I have a user that has a PTF containing a list of values. Instead of this user manually entering each value into our DB we want to automate the data entry as much as possible. Is it possible to write a page that can read the contents of a file the user points to on their computer?
Hey so I ran into a pretty big problem here and hoping someone could lend some advice.
Scenario:
- User uploads CSV file to server through ASP form (Check) - ASP then reads that file parses it throws in a HTML table for user to preview (Check) - Throw headers and body columns into 2 seperate array to store for database saving capability (Check)
- If user has a "," in the header name or a field entry things go crazy! (Check)
That's the process and all is great except if there is a comma in one of the field entries or in the header names. Code:
I'm using the code below to get the contents of a remote file on my domain. The problem is all the "£" signs are being changed to "?" signs. Does anyone know why and how to fix it.
I have a text file that is the result of using XMLHTTP object to pull back a page of search results from a search engine.
So I have the entire results page in HTML, and want to break out each hit result from the text file as a unique item and do what I want with each hit result.
Is there any suggested algorithms or any other techniques I could be directed to?
I'm needing some help on this. I need to know how to parse a file path for the file name in a browse box. Lets say I have a browse box in a form with the input of
C:/somedirectory/somefile.asp
I need a piece of code that could convert the input into just somefile.asp?
I know this is a little off topic, but this is the best resource I know of for anything coding related.
I'm needing to read through a text file that will have the following format:
c:ools c:docs c:htdocs
And have the the results put in an array for later processing. What I'm trying to build is a small vbscript that will automatically backup each path that may be in a given txt file.
We face problems uploading excel (with macros) documents using HTML File Upload.
The file contents are corrupted while viewing the same. However, we are able to upload excel (w/o. macros) documents successfully. Is there anything we have to take care of, while handling uploads of excel documents with macros?
I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.
I would like to add a facility to my web page which allows users to upload basic files (word, excel, text, gif, jpg etc) to the server.
I know there's a facility to do this using HMTL forms, but I don't know how to handle the file on the server side.
What I think I need is an ASP file running some code to manipulate the filesystemobject, allowing me to receive the file and store it in the filesystem on the server. It would be nice to access some of the file properties too (name, type etc).
I've seen a few custom components online which allow you to do this, but I can't depend on installing them. I need to be able to script it myself.
I'm working on a asp-application where I shall upload a xml-file from the user, and then process til file (xml) for insert into a database. I'm currently using a "INPUT-field of TYPE=file" to browse for file, and a extra submit button to perform the actual transfer and start file-processing.
Is it possible to show the user one ebutton "IMPORT" without any text-field associated with it, which browses for the file and directly startes the upload to server and triggers file-processing. The actual processing of the file must be done on the server-side (inserts to db etc.).
when i load the page nothing happens, it just refreshes to a blank page. does this page need to be named something special? does it need to be on the same server it's uploading to? Code:
Where can i find information on how to upload files to a folder on my server using asp code and a form? Does anybody have a simple snip of code for this that they would mind sharing?
Could someone point me in the right direction for an asp script that would save an XML file to a folder on the same server it resides on? This XML file will be sent from another application and the asp script needs to accept the XML file (no validation of the XML in the file is required) and save it to a folder on the server. I've seen scripts with a web frontend which requires user interaction where the user has click a browse button and select the file to be uploaded from their local machine. The script I require will have no user interaction - the XML file will just be fired at the script from the other application and it should save it to a folder on the server.
I have to do something like this that a user see list of record if he would find record and want to upload that list then he could upload in a pdf file of that record.
I'm looking for some ASP code that will allow a user at my website to upload a jpg. image from his or her harddrive to my website or just to mail it to me via email.
I want to build file upload functionality that, when user clicks on a link, a file browse box pops up and allow the user to select a file and upload it. Is this supported by IE at all? If yes, could someone send me a simple example?
Im trying to upload files to my website, my write permissions folder is /db, but when I try to upload some file, Directory does not exists shows up. What could be the problem? My code:

In my project I am uploading file, using HttpPostedFile in ASP.NET. In my project I have to allow user to upload pdf, gif and jepg file only. I know after uploading file I can check ContentType of file and give user a massage.
But I like to filter files when in File Browser. So when user will click the Browse.. button only list of pdf, gif and jepg files will be showing up in the file browser. But I don't know how to do that .
i trying to do a asp based multiple file upload form. i got an example coding to upload 4 file a once, but when i try to add another textfield and try to upload the 5 file at a time, i got an error message. Code:
I use upload.asp (an open source file) to upload image file to a hosting folder, and save the file name to a field of database (I use mysql). But sometime (not all time) when I upload a new image file, I lost all the old value (old image file name) that saved in the field of database, the file name field in all old record are all changed to NULL, but the new file name is correctly saved into the right place.
Does any body know why it happened? Is it because the upload action or insert action? And "insert into" sentence can change old record value?
