View Replies View RelatedIm developing a site for an organisation im a member of. Im trying to make updating the site a simple as possible for the organistions staff, some of which are not the computer literate. So i have made a kind of template site where the content of all the pages held in a access db. I have then made an admin backend where organisation staff can login and update the contents of pages simply by editing text in a text box and clicking the update button.
However, i've come across a problem. When users leave a line break in the text box the output page doesnt display the gap. I am using a simple response write to display the contents of the attribute on the page. Currently the only way im managing to get line breaks is to enter a '<br>' into the text box on the admin page.
How could i make it so when a line is left blank on the text box the database records this and displays it on the output page?

losing all the line breaks and such
If I response.write it within <textarea> </textarea> tags it comes back
I created a form mail script. I am receiving an HTML email from the user input. However, If the user enters a line break in the comments field I am receiveing a single block of text in my email.
Is there a way to get the line breaks to show up in the email. I tried Wrap=physical in the input but its still the same.
searched the forum many people posted the same thing many times about text areas displaying line breaks when data is retrived, i know this is the right code
<%=Replace(data, VBCrLf, "<br />")%>
but where abouts do i put this in my asp page.
<%
response.write("Hi" & vbclrf)
response.write("there")
%>
There's no line break, it just displays it as Hithere.
I'm storing information in a database that will later be displayed on the website and I have a questions about line breaks. My users will type in paragraphs into the text area. Then that information will be saved in an Access Database. Later it will be displayed on the website.
The only problem is that the line breaks that the user makes aren't stored in the DB, so when the information is displayed on the website it doesn't have that formatting (line breaks). I don't want to have to tell the user to type in <br> after each paragraph. What can I do to keep that formatting?
I've got the following code which should write the contents of a textarea to a '.txt' file:
Code:
set objFileSystem = server.createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set objFilePlainText = objFileSystem.CreateTextFile(server.mappath("templates/my-text-file.txt"),true)
objFilePlainText.write(strTemplatePlainText)
If I response.write this data before inserting to the txt file, it preserves the line breaks, but when it writes to the txt file it seems to lose all of the line breaks.
Does anyone know how to get this to preserve the formatting of the text being inserted?

for one of my forms, i have a textarea form element that is...substantially large (500x300px) users are instructed to hit enter/return on their keyboard to separate paragraphs but i have encountered a problem.
in the textarea, everything is wonderful. line breaks are clearly seen...its awesome. when i submit the form and when it writes to the database (the field is set as 'text'), everything is crammed together...there is just one space between where one paragraph ends and another begins.
has anyone encountered this problem before? does anyone know a solution?

I am having some serious problems with a line of code in my banner rotation application. I have attached it. For some reason, in the banner.asp script (line 114, which I have commented out for debugging) is causing an error why I try to write the file). Basically the filename it is tryingn to write is "clicks1 .txt".
See the problem? The space between the "1" and the ".", and this is throwing an error. I've tried search and replace for the " " (space) and it doesn't work. How do I get this darn space off?To run, just browse to the file test.asp included in the .zip archive.

View Replies View RelatedI need an ASP code that will pass some variables as options to a command line.
Let's say I need to execute a program with some options and I need the user
to select the otions from the web interface.
The command line will look something like this:
Program.exe /usename:username /password:password /options:option1,option2,option3
The the user will access a web page and it will be asked for the username , password and
it will be able to select the options by marking them on the page.
After the selection the command line will be executed with the selected oprions.
If somebody can point me to some example code or any hints to get me started I would
appreciated it.
It is possible to specify also the credentials the "program.exe" should run under?
I an using ASP to read a database table and generate an HTML table
which is save via FSO with a file extension of .xls which opens up

View Replies View RelatedI'm doing a content management system, whereby the user can enter the HTML code for a currency symbol, eg £ for £.y . when I bring this data backup, say they want to edit the settings, then my ASP/HTML page is rendering the HTML code, eg £, rather than showing the original value, eg £.
If for example I put a space between the '&' and the 'pound;', eg & pound; then this will cause me problems because the user will think that they have to a put a space in or they file it with the space, which means the HTML code won't work any more. Is there a way round this?
I am designing an Interactive website that uses MySql. At the moment I have just designed the Login pages for users. However to do this I have a Login.html page and a Login.asp page. The values from the html form is posted to the asp page which checks the details against the databse and redirects the user acordingly.
However I would like to have just one Login.asp page where this is all done in. I have tried simply putting the html code into the asp page but the problem is that as soon as i run the login.asp page (on IIS), the asp code is also run. How can I change this so that only once the user clicks on the submit form button, only then the asp code is executed?
