I have developed a portal wherein a user is allowed to access certain areas only through an id and password. But what happens is that once the user logs in, accesses his areas etc and forgets about it,the back button of the browser enables him to view the last accessed pages,which are restricted through the id/password.
Can someone please tell me how such a situation may be avoided so as to restrict unauthorised access?
I have a form that submits values on fields to an add to database asp page that works fine. However I do not want duplicate values submitted. How can I make the submitting page expire once the results have been successfully passed on to the page that adds the results to the database, so that the user may not submit the same thing again and again. I would like the receiving page make the sending page expire.
View Replies View RelatedI got stuck with some cookies expiry date. I wanted my cookies to expired every 4 hours. I'm writing with ASP. Currently I'm using the below code:
Response.Cookies("announcement").Expires = date + 1
for the expiry of everyday. How can I write if I want the cookies to expire every 4 hours?
I want to create a cookie that remembers the member's log in password and username. But i do not know how to set an expiry for the cookie. I understand that if I set to the one below, when the user closes and reopens the browser, he will still be logged in. But i wish to let the cookie expire once the browser is closed. How can i specify that?
Response.Cookies( theName ).Expires = "July 31, 2008"
I have a mysql database and i want to make the records have an expiry time. i'm thinking have a field with the time the record was added and then add another field which is that time + 7 days for example. then on my search results page have some code that only displays records before or on the expiry date.
I've looked for other similar things on the internet but can't find anything relevant. does this sound ok, or does anyone know of a better way to do it?
I'm trying to set a cookie expiry date but my script is JS (JavaScript). I've
tried
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toLocaleString();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toString();
Response.Cookies("Test").Expires = Date().toUTCString();
none works. I've seen what bothers IIS is the day name when assigning the expiry
date: "7 février 2004 11:57:57" is ok while "samedi 7 février 2004 11:57:57"
produces an error "Invalid type".
Ok, I could switch to VB Script (which I think I'll do because of the ease of
doing it in that language). But I'd like to know if there are well-known tricks
on using IIS/ASP and cookies expiry date in JavaScript. It seems IIS object
model is unable to recognize (or handle) JavaScript dates...
Might sound a stupid question but I'd like my script to be as platform
independent as possible. Why? I'm running a French version of Windows 2000/IIS5.
I might have to host my web on an English version. Or whatsoever. I wouldn't
like to triturate the date string for it depends on the current locale. If
JavaScript cannot be used without modifying the string I'll switch to VB script.
How does one read and write the cookie expiration date. At the moment my code is returning a value BUT a garbled value:
'//Write cookie...
Response.Cookies("Propsect").Expires = Date() + 1
'//Read cookie...
ExpDate = Request.cookies("Propsect")
Response.write "Prospect expiry date: " & expDate & "<br>"
Result: u%5Fname=k
Any ideas?
set Server.ScriptTimeout variable to 214783647. it's maximum timeout value. insert the following sentence at start line of your asp file.
<%
Server.ScriptTimeout=2147483647
%>
I have an asp application. However, the scripting time is too early too expried. How can I extend the scripting time for an individual asp page, or set for one website.
View Replies View RelatedWe are working on an old asp project and we noticed that some users get
kicked out of the session right after they log in.
I investigated the issue and I found the cause:
1- The user login successfuly.
2- He gets redirected to the menu screen. that's when I set some
cookies to cookie("cookie name").expires = Now. that when the session
starts to disapear, once the user tries to access other pages (or even
refresh), the ASPSESSIONID cookie disapears.
I did some debugging on the http_cookie collection and looks like the
ASPSESSION disapears once I set the cookie expiration, although I set
the expiration for cookies unrelated to the ASPSESSIONID.
Here is the tricky thing, it works on 90% of the machines, and it
doesn't on other machines, it's also random, so some users who had the
problem, are now able to work on the system and the problem disapeard.
Have you guys ever had this problem, or do you know if it is related to
IE batches or service packs?
suppose i have a script which sets a cookie in this manner:
Response.Cookies("session_id") = '12345'
Response.Cookies("session_id").Expires = <future date here>
Response.Cookies("session_id").Path = "/"
and another script which clears it like this
Response.Cookies("session_id") = ""
The scripts are located in a directory "mysite" under iis root directory
and accessed through http://localhost/mysite/something.asp
When these are called repeatedly, everything works as expected
(script number 1 sets the cookie and number 2 clears it)
However, when I create a virtual directory called "mysite" and point it
to the same place, script number one is no longer able to set the cookie
after script number two has been called, even though they are still accessed
exactly the same way (http://localhost/mysite/something.asp)
But when I modify the code in script number one by removing the last two lines
("expires" and "path") it works as expected again.
I created a web page from Excel2000, using "Save as web page..."...Publish
function. then, I moved htm file to my IIS web server. Then I added a form control, and submit button.
How can get the data on the excel file using ASP from server side?
For example, the value of Cell(1,2), Cell(2,3)....
What I want to be able to do is create a user control that will display an
entire page page within it. Does anyone know how to do this or better yet
have any same code?
I like to know how to write this specifc function on ASP where the user eg: display a set of records on the webpage. Example the data are ID, Name and address.
Lets say i display the data on the webpage and i set the Name as the <a href>. So when i click on the name, it will move to another page with the id of the specific name. Code:
I have an ActiveX control in my ASP page that has not been signed yet, so currently just for testing I set the Security for Intranet to "Low". When I run the ASP page on my machine (the IIS is in my machine), I have no problem, except the page prompted me with "An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of the page. Do you want to allow this interaction?"
But, when I run the ASP page on another machine (even though the other machine is also a development machine that already has the ActiveX control and I set the Security for Intranet to "Low"), it did not prompt me the above message, and I got an error when accesing any method of the AX control (e.g Object doesn't support this property or method 'myAXControl.method').
Is this because I have to create a CAB file and mark the AX control as safe for scripting ?To create a CAB file for this AX control, do I need to create my own VB AX
Control project that contains this control and then create a cab file for this VB project ?
This is a standard ASP application that has several pages at the root
withthe global.asa. I set a session variable session("accountid") =
"123456" within an asp page and then response.redirect to the next page and
immediately response.write session("accountid") and I get back nothing.
But if I set a session variable session("accountid") = "123456" within an
asp page and response.redirect to a page in a sub directory and immediately
response.write session("accountid") I get back 123456 on the screen.

