I am looking for a script in which I can replace any word in one table
(which corresponds) to other table with a link....
To for example when the name Bill Clinton is in a large piece of text in
TABLE1 and Bill Clinton is a row in TABLE2 then I want Bill Clinton in the
text to display as a link leading to a page where there's more info on Bill
Clinton from TABLE2
I was thinking something allong the way of: Code:
I'm trying to insert this text into a memo field:
Set cnn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
str = Server.MapPath("database/alumni.mdb")
strDB = "Provider=MICROSOFT.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & str
cnn.Open strDB
Set rst = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
sql = "INSERT INTO tblMessage (MessageID, UserID, PostTypeID, Subject,
DatePosted, MessageText, Active) Values ('" & vMessageID & "','" &
vUser & "', " & vPostType & ",'" & vSubject & "','" & vDatePosted &
"','" & vMessageText & "',0)"
rst.Open sql, cnn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
vMessageText = "This is a test just to see if it will blow up on a
large comment. Just testing again. Don't mind me."
Can I put this into my database field or is it too much and if not,
how do I solve this issue. I need to be able to post messages and
input for large fields.
I am creating a dynamic website using ASP and an MS Access backend DB. I am a little confused with how to go about things and am now facing the following problem. I want a large volume of text to be loaded dynamically on my page but don't really understand how i should be storing this text as the database fields will only hold a max 255 chars.
Obviously this is not large enough to store all of the text i may need and so where should i be storing the text? The only idea i had was storing the text in an external text file to which i point to with the database field (i.e. database holds the path to the txt instead of the actual text itself).....is this possible? or more to the point is there a better way? How would this normally be accomplished?
I am trying to create an ASP page that processes a large block of text that is posted to the page. The data block is approximately 500K. The only was I can figure to get the posted text into a string is using BinaryToString. Is there another way to just get the body of text that is posted?
View Replies View RelatedI have read that there can be a periodic problem when reading large varchar or text fields from SQL server (or memo fields from Access)--they can sometimes come up as empty strings.
What I have been unable to find out is whether this problem is still around in recent versions of MDAC (>= 2.8). Does anyone know whether this problem still occurs--is it still necessary to follow the steps in that aspfaq article?
I am planning to use some kinda of search using a piece of word, for example, in the database i have:
Contrução
Constituição
Confraternização
Costura
Corte
So if, in the search field, i type: "Con" it should bring me the following result:
Contrução
Constituição
Confraternização
I dunno if this kinda of search has a 'special' name, but I would like to see any example of this in ASP and a database (Access/MySQL/MSSQL), if someone has it easy in hands and would like to share
I've a large database that I am working with. The problem is right now I've so many sample data in the datbase all the testing data in it. I want to clear the database and reset the AutoNumber so that it starts at 1 and goes up by one.I know that its possible in Access and I've done it before, problem is the tables have relationship and lots of them.
the way I know to rest the AutoNumber require me to break the relationship but it will take very long time for me to rectreate them again and I might not get them same at the end.Is there a way to rest the AutoNumber without having to break the relationship?
principally I'm a photographer, and in the absence of any image galleries I could make sense of I created my own asp pages in Dreamweaver displaying images from a path stored in a database. These can then be paged through, all done using server behaviours in Dreamweaver. However, because I wanted to include some text next to my images, again a field in the database, I have to scale them down. I would like to give the user the option to see a larger version of the image on display, preferably in a pop-up window that is then closed by the user before they continue scrolling through the images....
View Replies View RelatedI have an asp page that returns a table from my database. Only about 6 columns from the table are shown on this page. I have the ID column set up as a dynamic link to a 'details' page, so a user can view the rest of the record data.
My database has been growing rapidly, and now when the page is run i get the error "page cannot be displayed".
I believe this is due to how large my database table is because if i delete records the page works fine, as it did when the system was first running. Right now there are 4600 rows in the database and will be growing.
How do I fix this problem, I cannot get rid of any records.
Oh yea, and if i delete the line of code that contains the link, the page works fine and shows the entire table.
Here is the code for the link:
<A HREF="details.asp?<%= "JOB_NO=" & rsResults.Fields.Item("JOB_NO").Value %>"><%=(rsResults.Fields.Item("JOB_NO").Value)%></A>

Is it possible to store html tags in a database field so that when data is retrieved from this field the formating is retained? For example I have an address field in my database, which I return using:
<p><%=(rsType.Fields.Item("DAT_Address").Value)%>
However they are times where I may want to have my city, state etc on seperate lines by using <br>, but right now if I store a <br> in my database it does not affect the formating of my displayed address.
I have a text field i am pulling from a database that uses vbcrlf to create line breaks.
I used the following code to replace them:

Question about the performance of using an include file or reading from a text file compared to hitting the database.
I set up a client's web site so they can post a weekly message and also post a "of special interest" message on their home page. Originally these messages were stored in and retrieved from an Access 2000 database. I decided to try writing the messages to a text file then retrieving it through include file and also tried the text streaming object.
I used netmechanic.com to gauge the download times for all three methods on a 56K modem. According to the results, using the database was around 4 seconds quicker. Does this sound right? The site is on a shared hosting package using Win2000.
I'm trying to write a page that will accept form POST method variables from another page and save them to an Access database via a DSN connection. I'm using code like this:

SQL = SQL & " VALUES ('" & request.form("postVar1") & "','" & request.form("postVar2") & "','" & request.form("postVar3") & "')"
dsnConn.execute(mySQL)
%>

I'm trying to put some text into the database using ADODB.Command object. Seems like a reasonable thing to do and I can do it. But in this instance my text is an HTML code which contains many quotes. But i have to save it as is into the database field.

INSERT INTO (f1, f2) VALUES (v1, v2) comand. But since my v2 contains some quotes in it, (many quotes), I get an error. (it works otherwise). Is there any way ?
As i write this post i have a variety of options to format my post such as bold, changing font, font colour, font size, putting text into paragraphs etc.

I would very much appreciate anyone that can point me to script (prefferably ASP and javascript) to be able to do all of this including storing all the text fully intact (paragraphs) inside an access 2000 database.

View Replies View RelatedI have two columns in my microsoft access database.
1st column is company_logo (jpg image)
2nd column is company_name (text)
I want to build a form, a dropdown box which I would populate with the help of a sql statement from my database. The both columns from up there are associated.
When the user clicks on that dropdown box, I need that company_logo and company_name to be shown one beside another. It should list all the companies availible (taken from that sql statement or recordset).
Does anyone knows if this could be done?
Maybe I should stick just with the textual part?
