Does anyone use a funtion to highlight search terms (if they have a search facility on their site). Basically, I would be sending the search terms from a form field into a results page.
If there are results I would like the search terms to be highlighted. One problem that I could think while using "replace" is that capitalisation would not be maintained.
i am developing a search engine(ASP with SQL SERVER) for my project . My objective is to search for a data and it should display the result and highlighting the search text in different color. But when i use the search text with more than one word, the result is highlighting only the last word of the search text.
Example - If i search for "Opal" , the search result highlighting all the words with "opal", But when is search "Opal Service", the search result is highlighting only the "service".
Here the "Opal" and "service" are different identities, i will search these two words with AND condition . Code:
I have a simple script which boiled down to highlighting search terms... Code:
if Trim(Request.QueryString("search"))<>"" then
cont = Replace(cont,Request.QueryString("search"),"<span style=""background-color:#ff0"">"&Request.QueryString("search")&"</span>",1,-1,1)
end if
this worked fine, however if the string I was searching was within an <a> tag, the inevitable would happen and an error would come up. I was wondering if anyone knows a way or if there is a script readily available to tackle this issue?
I am looking for Site Search Script, which should include paging of results and highlighting the search text.

I have developed a website with ASP.NET Jscript. Im fairly new to development so i used DreamweaverMX and Webmatrix which was very useful. Now I want to enhance it further by adding a search facility into my website and thus providing users to actually find contents within my webpages and display the same.
View Replies View RelatedI have one TEXT file that I use to log download information from website.
The file will have unique Login ID for the downloads. When the user will
come for next time for download the LOG entry should go under the same
section (same ID number) so for this I need to search the text file for the
ID and if the ID is found the program should append the NEW LOG entry to the
end of Section. (section mark can be a line of ***** ) (mean just before the
***** line)
I want to search text field and highlight the text. This is the code,
Code:
strText = cstr(Request.form("strText"))
strText = uCase(strText)
strTextWhere = ""
strTextWhere = " and (Specialisation
like '%"&strText&"%') "
I have a lot of data in different cases. I can do the search, let say i want to search by keyword project, it will display all the "project", "Project" and "PROJECT". But now i can only hightlight the "PROJECT" only. I think this is because of ucase(strText). Is there any way for me to highlight all (either lower, upper and mixed cases)?
I am trying to do a simple text search
The Table I am searching is called 'Items' and the Field I am searching is called 'Item Title'
My search sql string is as follows:
strSQL = "Select * From Items WHERE Item Title LIKE '%var2%'"
However I keep getting the following error message:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Driverserror '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Item Title LIKE '%var2%''. /showroom/asp/showroomSearch.asp, line 45
Is this error being caused by the fact that the field I am searching has a space in the name? If not, please can someone tell me where I am going wrong as this code seems correct to me.
For example:
The text to be searched is the following:
Text 1:
Hello world! what a nice day today. But I like to sit in front of computer and doing some web design. Now I have encountered some technical problems and would like to get some helps from the experts.
Text 2:
I like fishing.
Text 3:
Baseball season is over.
Text 4:
The winter snow storm is coming.
Search Keyword: snow.
Search result is Text 4
Search Keyword: I
Search result is Text1 and Text2
At the end, the key word should highlighted with a different color in the paragraph.
How would I do about this?

I have to make a site search function for my website. User types a keyword, and the search function searches through all the static pages for the keyword. The result of the search has to display the URL relating to the keyword, which the user can click to read the contents.
I had no idea how to go about doing it, finally I thought of using a textfile containing the word, and its related URL in the format: Code:
I've created a little search engine that works fine, but I want to highlight the keywords in an article.
Using the replace function is OK, but its not very good when covering different cases. Its fine on single word searches but no good with multiple words.
eg. if I search for "dog", I can do a replacement on "dog", "DOG" and "Dog" using the replace function.
If I was to search for "black dog", I need to cover all possible variants. ("Black Dog", "BLACK DOG", "black dog", "Black dog", "black Dog")
Is there any way of getting this to work?

I have setup a simple site in which users input data to an access database, and then the database results are shown on another page in a table. One of the fields in the databse is Date Added, using the date/time data type.
I would like the table to show new results with a different background colour for a period of time, say one week? Code:
The very same page has 2 iFrames opening another page called tripledemoduo.asp. So there are 2 tripledemoduo.asp's opening within the 2 iFrames. Within a tripledemoduo.asp page there are the textboxes for inserting the keywords.
See the picture.
is it possible to move out the 6 textboxes from the iFrames and make 1 set of 6 instead of 2 sets of 6? That would make my life easier because I use this to compare two texts side by side by searching keywords. For example I put one keyword in red in both iFrames.

that the user write in search engine.
I have this problem in controlling a the text in a Text Area. How can I do
that for example the field size is 200, when it reaches 50 it automatically
goes to the next line. Bcoz im having problem when viewing it in my report,
it continuesly views in a strieght line and im having problem in printing.
When using ASP's FileSystemObject to create text files, I am unable to get user submitted text (in Hebrew) to save as anything other than "?????". The text file is being saved in Unicode and setting the CodePage in ASP proved unsuccessful. Strangely, hard coded Hebrew text in an ASP variable does add to the text file correctly.
Any ideas of why this happens and how to get it to work correctly?
I am trying to create a parametric search within a table (in the column headings). My first page (search.asp) allows you to choose parameters from a dropdown box, such as package and volts. You click "search" and it reads the Access dbase to yield the results.
The results page (results.asp) displays the information based on the parameters. Under the package column heading, I have the same drop down box, and I am able to once again choose the package I want and the table will refresh. Code:
I have a text area which I want to limit the number of words or number of text entered into it. Is this possible?

I have a form on asp page that pulls info from a DB when the page loads.
It them puts the info into text boxes on the page that are editable by the
user.
The only problem I have is say in the description text box it should
read "HP Laserjet 5Si" , it always cuts the text off where it just says "HP"
.. It does this on all the text boxes? I can't seem to figure out why it
is doing it. Here is the sample code:
With quotes around <%= vdesc%>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" id="desc" size="45" value="<%=
vdesc%>"></td>
And I tried it without.
I have text in a field coming from a database. The text has various
forms such as:
text1
text1 or text2
text1 or text2 or text3
text1; or text2
text1; or text2; or text3
etc...
how can I parse this with a reg ex? I tried this:
(.+);? or
but it only captures 1 submatch (text1) and only if theres an "or"
after it
I'd like to get 1 submatch for each piece of text separated by the
"or", just the text itself if there is no or.
Anyone know how to do it?
I have this problem in controlling a text in a Text Area. How can I do that, for example the field size is 200, when it reaches 50 it automatically goes to the next line. Because im having problem when viewing text in my report, it continuesly views in a straight line. Can you give me ASP code for that.
