i'm trying to make a menu system for an application but i have no clue where to start. this is what my current menu looks like:
the way i built this menu is through a bunch of if statements and whenever i add a new page, i have to edit this huge list making it really tedious and annoying. how can i make this a database driven menu to make adding menus much easier?
I need to create a dynamic menu (used on the live site) within the CMS system that I am building in .asp. I have a DB which has a table that holds the pageID, pageName & page content, but now I need to somehow allow the editor to change the order of the menu i.e. if they add a new page they need to be able to move this page up to say 2nd in the menu list.
I imagine I will need to read out the content of this table and have a form in the recordset with a button for ‘Up’ and a button for ‘Down’ with a hidden ig i.e ?status=up. Then somehow if the ‘Up’ button is pressed that particular page will shift up one place in the list.
I also presume I will need a second table which will hold the page ID & sort Number. The problem is I am a little confused as to how I would actually go about coding a link between the tables in order to the re-orgainse the menu depending on what button is pushed. the menu will then obviously be read out on the main live site as the left hand side navigation.
I have created a drop down menu populated from a database. Would this warrant posting?
View Replies View RelatedI am currently developing a final year project which is a web based
tracking system tracking exam questions. I am using IIS as the
server, MS access for the database, and ASP with VBScript for the
scripting side of things.
One of the things I want to do would be to e-mail a user/moderator

any previous expierence in this? i don't even know where to start.

View Replies View RelatedI have Windows 2000 Server. Running IIS 5. I created a ASP file that connects to a database and when i go to view it, It either says that there is a error in the code on like 106.
Which is only an "End If" command, Or it will say that this page needs to be posted on a web server that supports ASP. Well.. I have indexing service running, And I know for a fact that the code in the page is correct because it works on other 2000 server.
I have a webapp. that holds a lot of documents. Some of the documents needs to be produced from a database on-the-fly, some are static documents like PDF, Word documents, etc... In the end, a user can do a request to produce a large amount of documents as one huge PDF document. Today the creation of documents is working, but all code is done in ASP.
In Visual Basic, I was thinking about making an ActiveX EXE server that generates the PDF document. The ASP page will be polling until the file is generated. When this is done, the file will be displayed. I have only written down my thoughts on the subject. Is there a good way to do this?

View Replies View Relatedis it possible to do a insert, add, and a redirect all on the same page?
for example... signup.asp. there's a text box labeled Acctid. If you don't have an acctid please enter "0000" otherwise enter one. This box is used to see if they have an existing account in the database by using an UPDATE query and if they don't it does an INSERT query with acctid = 0000 for all non customers. What I want the if.then.else statement to do is to
If acctid = "0000" then
conn.execute acct_add
(and if sucessful to response.redirect "/yay.asp"
Else if NOT acctid = "0000" then
conn.execute acct_update
(but I want it to return an error if the update wasn't sucessful either because the acount doesn't exist or watever and if the update was sucessful to response.redirect "/yay.asp") END IF

I am developing an ASP page for clients. I will host the page on my
server, but it must appear on the clients' websites. That means that
the user should not be redirected to my site, but instead should remain
on the client's site. Or at least appear that they are remaining on the
client's site.
One thing that would be acceptable is to host the page on the client's
site, but have it hit my site to get the data. I have looked into
XMLHTTP and also just having the ASP page hit a remote SQL Server
instead of a local one, but haven't made any decisions yet.