I encounter a page reload situation in ASP. It is I need a way to differentiate whether the current page - "Application_Result.asp" got reloaded itself when user click on the browserRefresh button or is requested by the previous page "Application_Form.asp".
I tried using
<%if Request.ServerVariables("REQUEST_METHOD") = "POST" then%>
<!--it is requested from "Application_Form.asp, do something-->
<%else%>
<!--Application_Result.asp refreshed itself(such as user clicks on the
browser Refresh button, do something else-->
<%end if%>
However, in both cases, the IF statement above all evaluated as true. how to differentiate this two different behavior (Page Refresh versus Page requested by another Page) ?
I have page for user to update his/her details. What i want is after idle for more than 20 mins, the page will redirect to login page automatically. So that the user knows that his/her session already expired and need to login again.
But it doesn't working. This is because if he/she update the details (after idle more than 20 mins), and click the Submit button, it will go to login page and all the data will be lost. Code:
I am working with a developer, on two portions to a site, he is working in PHP and my work is done in ASP.

I have an application which allow users to search our database. Quite a lot
of search fields pull data from other tables. I don't want to populate the
dropdowns (total 14 of them) from the database everytime as it slow the page
load.
Instead I would like to have a link next to the text field which a
user and click and the choices can be displayed and whatever the user click
in the pop up I want to transfer it to the text box and close the popup.
For example there is a Textbox called country. The user can either type in
the country name or click on the link which will pull all the countries from
table in the database and which ever country user selects, the textbox is
popluated with the country name and the pop up closes automatically. Code:
I'm trying to write an asp page line by line, as one would create a
text file, only my file will end in .asp.
One line simply writes a close ASP code tag, or
FILECONTENTS=FILECONTENTS & "%>"
When this line processed, an error occurs saying that the string was
never terminated because the asp page attempting to write this line of
code to a NEW asp page reads that close ASP tag (%>), as an actual
close asp tag for itself, instead of a STRING value.
How do I write this %> symbol to a new asp file, while still
maintaining its purpose to close a group of asp code in the newly
created page?
This is my coding:
window.opener.location.reload(); window.close();
I don't want the IE to pop up the alert msg to false retry or cancel to reload the page.
I have tried:
1. window.opener.location = window.opener.location
2. window.opener.history.go(0)
But as i carry some data from previous previous page, when i use (window.opener.location = window.opener.location), it can't capture my data as it just load the page. It will pop up error as no data captured :
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d'
Type mismatch: '[string: ""]'
Any suggestion?

View Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to lead customer from a regular page to a secured page?
Regularly, we use absolute path. say first ,a customer is on this regular page for general information: http://xxxdomain.com/index.html, then customer decides to buy something from our site. Then our program will provide an absolute path like this: https://xxxdomain.com/buy.asp.
