I have just got back into ASP development after a years break and am playing catchup. I am developing a simple page with combo boxes on it, so that when it is processed it searches a database for all records between the chosen entries in the combo boxes. However I am also trying to stop the page from returning errors when a user clicks submit without choosing any entries from the combo boxes. I am trying to get the page to just re-display itself with a simple error message on the page informing the user that they have to choose an option from both combo boxes.
I am using DW8 to create a simple database-driven site using IIS and ASP vbscript. I have created a virtual directory in IIS and I have created the DSN, connection and appropriate recordsets. The problem is I keep getting the following error:
The line the error refers to is always the connection string. And it seems to be intermittent. Sometimes the page works fine, other times I get this error - but I can't figure out why. I always make sure that I save my files and put them to the server so I really can't work this out.
I am working on a date function, which takes a YYYY-MM-DD input and splits it into dd,mm,yyyy format. e.g:
string1 = "2006-10-20"
Function stripDate(str) str_len = len(str) if str_len = 10 then str = replace(str, "-","") str_yr = left(str,4) str2 = right(str,4) str_mo = left(str2,2) str_dy = right(str2,2) stripDate = str_dy & "," & str_mo & "," & str_yr else Exit Function end if End Function
test = stripDate(string1) sample output: 20,10,2006
I then want to pass the sample output into another function, but in order to do that, the date variables must be split with speech marks as follows:
"20","10","2006"
but I can't work out how to include that in the stripDate function so that it wraps the variables in speech marks. Whenever I try to include the speech marks the code returns the usual error about unterminated string constants e.g. if I replace the final line of the above function with this:
How do I format a specific string and add dashes inside the string. The output I get from the recordset, for example, is 007275153. I want to format the output as 00-727-5153.
Also, if a string in a database is C-1411C1, how can I remove the "C-" at the beginning of the string?
How do i check the whether a string entered...matches a fixed format that i have created? suppose i have to checkk whether a string entered is of this format.. F-## ( where '#' is any digit)..
For example if the user enters F-02 ..Then the check would return TRUE.. If the user enters F02 ...Then the check would return false.. I would like to do this check on the server side...ASP ( not javascript)]
I have a 20 character string that I need to format in a certain way. For instance, here is the raw string:
12345678901234567890
And I need it to look like this:
123-45-6789-01-234-5-67-8-90
It wouldn't bother me if the number was entered into a text box without any dashes, but then before I submit the number to the db I would need to enter the dashes in the correct spots. Can anyone give me an idea of how I can accomplish this?
I have a client with a database whose author didn't do any type of form verification. Hence, in the "price" field, there are values such as 213000, $32,400, 5000 USD, etc.
What I am hoping is that some might tell me how to take a string, cut out all white space first, then go character by character to test for INT. Once done, count the characters, insert a "," where appropriate, and display on a page? Can this be done?
I am using ("Microsoft.XMLHTTP") to grab content from a site and display it on my site, the issue I have and have had for weeks now is that on the original page the sign "£" exists and when I get it to my site it is displayed as a "?".
If I find the ASC code for the ? and replace on that it still does not work :-(((
I have tryed all the usual method of fixing this with no success...
anybody had this issue or know where I might start to look to fix it ???
I've created a form where people can request samples of our product to be sent to them. I've created a list page where it lists out all of the current requests that still need shipped. In my database I have a field called shipped with data type yes/no.
I made another page which lists all requests that need shipped based off that shipped field (yes/no.) From this list there's a link to view the details of each record. On that details page I'd like to include a check box that we can simply click to mark the shipped field to yes so that it won't show up on the list of stuff that needs shipped anymore.

I created a form that puts a text in a sql db just like it is typed in the text field. So when I type: Het potentiëel is dat er .... puts this exact in the database.
An other page takes the value from the db to create a VML/XML based page. but this goes wrong on the words with punctuation marks like ë.
If I look at the source it shows exact what is placed in de db: Code:
One thing I've started to notice lately is that asp seems to be very sensitive to how quotation marks are layered. Does anyone know where I can find out when to use double quotes and when to use single quotes? Code:
SelectSQLB = "SELECT * FROM TeamRosters WHERE IDNumber = Session(' 'TeamMember' & LoopCounter')"
Is the line that's giving me trouble and I'm not really sure how to layer it. Every logical combination I've tried has produced a different sort of error. Note that TeamMember# is a session variable and loopcounter is a local variable used to select which TeamMember# session variable to use. Before I've noticed that pretty much it works like this: " ' ' " but that was for two layers deep. What's the syntax for going three layers in?
I am looking for a way that I can trap the single quotation mark. If an encoder uses single quotation mark on a textbox field, it always give me an error because I use single quotes on the SQL statement.

I have the tables set up in Access, viewing in column format on ASP pages but now the company wants the schedule reports to be in a wall-calendar type format. I've searched and found calendar scripts but I need one that's creates a table resizable to a report size format. Using the existing MS Access db I've written is also a plus.
How can i detect if a database already has a primary key value that i want to insert. ie. i want to insert 5 into a database that already has a primary key set to 5.
We have many forms on our site that users can fill out and ask questions, request information etc. but somehow, we receive a lot of junk mails (more than two hundreds) within two weeks through these forms. I don't know hot to stop these junk emails.
I want to make a simple simple asp page. All I want is when the page loads it does "net stop <service>". The code is below, it is not running as IUSR_<machine>, I am authenticating as Administrator yet the service does not stop.
The blank page just loads with no errors and the service remains running, what am I missing? I am completely new to ASP, I just want one simple page for this purpose. Code:
I dont want to start the sessions when my asp page is run....how do I do that...can I add something at the start of the page which will not enable the session
