I have an ASP admin script where I'm adding records, and I have a
category that already has set name values hard-coded into a selct option
pulldown, but if the user wants to create a new category and not use the
select pulldown, the value will end up being " , newvalue" when posting
from this sequence of pulldown and input text box:
I cannot get the selected option to be POSTed (it does not appear in the QueryString when using GET neither)
I construct the drop down list from an array, I select an element in the list, I POST using a submit button. When I use Request.Form("NAME") it's always empty. Is the selected item is Posted? How to retreive it?
Response.Write "<SELECT NAME>" for i = LBound(aRessource, 1) to UBound(aRessource, 1) Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE=" & i & ">" Response.Write aRessource(i, 0) next Response.Write "<OPTION SELECTED>" Response.Write "</SELECT>"
i have a list of provinces in an option select right, so when i click one province i want it to chance the header of my page according to the provinces, and i have no idea on how to do that.
I have loaded a combobox (select) with a recordset from SQL Server. I am trying to accomplish two things, so I will break them up.1) Is there a way to allow the user to enter as many characters in the dropdown menu. For example, if you have serveral options in the dropdown menu that start with A, they can key in app.. to got to apples, instead of entering A and then having to keydown or click on the dropdown menu.
Granted there is a solution to #1, could you also allow the user to key information and if it is not apart of the dropdown menu, insert the value back into SQL (kind of like an notonlist event in Access).I have googled this and can't find anything, probably wrong keywords used.
i just want to ask on how will i load the other version of file written in another language (e.g Japanese)upon selecting that particular language from the option box. Like for instance the options are English, Arabic, Japanese and so on...then upon choosing the Arabic language, the page that contains an Arabic language (layout and data)will be displayed.
I am trying to force the last option selected in a drop down!, I basically have a page with a drop down box in which sends to itselfs when selected, the idea is the selected value updates a postage amount depending on the country selected from the dropdown.
However when it returns to the page it defaults back to 'select country' and I would really like it to be able to display the option selected as this is part of the address form.
the relevant country is correct, and i am putting that into a request.querystring so this variable (destination) is available to test/compare against and maybe force select this way, but i just don;t know how to write the asp/html to make the select value go to either this variable or the last one selected. Code:
I am creating an application in ASP (old school ASP not .NET) and VBSCRIPT connecting to a SQL Server 2000 back end. There is a form on my webpage that has a select box in which <option> tags allow users choose a document type.
Once the document type is determined it is sent off as a parameter in a stored procedure on the databse. The recordset returned holds the values that are required to go in another set of options boxes.
(the next set of option box values depend on the query results). I know it sounds easy...I mean I know how to do it if it where on 2 seperate pages (thats easy) where it passes on the info...but this is for ONE asp page.
Is there a possibilty to use the function <SELECT NAME="user"><OPTION>user 1</OPTION></SELECT> from a database. I want to get the data out from a table and store the data from that column in a dropdown box. What's the way to do this ?
I am trying to retrieve option values using Request.Form as you do for textboxes! The textboxes work fine... but I can't get it done for select options.
How can I get a new Option based on a the previous select. When you select a room from selRoom (orange) I want the available equipment (red) that match on a foreign key (CampusID 'Not Displayed') to be displayed. Code:
I'd like to have the option that matches the current value in the database field display as the selected option. I know it's easy enough to manually force one option or another to be selected, but how could I change which one it is based on the database contents?
I've got a database that has 5 numeric values for each record. I'm trying to figure out how to have the records sorted alphabetically, but highlight the highest value in the table for each column. So in other words, the table shows up with one record in each row, with a total of 6 columns (the name plus 5 columns). I want the highest value in each column to be emphasized.
So the final product would end up looking like the code at the bottom of this message.
I've pulled the records from the Access database and am able to sort them alphabetically and get the table to appear. What I was thinking is that at the top I'd define variables that correspond to the highest record for each column. Then in the table code I'd set the colour of each cell using an 'if then'.
So I have 3 specific questions:
- Is that the best way to do it? I don't want the page to take 20 minutes to load because I'm overloading the server.
- how would you set the variables at the top of the page?
- how would you write the if then in the middle of the table to change the background colour of the cell if that value (or values, in case there's a tie) is the highest of all the records? Code:
Say I have a field containig some text, for example: The quick brown fox jumped over the fence. How do I only show the first 4 words of the sentance, i.e: The quick brown fox...
