Formating URL's
I would like to format URLS that are being retreived from a database. Here is an example:
bodytext="this is some text http://www.sitepoint.com/ this is some more text"
response.write(bodytext)
how could I change the URL (http://www.sitepoint.com/) to a link? So instead of http://www.sitepoint.com/, it would be <a href="http://www.sitepoint.com/">http://www.sitepoint.com/</a>. There are going to be an infinate amount of URL's (the user can type in any one) and it is just not the URL by itself.

I posted before about replacing special characters (esp. '). However, I am wondering how formatting can be kept when entering it into a textbox to store in a database?
When text with seperate paragraphs is entered, it comes out as one big paragraph later on.Is there anyway to address this? When I was doing my searching - somethign about chr(10) kept coming up, but I am not sure what this is.

I am importing a time into a sql datetime field from a text datafile using vbscript in an asp file. The time coming in will look like 8:00 or 3:30 or some other similar thing.
Because it is doesn't have am or pm associated with it, I have to force the issue or sql will assume am all of the time, and I am sure that no judge in our county is going to hear a case in the middle of the night!
So I have to add 12 hours to anthing that could be an afternoon time before I add it to the database to keep it from looking stupid in the display screens.

if we use formatnumber library function in asp it will format the no as per the number format defined in the locale of the server. For example:
some number format look like this 34,135,200 (comma seperated)
some looks like this 34 135 200(blank spaces seperated)
so does anybody have a vbscript function which do this job.

We have just signed up for salesforce.com and I need to somehow integrate the canned web-to-lead form from salesforce inside my login/registraiton system without messing up the existing 'join' form.My registration form is built on top of database while the alesform form isstatically generated form which is similiar but not exactly the same.
Post to two different urls at once for my main Join form.Or, perhaps 'hide' the salesforce.com form and somehow populate the values in the form and when the visitor clicks my Join form it also posts the sf form?

Is anyone aware of any sort of asp coding to deal with long URLs? I have a few asp that pull URLs from fields within a MS db, which then display on a width-limited table. Is there any way to wrap these long URLs such that my table doesn't get widened? e.g. wrapping at "/" or something similar?

has any one tried SE Friendly URLs with ASP & IIS? There's nothing like mod_rewrite for IIS. Ofcourse there are some 3rd party COM available but how many of us can use them on shared webservers?
So, is there a way to do it?
For those people who don't know what I'm talking about,
Normal URLs with querystrings look like
http://www.example.com/myPage.asp?id=1
while SE Friendly URL will look like
http://www.example.com/mPage/1/
The operative words being look like. You will see the 2nd URL in the browser's address bar but the server will take it as the 1st URL.

I am storing dates in a mySql database in the format yyyy-mm-dd. Now, I have set up so that this field is insert by a form.
It isn't very user friendly to have to type yyyy-mm-dd, how can I set up so that the user can enter format dd/mm/yyyy and it will automatically insert into the database as yyyy-mm-dd? I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004 and ASP.

I have a querystring that passes through the value 001 for example, the form on the receiving page need to display that number but with 1 added to it. i have
dim strnum
strnum = request.querystring("value")
strnum = strnum + 1
when displayed <%=strnum%> shows 2 instead of 002, and the zero's are very important, is there any number formating trick i dont know or another way of doing this?i thought about coding the first two zero's in before i call the strnum but this would mess things up when i get to 010 etc.

My application runs on ASP and the business logic is embedded in Dlls written in VB. The application hosts a list of articles for the user to view and these are accessible through some complex urls like "http://mysite/articles/category1?articleid=34512". I would like to denote a friendly url to these articles such as "http://mysite/articles/kb_TaxPlanning.asp". I am thinking of using an ISAPI filter to do the work for me. My friend was trying on using a httphandler, but it did not work. Please share with us the resources for creating an isapi filter for the same. Also how to use the same for the expected result?

Is there a way to add a header to a page that will change what text the
browser displays in the address field?
For example, say I point my browser to
http://www.domain.com/request.asp?a=1&b=2.
I would like IIS to send back the content generated by the page
request.asp, but would like the address is in the browser to read
"http://www.domain.com/request/index.asp"
Is there any possible way to do this? It seems like this should be possible.

Has anyone seen a good solution for Search Engine Safe URLs with Classic ASP? I've been looking for a while and short of using the 404 or installing tool on the server I was hoping there might be something else.In ColdFusion you can do a server.com/myfile.cfm/id/410 and it just works ... (well, after you parse the slashes)

I having trouble with some of my classic asp pages being dropped from google.Specifically, a set of four pages reused many times with the content identified via query strings (max 3 variables). I was under the impression that google no longer has a problem with urls appended with query strings. Does anyone know if it is possible to incur penalties for the "over use" of such pages? My product detail page for example is used to display 230 seperate products.
if using static urls may help get my pages re-indexed, but I have had difficulty finding a way to do this with classic asp. Could anyone suggest a suitable method or advise possible reasons for my google disaster?

When someone buys something on my site from a detail page, I show them a cart. When they hit continue shopping, the only option I have right now is to take them back to the detail page. What I really would like to do is take them all the way back to the catalog page they used to get to the detail.
