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'm using ASP 3.0,IIS and Java script.I have created some text boxes Dynamically using java script.So the text boxes has got the same name. This is the code i'm using for that..
aTable1=document.all('myTableTBody1')
aRow1 = aTable1.insertRow(aTable1.rows.length);
aRow =aRow1
aCell = aRow.insertCell(0);
aCell.align = "Left";
aCell.width = "5%";
aCell.innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='Course' size='20'>";
Problem is that when i'm doing client side validation using javascript its not taking values..Here 2 or 3 or 4 text boxes with the course will be created when i use
this code:
if (document.Qualificationdetails.Course.value == "") {
window.alert ("Enter Course !");
document.Qualificationdetails.Course.focus();
return false;
}
it does not give any validation...
I have an ASP (not ASP .NET) application that I have to modify. I am now using Visual studio .net as the editor. I would like to be able to work on the files together with a colleague and have versioning included in the ASP text files each time they are modified.
In addition, any comments that I make about the files as a whole in the editor should be automatically inserted in the ASP file as comments. Anyone knows an editor that can help me with this?

I have developed a search engine to search through an Access database.It uses three fields to say if the number of people is less than 300 then display these fields.
I have searched for an engine to do the same thing using a text file as oppossed to Access.I have only found examples saying you can search through text files to find character similar to the search term.Does anyone know if it is possible to pull a character form a text file and use ASP to say if its less or more than.
I want to read textfiles with ASP. But I want to do this in a special way.
I want to set a variable, for each line.
So for example:
Dim line1, line2, line3, line4, line5
line1 = Line 1 of the text file
line2 = Line 2 of the text file
line3 = Line 3 of the text file
line4 = Line 4 of the text file
line5 = Line 5 of the text file
How do I have to do this? .....

View Replies View RelatedI was under the impression if I had a page with several database queries to 3 different databases, it would be faster if I just had the queries cached to text files since the query result won't change that often and I build the cache manually when needed.
So my question is would it be faster to just include text files instead of doing multiple Access and SQL queries on a web page?

View Replies View RelatedCan I use FileSystemObjects to Read Text Files on my server rather than just on my local drive?
View Replies View RelatedI have several text files on my server and I would like to combine them into one text file by just appending each file to the end of the combo file. I know this should be possible, I just don't know how to approach it. Some combination of OpenTextFile and CreateTextFile?
View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to remotely get a pdf file - http://remoteServer/file.pdf - in order to store it into another server, maybe with Scripting.FileSystemObject
However the following code doesn't work properly:
------------
url = "http://remoteServer/file.pdf"
set xmlhttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
xmlhttp.open "GET", url, false
xmlhttp.send ""

as xmlhttp.responseText does not contain the whole file textStream, but only a part of it.
I need to know how to write a text file to a local machine. Here is my code:

View Replies View RelatedI have made a asp page that will read a db table and select certain fields concerning the current day's activities to be written to a text file. After the information about the current day's activities has been compiled, it is stored in a variable and written to a text file.
What I would like to do is create a text file for each day instead of over-writing the same one. Is there another Server.CreateObject method that will allow the 'creation' of a text file rather than just over-writing a text file that already exists? I would use "month(date)", "day(date)","year(date)" to append to a text file name to keep it unique.
Below is what I currently use to create a text file. But any new information will only overwrite what is already contained in the text file. Code:
im wondering if there is a method/command which can be used so that when an asp page is called, it can 'explode' content from a text file (.txt) onto a web page, thus enabling a n00b to alter the text within the file, rather than the web page itself?
Further more, if I wanted to incorporate the text which is exploded into a CSS to give it some style flava, how would I do this? Is it possible?
I'm struggling with this problem: in a website I developed, XML files are created by users of the site to describe. The creation is OK, the (new) file is present, but it can not be read by any website visitor.

It's a ASP script running on W2K, using the FileSystemObject component.

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?

View Replies View RelatedI am getting the above error in an asp page. Not sure why? The error details is given below. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI have a problem with special Slavic (CE) and German charaters.
On the first ASP page I have a FORM (user data...address...) that is posted to other ASP page.
Data is then collected with request.form(item), and then it is written into a DB. Well the problem is that special langauge specific charaters are tranformed into boxes or some other charaters.
I tried the response write to see if it is a problem with the DB part, but it isn't.
Anyway does anyone have a working solution, since I can't find any on the web. I experimentd with codepage and charset, but with no results. Also I tried to post the data to email script - there problem is there.
Is there a way to change encoding of a message created with CDO.Message, or
otherwise send international characters (unicode) in Textbody? The messages
I get now show question signs instead of international characters.
I'm taking the result of a form and send it by email.
The result is like this:résumé
Instead of that: résumé
On first ASP page there is a FORM that user must fill - personal data
& stuff, where users use special language related characters (like
Č, š, Ž...). When I post the form results to another ASP page
that collects the data with Request.form("field"), special characters
usually (90%) disappear, change into boxes or some other characters.
This page should then write the results to a DB or send it via email,
but since the characters are not encoded properly I did not write the
script yet.
I tried to set Codepage and charset, but it does not solve the
problem.
I can't seem to find a solution on the web since I am not sure what to
look for.
I hope somone can offer some advice. I have built a database accepting information through ASP from clients in UK, Germany France and Russia. I set the ASP codepage to 65001 and the charset to UTF-8 and thought this would be enough to present the information from the different sources correctly.
Russian and English are OK but German and French produse peculiar chars. Set the codepage to 1252 and Russian goes awry. Has anyone some pointers to setup a truly international CMS?
I am having problems sending values from a simple FORM to a database.
All is written in ASP, and I am doing some validations before it is
actually saved in my database.
It worked for several years, but now it won't accept international
characters. This means that the Norwegian word for boat "BÅT" ends up
like "BT" since the "Å" isn't sent.
I have done several testings, and it actually looks like the error
occurs immidiately after I hit the submit-button.
Does anybody know why this problem has occured?
