I have a form that has 6 fields for address information
when a user clicks on a button a javascript is called
what i want to do is get the values from the fields and open a notepad and copy in it
is this possible and can someone give me a example how to do it
I have written an ASP application using our IIS server which retrieves data and displays them in a nice grid. My boss wants the application to create a .txt file of this data when a button is clicked and then open Notepad with this new file so that it can be saved locally on a user's harddrive.
I can create the file itself fine, but trying to launch Notepad client-side with this new .txt file has proven to be an absolute nightmare. It is a nightmare because I've gotten errors such as from "Automation server can't create object" to others that are a constant, annoying road-block to what seems to me ought to be a simple trick.
Bottom line, how do I do the above without getting errors (opening Notepad with the file created)? Again, Notepad is what my boss wants used, so with that I need to know the solution with ASP (not ASP .NET).
I was thinking about create a web page to display my log files. I have a folder that holds all the notepad files (logs) on my hard drive.
There is a new file will be created everyday. Is it possible for me to create a webpage (ASP or HTML) to display all the logs?
I have a database and I use asp to load it into a html table.
The first cell of each row contains a button.
What I want is that when a user clicks the button it calls a serverside sub that inserts additional rows from an other table of my database. Problem is that I don't now how to call a sub from the onclick event of the button. And I don't know if it's possible to insert rows in a html table. Does anybody know how I should do this?
Been looking around the web and found some examples but nothing great. wondering if any1 here has seen a script to show a dynamic clock on a webpage that displays server time (this will be for an intranet app). me and my budy have been working on different ideas but to no avail. so in the mean time thought id post to see if any1 has seen 1 or has done one.

View Replies View RelatedI have a usercontrol which contains ajax toolkit controls which I am using in a SharePoint siite. When the user clicks one of the buttons on the page it fires a series of events server side (creates a new project in project server, creates an new SharePoint site ... ) each of which take quite some time. I would like to display the successful completion of each event in the control to so the user can see what progress has been made.
I am struggling to understand how I can engineer the page to perform each task in turn, post the page back after each task has occurred (to update the UI that the task has been done) then fire the next server side event. It's easy to update a control with the status changes but the updated control is only displayed to the user when all of the server side events have completed.
I have a new approach to saving charts from server-side Excel when ASP pages are processed. The charts show weather data that is updated every 15 minutes in a database, and instead of just automating the chart production so that every chart is generated every 15 minutes, 24 hrs/day, it seems smarter to generate up to date charts when people want to look at them. But I'm not sure if this is the best approach.
This is what I can do from an ASP page to dynamically chart data:
- run Excel on the server
- open a Worksheet that has a customized chart for a range of cells.
- insert new data in the charted range of cells (chart auto-updates).
- save the chart to a gif file.
- insert the gif into the html page viewed by the client.
Using this approach is convenient because I can customize charts to look exactly as I want without having to find the documentation to automate the chart formatting.
Is it possible to run Excel once on the server, and let all requests for charts use this one running instance of Excel? The alternative is that Excel will run once for each chart request, this seems like it could get out of hand pretty quickly if a lot of people are trying to look at charts at the same time.
Are there better ways to generate charts dynamically on the server?

View Replies View RelatedI devolop a webpage using ASP.NET. i want to redirect my page to certiain links stored in the database. the links can be either URL or Word documents sored in the server. here is my problem. when i redirect my page, if it is a document, it opens the MS.Word appilication.
instead, is there any possibility to open those documents in IE itself with out any confirmation ?
I have an application that generates PDF documents (from an ASP page). In some cases, I need to generate a PDF then provide a link to that PDF from the web page - this I can do fine. In other cases, I want to generate the PDF, but then immediately open the PDF in the browser; in this case, once I have generated the PDF, I am simply using 'Response.Write MyPDFPath' to open the document.
However, for some people this doesn't work, but for some it does. And I can't figure out why results are different. In both cases, the browser address changes to match the URL for the PDF document, but in some cases, all you can see is a blank screen. If you click on the Refresh/Reload button, the PDF displays perfectly - so it's not a show-stopper, but it is a bit of an inconvenience.
Has anyone got any ideas why this may be happening? Is there a better way of opening the PDF? I thought of streaming directly to the client, but that would present the user with an Open/Save/Cancel dialog, which although is more intuitive, it's hardly any easier than clicking on Refresh.
I'm dynamically creating a PDF file using a 3rd-Party component. I've got this much working...
