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 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 had a vbscript that will read the text file from the bottom to the top, and after reading the file, it will be displayed in the screen, and the code look like this:
PHP Code: Code:
where can i find a detailed example of the xml dom object/parser in use?
I am using the Microsoft.XMLDOM Com Object
since it is not possible to hold custom classes in the session object, i want to serialize all my classes into xml text, then extract the text, parse it, and restore the class.
I can't find any good examples online for how to parse multi-nested xml files/strings through the above Control. Code:
What I need to do is parse a string, then create variables for each word. Example:
- someone enters "cats and dogs" in the text field
- I need to end up with:
firstWord = "cats"
secondWord ="and"
thirdWord ="dogs"
Then I will use the variables firstWord, secondWord, thirdWord later in my app.
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.
Let's say that I have the string below:
<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 want to use asp to do text find and replace with XHTML elements. for example, let's say I have the following XHTML:
<note>
<from id="123">Jani</from>
<to>Tove</to>
<message>Norwegian: æøå. French: êèé</message>
</note>
I want to read this document in, find and XML element with id="123" and replace its text with "New author".
Can I do this in ASP?
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.
Set xmlhttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
url "http://www.domain.com/file.asp"
xmlhttp.open "GET", url, false
xmlhttp.send()
Response.write xmlhttp.responseText
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 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?
View Replies View RelatedIts purely for aesthetics - not essential but i thought it would add a refined touch.
I want to get an effect where it types the text accross the screen as if it was being typed a letter at a time. For example to write "Hi guys" it would write:
H
Hi
Hi
Hi g
Hi gu
Hi guy...
etc etc but not all on a new line.
I figure this is possible using loops and so on, but to get the effect that I want I will need to make the script wait between printing each letter. Is there a VBscript command for this or will I have to start using ActiveX controls or something?
I have a VBScript function:
<script language="VBScript" type="text/vbscript">
Function Main()
set wshshell = createobject("wscript.shell")
struser = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%")
strdomain = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERDOMAIN%")
msgbox struser & strdomain
End Function
</script>
That works great as a Active X script but I want this to display as a value in a text field and I can't find how o do that.
I have an asp page written entirely in jscript with a vbscript used as an include file which one variable on the page must access.
When the page runs, I run into jscript complilation errors when it tries to access the include file (since it is written in vbscript), and I can't figure out how to get the two to work together. How do you get both scripting languages to work on the same page?

Is there a function in VBScript that will return the name of the file
that is currently being executed? Basically, I'm looking for a function
that I can use in code similar to this...

which will result in
The name of this file is - home.asp
being displayed on the page with home.asp executes.
I'm writing an intranet-only browser based application. I need to launch either a SETUP.EXE that is on a network drive or a shortcut on a local drive that points to the exe on the network drive

I have a batch file that needs to execute every day and I need to run it in a silent/invisible mode. I looked up on the Internet and found this command: shell("batchfilename.bat").

What options/methos/properties/functions/objects do I have in order to
create a Function in ASP/VBScript that process/create binary data as an image
file type?
The Function is supoosed to get 2 parameters:

2. the file binary data, binDataImageBytes (which is stored in session
vars)
The Function should return/create an Image File , for instance
~tmpImg.BMP

Does anyone know of a method of converting text files to sound files (.wav, mp3 etc) which can be accessed from ASP?
I have an ASP-based website that enables users to design choreography for equestrian dressage. The resulting design is held as a series of coded movements in a database and it can then be reproduced as text or as a series of diagrams. I would like to offer the option of an audio version.
I want to include a file in a web page according to some details that are retrieved from a database. I have typed the following code:
<% filename = Session("LModCode") & Session("ClassID") & ".inc" %>
<!--#include file="<%=filename%>" -->
This doesn't work. There is nothing wrong with Session variables that I know of, both values are present when i write them to the page. Is it not possible to use vbscript within an include statement?
I am trying to dynamically generate links on a webpage base on a list of file using their title property as the link text. My problem is I don't know how to get the title property of the file. Is there a object or dll i can use?

So the code might go something like this:
