Is it possible to paste the contents of a text file into a text area form field, and then run an asp/vbscript routine to update the database.
The text file contents to be pasted would be in the format:
1234, Y
1235, N
1236, Y
I am ok with updating the database,what I would like to know is how to split the text into individual items - is there some kind of read line function.
when I´m typing a text data in to the form and I press Enter to go
to a new line and after when the data is submited in the DB I go to PHPMyAdmin and the field looks like this:
line1: text
line2: text2
etc.
But in ASP it looks like this:
line1: text1 text2
What the hell is this now

View Replies View RelatedI am working on a asp and sql website that I did not make. It runs an asp based content management system, where users can enter news articles. They enter the "body" into a text box/area and can add images separatly. The image will show up to the to left of the article.
This goes into a SQL database, and gets pulled out by asp for the webpage. I want to make it so a user can add in an image into the body of the article ( like in a word document ) and have it show up where they put it. What is the easiest way to do this. Both easy on me and the user.

View Replies View RelatedI have been having problems with an ASP page that extracts a newsletter from an Access DB. The record in the database has the proper format, meaning that after a paragraph, you can see that the enter key was pressed twice.
Problem is that when the newsletter is shown on the internet, all of the paragraphs have been run together. I don't know why this is happening.
I am currently using a combination of classic ASP and Access for coming up with a ride reports system for my cycling club - I have a control panel on the website which allows admin members to update the database via forms boxes (especially multi-line boxes)
However, the only problem I am having is that when in the control panel when I include text (with line spaces), and submit this to my Access database (in a Memo field), the output doesn't include any paragraphing or line spaces and it comes out in one unwieldy block of text. way that I can include paragraph formatting within this method?
I am new here and need some help in formating text stream coming out of MySQL database. Following is the row I have in MySql database.....
"one - two
Three four
five"
My asp code reads this string as...
"one - tow Three four five"
For some reason I am losing all the carriage returns and line feed. Asp puts the whole string in one line. Is there any asp function that I can use to keep my original text formating that I have in the database? Code:
I have a text area within a form that collects user data and enters this
into access db. Later this text is pulled out and put onto a page.
What I want to achieve is some formatting options for the user but I only
want CR and strong and no other formatting options available.
I made a website using ASP and MS Access in the back-end. One of the functions of the website is to post some news by using a web based form. Copy, paste, submit and voila! It works fine, However, Since it is mainly text that is pasted on the form, I would like to be able to keep the original formatting of the text and not to have it displayed, as is now, all together without spaces. Can anyone tell me how to achieve that wonderfull thing. Is it an Access problem or an ASP thing?
