Is there a way to dynamically add drill down lists and input boxes to the HTML page. For example if the user clicks in a button it adds a new line contains one drilldown list + two input text boxes?
I want to empty the forms fields when a user clicks on the back button. I wrote some js that will do this, but I can't figure out the right time to execute the script. If I do it on the submit form event, the values entered do not get posted, if I do it on the <body> onLoad event, the form name isn't recognized (the page posts to itsself). I also tried putting the js in a <script> tag inline just after the form, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.
When I try to open an Excel file from ASP thro' HREF it works fine. But i give the same file in Response.Redirect it says "page cannot be displayed" even when the file exists. Is this related to server configuration?
I have a website set up that can pull data from Access database tables and display them on the webpage depending on users' selection. Is it possible to have ASP open up Microsoft Excel and dump the data into it, plot graphs, calculate averages, etc.?
Can anyone help with this? Here is the code I am using. The problem is, where it checks if a file exists, it always goes to else. Even if the file is there, it won't open the file, goes straight to else part of statement.
<% If Session("strLogID") = "" Then Response.Redirect("http://website/pages/login.asp")
I am creating a webpage and have a form where a visitor will choose a day, month, and year. I want to pass the data from the form into an asp page which will process it and put it into a string and open the excel file requested. The excel file to open will depend on the day, month, and year chosen in the form.
is it possible to open word or excel from an asp page in the client side having word or excel installed only on the server side?if possible, can u post an example ?
i'm trying to have excel open up a webpage which basically contains a table.
in excel 2000 if i specify content type text/csv this works by displaying an open/save dialog box and clicking open, launches excel and displays data as a table (desired result ) however in machines with excel 2002+ excel simply displays the html code.
trying to specify application/excel opens an excel plug-in inside the browser which poses a problem becouse the excel has links to pdf file that obscure the plug-in.
I have the following code at the top of my page. Is there a way to force Excel to open the spreadsheet? Presently, it opens within the browser window. I know it can be saved etc., but I would rather have Excel receive the data.
I'm running IIS5 on a Win2K server, and I want to have an ASP page that creates new users. I have some simple code to test this, but am getting a "500" error when I run it. The ASP looks like:
<%
strDomain ="Foo.com" strUser ="Foo1"
' Create new user with password Set oDomain = GetObject("WinNT://" & strDomain) Set oUser = oDomain.Create ("User", strUser) oUser.SetPassword = "password" oUser.SetInfo %>
Just for this testing, I've added IUSR_machinename to the Administrators group, but am still getting the 500 error.
user clicks the link which brings him/her to a secure page (let's call it page "X") which requires login session. If user is not logged in, he/she is redirected to a login page. how can I make user get redirected back to that original page (names "X") which threw him/her to login form?
I tried something like getting url name of page X and redirect to login with that name variable. After login, it gets redirected back to the page that sent variable. But it did not always work.
I've noticed that Internet Explorer adds a number in square brackets to files downloaded from the internet and opened directly (i.e. by clicking 'Open' and not 'Save'). This creates a big problem with downloading Excel spreadsheets as square brackets are not a valid filename character inside Excel worksheet name.
When I click open, it opens the excel sheet with the sheet name as .xls[Sheet and the excel filename as Sheet[1].xls.
Then we get the following error....
While renaming a sheet or chart, you entered an invalid name. Try one of the following:
- Make sure the name you entered does not exceed 31 characters. - Make sure the name does not contain any of the following characters: : / ? * [ or ] - Make sure you did not leave the name blank.
I would like export the records retrieved from database to excel worksheets. unfortunately, each worksheet will support until 65535 records and I have about 1 million of records to write. So I have to write into few worksheets in the same workbook. But I cant get the way how to do it. I manage to create the new worksheet in my workbook but I cannot write content into it. How can I do so?
Below is the example output source (test.asp): ....
I need to write a program that can create an excel file and copy all the data obtains from a database to the excel file. Then save and close the excel file or do all of the above in the backgroud. if you have written similar program or know where I can find the sample code for this feature.
i am using the following code to generate a xls file using the content type now when the user opnes the file at his pc it takes long time to open..if the no of records in file is large does the use of html tags has slow down the process of opening in excel. Code:
One of my programmers is using Office Web Components in classic ASP to create, fill and format an Excel spreadsheet. Everything is fine except when he creates Merged cells the performance drops dramatically. He has investigated the 'Center Across Cells' alternative but cannot get it working using Office Web Comonents.
Has anyone come across this problem or even better has a solution?
What is the best way to count how many times an image has been clicked? I have an image gallery on a site and want to count how many times each image has been clicked (clicking pulls up the full size image in a window) so that I know which are popular and which are not. I though about wimply adding an extra field to the database which serves up the image details, and incrementing a number by 1 each time a user clicks it just before the image is served up. What are the chances of this falling over if two people were to click the same image at the same time?
so I know I have a book behind me that tells how to collect data from users that visit my site.I want to track my PPC campaigns.
So I know I can gather the users ip address, date time. All campaigns have a "?source=abc" so I know i can collect which campaign the click came from.But aside from that, can I collect stuff like... the users ISP? how long their session lasted? The search phrase used? Operating System? Platform? I'm feeling that my competition is clicking my high dollar compaigns and I wanna stop it.
I have a page that performs asp paging and displaying name and a checkbox. I want to track how many checkboxes user check throughout whole recordset. Ok Here is the catch. I need to show to a user a count as he performs paging. I tried to use cookies in javascript but i was not successfull.
I have list of products listed from a search criteria, Now I wanna show the client TOP VIEWED LIST OF PRODUCTS or number of hits for each product. So the page hits using the counter component will give me the hits for the entire which has all the products.
