I have being working with making an edit field over the past few days. The edit function is now working fine. The edit fields that i have are for id, subject, notes, timedate.
All of the edit screens are one line text screens. What I want to do now is increase the size of the notes box to a larger textarea type box to make it easier to edit notes. The notes field in the db is a textarea field. Code:
How can I specify formatting restrictions for special fields like Postal Code
(format X1X 2C2) or date input field MM/DD/YYYY? I have Acces DB with these specs, but when I used FP2002 Database Interface Wizard, it ignores these. Also I am unable to "edit" any of the records utilizing pages generated by this wizard.
There is an error that it will not accept empty fields. I have no problem adding data (even if some fields are empty) or deleting records.
I have the following line of code that is part of a form that displays a record from a database;

I need to validate an item number from a form field against a MS SQL database
I am using a 2 page process to print barcodes from an entered item number on page 1 and need to only use valid item numbers from the database. If they enter a wrong number I want to give them a page telling them of the error.

I currently have a web page that pulls in job vacancies from a search form all written in asp and the database is in access. I will be placing an extra field which will say "apply now" and on selecting this you will be taken to a new page where you can fill in your details and email them to the employer.
My problem is I need to know how to get a field in the form that will automatically fill in the title of the vacancy being applied for from the database.
im working on a database driven website that uses an access database of links and search keywords that users can search through to find a particular page within my site. the search box is in a table and the results come up in an iframe without the page refreshing aside fromt the iframe itself. at the moment when i type a search into the text field and press enter the results come up as i want them to within the iframe.
however if i press the search button next to the text field section of the form as opposed to pressing enter the database does not find any results yet the no results found error still appears within the iframe. i have tried the same searches and pressed enter and they work but as soon as i try to click the search button they do not.
here is the search form code so any of you geniuses out there who can help me can see if any code is missing: Code:
I am trying to pass a hidden field value on a form into another field on the
form so that it can then be inserted in the database, to enable me then to
reference that number at a later date.
(The hidden value (1 for example) would then automatically get passed to the
other input field.)
The code for the text field that allows users to type an number into it for
submission to the db is below, but what code do i need within the hidden
field to populate this text field below so that users do not have to type the
number in? Code:

I have built input fields inside a while not.eof loop
and the name is built from using <%="name"&i%> and the value is a product_id
from the database.the i is then incremented in the loop, resulting in <input name="name1, <input name="name2
and so on. this works no probs, however i haven't got a clue on how to collect this dynaimcally named
input field when it arrives at the form action address page.
I was thinking some kind of for loop but am not sure, and again am not sure where to put the <%="name"&i%> bit
to count or grab the input fields info.
i.e newname= REquest.Form(<%="name"&i%>)
how to validate a field to make sure that its numbers only. Its basically a form that asks for the user to input the scores. Now , i realiase that you'd have to be fairly thick to enter a letter as the score instead of a number but, i'd like a tidy error message instead of the type mismatch error (that could confuse newbies even more) just incase . I looked into javascript validation but, i really need to do it serverside .
View Replies View RelatedI have an ASP that retrieves data from a SQL server database. Most of the columns are varchar. Some of the fields are meant to populate input fields. Here is my code.
<input type = "text" name="comments" value =<%= rstSimple.Fields("comments")%>
the value is returned, but only the 1st word. It seems it cannot process a space, but when I add the following to a table;
<td><%= rstSimple.Fields("defects").Value %></td>
the whole value is returned. Is there a limitation to the input field and how can I change it?

I have a website with a Guessbook section. Lately I noticed someone copy and pasted a long http address to promote viagra.. I believe he simply copy and paste the whole link into the text input field and submit several times. It created multiple entries in my guessbook.

When I try to insert data with "'" in between, say Dummy's.
I get an sql syntax error.
Heres my code:

Is there anyway I can go around it?
I am designing a website for a friend that has a backend database that holds information on all the stock they have and this gets displayed onto the page no problems.
The only problem I have is when they add new items to the database, a part of the form is a textarea and in this teaxtarea they copy generated code from paypal (a form that is generated by Paypal as a add to basket button).
The problem I have got is that if you try to add this textarea to the database field what you get is a image of the paypal button and no code.
I have tried the replace function, concatenated it in comments etc but all i get is a blank field or a image of the button.
I have a HTML page with a form on it. I have an ASP page that processes what a user has entered into the form (updates a database etc).
I now need a page that fits between these two pages to pre-process�the users input. I need to do it this way because I am not allowed to change either of the two existing pages.
I know how to read what the user has input into the form and I know how to pass control onto the next page.
What I have not been able to work out is how to change the user input and have those changes passed onto the next page as if nothing has happened (that is, the original ASP page just performs its request.form(�item�) calls as it always has but instead of seeing what the user actually typed in, it should see the changed text as created by the new pre process� page)
I have tried using a regular expression replace but can only successfully make this change a variable and not the original form input. Equally I cannot find a way of swapping the original form input string with the output variable from the replace.
Does anyone have any ideas on this one?

Pretty straight forward, its checking in order if the first element is left blank, is the correct technique:
== "", or is there more to it?
