<title>Partly Cloudy and 73 degrees F at Pitt-Greenville Airport, NC</title>
In an ASP file, how would I get the three characters before the word "degrees"? In this particular case, it would be "73 ". Obviously, I'm trying to extract the degrees from this weather string (which is from the National Weather Service, in case anyone is wondering). If anybody knows a better way to get the degrees information from this string.
EDIT: Nevermind. I found that the National Weather Service also offers an XML version that has the degrees totally separated. (The one above is from an RSS feed rather than straight XML.) Having it in this form makes it much easier to parse.
I have a string problem that I would like to resolve. I am submittting multiple values to a form that is posted to query string. The string looks like this:
So what I need to do is to take the id number of the user and put it into an array so I can later insert it into the database. So for the example above, I need an list that looks like this:
436, 430, 425
Once I have this list I can make it an array and then put it into the database.
My question is how do I make the string above look like the string below? I know that I need to use some function of asp to parse the name oout of the string, but i just don't know exactly what....
then parse the first 12 characters into strAccountNumber field then parse the remaining 7 characters in to strBalance.Ultimately, I want a user to enter an account# and it will lookup the account balance.
I need some help with parsing a string and returning all the urls in the string. I posted a thread online a little while ago but the solution didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas? I have a string called "HTML" and i need a script to parse it for links. I'm fairly new to asp so any comments in the script you could give me.
I want to check the string for the last and second last / and I want the information between the two. in all of the above examples I want to end up with test.html, the string lengths will vary, could even be african lions on the prowl.html
How do I parse the string in getting the names out first i.e JOHNDOE?
How do I then get the numbers out separately if they do exists? i.e. 12 45
I am thinking it is in a loop with instr or split function. I can see how I can get the numbers out first but with | and , at the same time - not sure.
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?
In my main 'submit news' admin for a site I am doing, I want to be able to offer the person submitting the news the ability to reference other files within their text without the need to use HTML. My proposal is to use [square brackets] within the text that will then be parsed when the page is rendered from the database. At present I have this - e.g.
To download the file [file.exe, click here]. Which I want to render with the words 'click here' as being a link to file.exe. I'm very familiar with instr, replace and split (all of which I think I would need to use) but I cannot figure out how to parse the above text in the way I want.
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.
I am pulling info from a sql server By default the query pulls back the inforamtion as text.Therefore when I go to calculate some figures its giving me a type mismatch error. Is there a function in can call to convert a text string to an integer string using
rstSearch.Fields("name").Value .To pull back the info in a for loop
Error Type: Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D) Type mismatch
I have the following code which I try to load an xml file, but in browser, I only get text value for each node, not whole xml string. I expect to see something like:
<name firstName="betty" lastName="Smith">I am at home</name> But I only see text "I am at home" did I do something wrong? Set xmlDom=CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
I try to update a text field into Access database. When I click Update button script updates only first word of the phrase excluding other words. How can I fix it. Code:
i have a date format d/m/yyyy h:m:s which users pick from a date picker into a text field in a form. But i want to format the contents into this form - d/m/yyyy.
Pls is there a function i can use to achieve this . I tried format(date_field) but it didn't work.
I have a dynamically generated and FTP'd page that is sent to the server with a title of a song. Then when the user opens the page/site he or she will see the text in a marquee. What I want to do is create a IF Then Statement where it would look like the following:
I am getting a result like this: 'toh23'
and I want it to do either not show it or display and alternative text so...
<% if (TEXTSTRING) = "toh" then response.write("News") else response.write("Normal Text") end if %>
I have the if then else down but I have no clue how to split the text between the 'toh' and the '23'. It will always be toh and then a number but the number changes. I know you can split strings with commas and such but how about numbers?
I have some problem in my ASP project. I'm trying to pass the multi line text value from my Client side to server side. (The string having "Return Key" value). My ASP file doesn't response it.
I have built dynamic HTMLTable. Now I want to attach it directly to the Email Body - it is already built, so why not to use a ready table. However, I cannot find the way of getting plain HTML text out of dynamically built control. I tried to put my table between div and read div.innerHTML then - HTTP exception has been thrown.
I am having a newbie problem trying to Response.Write a static text string, 'Read More' into the output part of a hyperlink. I have tried my way of doing it but it doesn't work.
My code is below (the text string which I want to Response.Write is highlighted in bold):-
Response.Write ("<a href=""dummies_news.asp?ID=" & rsCTD("ID") & """> Read More & ">") Thanks for the help in advance - should be quite simple to solve, I'm sure!
I'm not a asp expert and only use the built in Dreamweaver stuff, the problem I'm getting is a datatype mismatch due to the fact the sql statement is expecting a text string and not a number string, can anyone have a look at the following code and point me in the right direction in regards of what I need to change so the sql statemnet know to expect a number string: Code:
i want to ask is there any way that i could get the value from field (the value will be used in SQL statement) without submit the form coz if i use Request.form("name"), it need to submit the form to get the value
I'm interested in creating an asp function that enables the general parsing of xml. The function needs to take into account the structure of the xml document, as the document(s) can be quite complex.
The use of getElementsByTagName() is not appropriate in this case as I'm trying to avoid picking up the wrong data. The function also needs to be able to test if a node has any attributes and what the attributes are. Here's an example of the document I'm trying to parse: Code:
