I have a variable in an INI file (fileLocation) which will point to the location where i can store some temporay files.
This fileLocation variable has a value "%USERPROFILE%Local SettingsTemp" >Now, how do i get the actual expansion of this variable (for ex:i.e : C:Documents and Settings<username>Local SettingsTemp).

I would like to read a client environment variable... How can i do this ?
I can read server environment variable using
<%=request.servervariables("LOGON_USER")%>
but concerning client environment ?
My goal is to retrieve my local machine's %USERNAME% environment variable
from ASP page.
When I enter http://RemoteServerName/testusername.asp?id=%USERNAME% directly
into the IE Browser URL box, %USERNAME% is repalced with the local machine
ID. However <a href="http://RemoteServerName/testusername.asp?id=%USERNAME%"> get mahcine id</a> in an html file and use Request.Querystring("id") to retrieve it in testusername.asp page, it returns "%USERNAME%". I guess IE browser is smart enough to replace %USERNAME% with the local environment variable value before sending URL string to the web server when you type directly into the Browser URL box.My question is , is there any way to retrieve local machine's environment variable, %USERNAME% from ASP page?
Is it possible to read any ASP variable from a javascript file (.js) ?

View Replies View RelatedA week or so ago, I needed to find the HTTP_REFERER environment variable to check and see if a user is coming from a certain website:
If Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")_
= "http://localhost/mydir/page1.aspx" then
response.write "Click on a menu choice"
else
response.write "check back later
end if
I have a page nested in an IFRAME (for example framepage1.aspx or ..asp), and I need to check to see if a user is coming to (not coming from ) a certain page where the framepage1.aspx is (the framepage1.aspx could appear in not only page1.aspx, but page2.aspx ,or page3). I'm not sure how to accomplish this given that the
HTTP_REFERER checks on address only incoming.

View Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to allow a second developer access to existing html and
asp files in the office from a development point of view. At the moment, I
have been developing locally and then uploading my files to my web host but
I now need to create a usuable office environment which allows a second
developer to work my folder structures and files.

Office XP professional and use this to server files locally in a staging
environment before pushing the files to the remote web host.
Am I on the right track?

Users in our load-balanced environment get to our home page via web.vzcorp.com where a persistent cookie gets set. bedineta is 1 of the machines in this setup. You can unofficially get to our home page that way too. Question I have is if the user comes in thru bedineta how can I get their machine to recognize the cookie I set when they came thru web.vzcorp.com? They come thru the same block of asp. I've played around with the cookies.Domain and Cookies.Path setting with no luck.

View Replies View RelatedBefore I was able to use Microsoft Devleopment Environment to debug my asp code. I did that by going to Microsoft Development Environment 6.0, go to Debug menu -> Processes, and will see inetinfo.exe and then I can attach it. But lately, (and I don't know if it's got anything to do with the fact that I have recently installed Norton Internet Security and Norton Anti Virus) when I opened the Processes window, the list is blank, and the Machine drop down is also empty.
If I hit Properties or Refresh, I'll get the "Development Environment has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" error, and the app will close. If I hit the Machine button, even if I find the machine, it'll say "Unable to connect to the machine". Has anyone had similar problems before?

View Replies View RelatedIs there a way that I can read the current url.
I have an asp page currently such as default.asp?x=1&y=2&z=3
Now I want to keep the existing parameters and attach another parameter
to it and resend to default.asp
As the original parameters are dynamic, and may or may not be
generated, the only way is to read the current url and to simply add my
new parameter such as h=5 to the url.
I don't know how to read the current url.
I tried Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME") but that didn't include
the parameters. i.e. it just returned the default.asp
