Formatting Phone Number
I have a database column that contains phone number information, but it has no delimeters (5555555555 instead of 555-555-5555). How can I add them?

View RepliesI've been messing around with this for a while now and can't figure it out. I'm trying to use this code to pull a person's phone number out of a database:
<%
call GetAddrInfo ("BenPhone_v",datavalue)
if datavalue = TRUE then
%>
<%call GetAddrInfo ("BenPhone",datavalue)%>
Phone Number: <%=datavalue%>
<%end if%>
What it returns is an unformatted phone number (ie: 5555555555) Nothing I've tried will format the number. I think the problem is the code that's being used to retrieve data from the database, but I'm not sure: Code:
I have created an MS-Access DB that holds data items including phone number and currency. Utilzing the input mask function in MS-Access, and using Access to input data, keeps the data looking clean, i.e. $5,678.32 and (555) 555-1234. When I read this information from an ASP page into my repeatable region table (I'm using Dreamweaver btw), the data is displayed as 5678.32 and 5555551234. How can I format the data on my displayed ASP page to be formatted as currency and a proper phone number mask?

I have seen other poster's solutions to this question, but cannot make heads or tails of it so I thought maybe someone could answer my question specifically. On an ASP Details page, I have dynamic text with a company's address, phone and fax numbers. I want the phone and fax numbers to be formatted like (###) ###-#### on the screen. They are entered in MS Access in 10-digits only with an input mask to format them in Access.
I am using DWMX 2004 and am not a programmer or coder by any means. I create my recordsets in DWMX in simple mode, so if you can help me, please be specific. My field names are MbrMainPhone and MbrFax if that helps.

i am running into the problem to check in which way the phone number was entered 720-908-0987 any idea how i can check and make the change.
Does anybody know if there is a function in ASP to display a phone number in this format xxx-xxx-xxxx ?
View Replies View RelatedOur application tracks contact information. One of our clients, a car
dealership, has asked about being able to enter a lastname and phone number
and getting as much of the main form filled out as possible, "Hi, thanks for
stopping by Demaux Motors. Before we get started, can I get your phone
number, please? Oh, HI Joe, you still live on Gingerbread lane..?" etc etc
etc. Filling out the form is easy - sql query, javascript, blah blah blah -
getting the data is another. My question is three-fold:
1: I know that if you go to Google and type a phone number, you'll get a
query result back with address, city, state, etc. The documentation for the
Google APIs are written for .NET...anyone have any experience with those
APIs in classic ASP?
2: Is there some other service that provides this same functionality?
I run an eCommerce site and I have a checkout form that requests the customers phone number. I have it set up as one whole field, not broken up: 3,3,4 - too hard to re-work. Therefore a customer is free to enter anything:
(987) 555-1234
9875551234
(9875551234
etc.
I want to format the phone number before it is saved to the database in the following format:
987-555-1234
Basically, I need to strip the number of everything except the numbers and then add a "-" after the 3rd and 6th number?
I have a text field in a web page I am working on that seems to be calculating phone numbers before inserting them into an Access database. i.e., 867-5309 will result as -4442 in the Access text field. My guess is that the webserver or client is processing it before inserting it. Is there any way to stop this other than using a validation script?

I’m having an issue saving/reading an xml file.The source of this file is a the parameter of an object. Through the UI the user can change the value (xml string) of this parameter.
The problem is that the parameter needs the xml with > , < , and " instead of the > , < , " chars. However when I save it, the xml dom and even the fso save it with the actual xml chars. Other than a literal search, is there an easy way to convert the file to have the special chars?

This is being entered into a MySQL database, so I have already replaced the ' with '.
I am requesting a variable for the users' network username:
<%=Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")%>
This returns the following:

Instead I would like it to return J.Bloggs on it's own with out the "NETWORK" bit so basically I am saying how do I cut out the first 8 characters of a variable.
I have users typing in information into a text box. Sometimes this information can be lengthy and contain simple formatting such as spacess between lines and line numbering. For example:
1. List item number one
2. List item number two
I then have a report page that prints out this information. Unfortunately, the line spacing doesn't show up in the report. It's just all jumbled together. I'm just using <%= Notes %> to show the db field. Is there a way that I can show the formatting that was originally entered or do I need to use some kind of word processor like I am using to type this post?
I would like to know how to format phone numbers and ssn numbers in textbox. That is when I enter the phone number, it is going to the database as 000,000,0000. I want to have it as either 0000000000 or 000-000-0000. Likewise, for ssn also. I am really fed up with javascript, somehow, it doesn't work well for me. Always, get page errors and it is not that easy to find out the errors in javascript.....
View Replies View Relatedi have a date in the following format: 12/1/2003
how do i reference just the 'day' portion of this date - in other words '1'
if the date was 12/10/2003, then i would just want the '10'
I'm developing in ASP/VBScript using DreamweaberMX, w/ an Access 2000 DB as the
data source. The source of the data is coming from a third party, which I get as
a CSV and import into the database, updating it weekly.
Since I have no control over how the data is collected, I'm not sure how to fix
this problem, but here it is.
This is a database of movies and among the many fields I import is one for the
movie's length, expressed in HH:MM:SS. This comes into the Access DB as a
Date/Time format, which means all the dates, displayed raw in the DB, look like
"12:09:52 AM". Through data formatting, however, displaying it to the client as
HH:MM:SS is no problem. (Display "12:36:00 AM" as military time (00:36:00) tells
me the movie is 0 hrs, 36 minutes, 0 seconds long. Follow?)
But in an update form, which we'll use to correct errors (and there always seem
to be errors in the running times of movies), I can't figure out how to display
it in the HH:MM:SS format in an INPUT field and have it submit without throwing
a data type mismatch error. It seems to want to display as "12:36:00 AM"
Converting the field to a text type is out of the question at this point, so I
know I need to do some type of string manipulation prior to update. However, I'm
lost ...
Any ideas?
When e-mailing invoices and estimates, is there any way to customize the
presentation of the e-mail beyond changing the message? Specifically,
I'd like to add some html so the receiver can click on a link to pay
online. As it is, I can type the URL in the message, but it appears only
as text to the reader, not a hotlink, which, unfortunately, is quite
vexing to some of my clients.
It would also be nice to add a company logo, etc. to the email body.
On this same subject, is it possible to send the entire invoice/estimate
as HTML rather than an attached PDF? I haven't seen these options
anywhere.