I do a SELECT * from table command in an ASP page to build a text file out on our server, but the export is not to allow a field name rows of records. The first thing I get is a row with all the field names. Why do these come in if they are not part of the table records? How do I eliminate this from being produced? Code:
I'm having problems retrieving all the values from a multiple selection field using the freeaspupload component.
I'm creating an online email app that uses the freeaspupload to add attachement functionality, which means the form encoding type is multipart/form-data. I've done something similar with the persits aspupload component, and had no problems with that, but the freeaspupload version seems to handle <select> fields slightly differently. Code:
I am trying to split a mgrgroup field to extract the MD codes. It correctly grabs the MD codes if all records in a mass update are updated, but if only one record in the loop is updated then it puts the last 5 digits of the mgr name in the MD field.
I am using the following code to split/join values in a multi-select field. It is combining all the values in All the records into one long string in each record in recordset.
Example: I have a recordset with 2 records. The 1st contains the split/joined values: Alan Smir, Jeff Karl The 2nd contains the value: Keith Robb
When it updates database, it will put Alan Smir, Jeff Karl, Keith Robb into each record in the recordset. Instead it should be putting Alan Smir, Jeff Karl into the 1st record and Keith Robb into the 2nd record in the recordset.
i'm new here and i'd like to ask if there's someone who knows how to compare date() function and date from database with date/time type inside select statement so i don't have to do if..then..else
I have a service request form in asp, which takes a bunch of data (name, id, etc). it then has 2 checkboxes, either or both of which can be checked to request a certain service. depending on which box is checked, the other data collected is inserted into a corresponding database. what is the best way to do this?
can i just use 2 IF statements (not nested) to open the connections to the databases?
I'm building a wizard-type site and I have a form that has a fair amount of information being posted page to page until it reaches the end where it has all of the data from Page 1 - Page 5. For future reference more than anything...is there a way to post all of the data coming from a previous page to the next page? Basically I just wrote out all of the values I received on each page into hidden variables and then posted that to the next page every time. Is there a simpler way?
If you have an SQL error, response.write your SQL including all variables to the browser. If I had a dollar for every error that could be fixed in about 15 seconds after doing this, I'd have like at least 15 bucks.
I have been left a set of instructions. One of them is to post an XML string to an address. I have my XML string, but how do I 'Post' it? I'm using ASP.
i am trying to do Multiple Posting to different Server when User post the Order form. one to windows server second to linux server third to its own server
I'm working on a shopping cart that uses PayPal when the user submits their information 3 things need to happen on the same page:
1. User information gets saved in a database 2. An e-mail is sent out 3. Variables are transferred via a "POST" method to the PayPal API
I've successfully made it through the first 2 but the 3rd one is killing me. How do I do this? The only way I can think to do this is with the response.redirect but it can't be a GET it needs be a POST. Any thoughts?
My employer uses an onjline application for new hires. Currently they fill out a form which goes to ../cgi-bin/formail.pl Of course this then email the application to them. Once they recieve it it looks fine but when the go to print they say it prints 4 or 5 pages of garbly gook. I havent seen this yet but i was thinking that if i could post the form to two seperat files, the fromail.pl and an asp page to insert it into an access table to later view with another asp page they could view the apps online and just print form explorer if i designed the page right i have never done anythig with pearl before. Can I post it to an asp page then to the formail.pl. instead of posting it to two pages.
I have a discussion forum that is working great, except that I just found out that if a person adds a reply to a thread, the thread just stays in place, weather or not if it's the first post or 7893th post. What I would like it to do is display the earliest thread, or the earliest thread with a reply at the top and work to the oldest thread. Right now it works only from earliest post to oldest post, not including the replies.
I was using Microsoft Posting Acceptor to upload file on web server(IIS 5) but after reinstalling my web server. when i try to upload file it give me error Http 405 - Resource not allowed.

I have a login form on a page that should post the data to a non Windows server and upon successful authentication, the browser needs to show the secodn url.
I did the form post, got the successful results back but the browser is still showing at the same url. Which method needs to be used so that the browser shows the target url. In this case it's sURL in my code. sHTML is the result from the successful result from posting the form to the non Windows server.
As an example, imagine you want to put a Hotmail login form in your own site, post the form using your asp.net code and the browser ends up inside Hotmail showing a hotmail.com url.
