View Replieshow to dispaly text from a text area on a page as page copy (using the replace function)
How do I display this text inside another textarea, holding formatting? All variations of 'what I thought would work' do not.
I am using the following function:
Function DisplayMemo(theText)
DisplayMemo = ""
on error resume next
DisplayMemo = CStr(theText)
if (len(DisplayMemo) > 0) Then
DisplayMemo = Replace(DisplayMemo, vbCrLf, "<br>", 1, -1, 1)
end if
End Function
calling it like:
<textarea cols=119 name=ownSubmitted rows=7>" & DisplayMemo(getInfo(0)) & "</textarea>
NOTE: getInfo(0) is a variable holding my value. Yes the value is there. It is showing the text I want, however the <br>'s are rendered inside the text area?
I am writing a small database utility to catalog all of my favorite ASM/JS/VBS functions and scripts on an asp page. Everything is going smoothly except for one thing that I can't quite seem to think my way around.
I am using a <textarea> to display the code but some of my scripts have <textarea> tags in them and when the </textarea> tag is entered, it closes my <textarea> and the rest of the code ends up outside of the textarea.
Example: (the code after the middle </textarea> show up outside of the textarea box)
<textarea>
code...code...code...
code...<textarea></textarea>code...
code...code...code...
</textarea>
How would I limit the amount of Characters that show in the display:

View Replies View RelatedI need to populate a select form input (combo box) with about 22,000 rows of data. This is taking an unacceptable amount of time to load. And this data is only going to grow in the future.
I'm using a stored procedure to get the data. Not sure if that's the most efficient. I'm using classic asp. I'm open to any suggestions because I'm not even sure where to look to get options.

i have a textbox that has a value $6.00 for example the user has
to enter a dollar value which has to be less then $6.00 so for example if the user enters 4.00 an alert should be fired telling him he has forgotten his dollar sign ("$") then when he enters it properly like this $5.00 i have to check the value is less then $6.00 and it has to be done in javascript
the textbox which holds the $6.00 value is called saleprice
the textbox which holds the $5.00 or value less then $6.00 is called userprice
I've been working on a script that finds and updates a record in
database based on the user's input. When I try it I get this error:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0113 (0x80004005)
The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. Yo
can change this limit by specifying a new value for the propert
Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administratio
tools.As I can't post a message for some reason whenever I try to include m
script in this message, see attached .txt file for code.

Is it possible to run a script after specified amount of time after login. I made an online test tool. I want to end the test after 20 minutes.
At present one who is writing the exam clicks this endtest script. I want to handle this from software, if he takes more than the given time.
I am using couple of dropdowns on a form which pulls data from one of our
tables.
The data list is quite large (500+) and it takes users a lot of time to find
the correct item. Users are getting quite frustrated using the dropdowns as
they have to scroll for a long time.
I have three text boxes. One text box holds a beginning date, a second holds an end date, and the third box holds the number of days in between. I would like the page to figure out the number of days in between the two dates without having to type in the number of days.
Is that possible to do without having to use some kind of confirmation page. I mean using a confirmation page would work also, but I wanted to cut out the number of steps that a user needs to complete the assigned task.
Text Box 1: Beginning Date
Text Box 2: Ending Date
Text Box 3: Number of Days in Between
Is there a way to limit the number of characters shown from a db field on a web page. In other words, instead of showing the entire title of a work order, I may only want to show the first 30 characters followed by .... Does anyone know how to do this?
View Replies View RelatedI have been writing a photoalbum in ASP and I am trying to receive an undetermined amount of files.
A more detailed explanation:
The client side (Javascript) generates a new file upload box as soon as the file in the first box is selected...the name of the file upload boxes is bestand[] so that the input is received in an array.
Now I am trying to receive all the files with ASP and store them on the server....

Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0113 (0x80004005) The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administration tools. Code:
The problem concerns 2 tables, cart_products and cart_shoppingcart.
Cart_products contains all the product data (eg, prices, product's key name, etc), but most importantly, it contains the quantity of stock (prod_quantity) for each item.
cart_shoppingcart contains all of the user's items in their shoppingcart, including those that are part of an (customer) order; these have the order_number to differentiate from those that aren't in any order (their Order_number is 'no_order', the others have the order number).
Now, what I want to do is this:
For every item in the order (ie, every entry in cart_shoppingcart that matches the username and order number), take the quantity (x) the customer is ordering, then take the quantity of stock remaining (y), then subtract x from y to create the new stock level (z) and update the appropriate record in cart_products with z (all this with SQl preferably).
I was thinking of using a Do while loop, but realised that it wouldn't work as I'd have to use several SQL statements and then I'd run into a problem the minute ASP reads "objrec.movenext".
I am able to populate the contents of my textares with employees. However when I view it in the browser (IE 6.0), then I see that the 1st employee is aligned towards the right.
Like this: Code:

Emp4
Emp5
How can I ensure that my alignment is is proper? Code:
Simple vbscript,html page loading into access.
Input pg posting to Confirm pg, then sending to access.
when using;
<textarea name="name" tabindex="15">
</textarea>
as an input renders tab spaces automatically.
I took out <Div> tags, and tried nowrap, and tried
reformatting data before sending to dbase (CStr, Trim)
I made a simple <textarea> , but the problem is, everytime I want to press Enter to break row , I gotta put <BR> .. can I do something that the user can type freely and the ASP will insert <BR> where needed?
View Replies View RelatedI've written several scenarios where the end user needs to enter data into a textarea (descriptions, messges etc) which becomes part of a form. End users often put apostrophe's and carrige returns in the textarea... however, when the code i write is submitted to the database, it generates an sql command from the page that sent the action.
Client Side:
<form action="somepage.asp" method="post">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress">
<textarea cols="20" rows="5" name="comments"></textarea>
</form>
On code submission...
sql="insert into tableName (email,comments) values ('" & request.form("emailaddress") & "','" & request.form("comments") & "');"
db.execute(sql)
Now, when strange people put carrige returns, it stuffs up the string and therefore produces an error, and to make matters worse if it did recognise a carrige return, it wouldn't be displayed on HTML output. Apostrophes are even worse - they signify the end of a variable in the SQL sentance Can anyone help me and figure out a new way of writing to the DB?
I've got a page on a website I'm developing that contains a textarea.
The textarea will allow users of the site to enter a description of an
item.
When they submit the form that contains the textarea, the textarea and
other form elements data are stored in a database. So far so good.
My problem concerns carriage returns, new lines, line feeds or whatever
else you want to call them :-)
I want them preserved, so when the user wants to edit the description of
the item, the format of the description is displayed exaclty as it was
entered.
The problem is that HTML renders the carriage returns as white space, so
when the database is read and the textarea populated with the
description field, the carriage returns are lost.
I have tried the ASP REPLACE function to replace carriage returns with
<br>, but the code below actually displays all the <br>'s.
<%=Replace(myRecordset.Fields.Item("myField").Value,Chr(13),"<br>")%>
I played around with different combinations of chr(13) and vbcrlf and I
managed to get the textarea to display the description as it was entered
with carriage returns, but upon further testing and editing of the
description, because of the REPLACE function, the number of carriage
returns was doubling each time!
i have 2 tables one table stores the information for the prof and second table stores information for the subject he teaches so first table deptprof has the id,name,email for the professor
so i get his last name and email which is working second table design is name is deptlist
fields are
deptautoid
deptid
subjectname
desc
so one professor might be teaching 3 subjects
so the records in table are
1001
3
maths
maths subject is boring
1002
3
science
science is good
1003
3
sports
make some time for it
so now this page lets the professor update the subject and its desc
so what i do is fill up the subjects and desc he is currently assigned to and then he can change the subjects
and desc
subjects have a checkbox and desc has a textarea
what happens is for example a professor has 3 subjects he is teaching now
so 3 checkboxes are selected and all the desc for them are displayed in the textarea
but now the professor decides he wants to teach 4 subjects
so he selects the 4th subject checkbox and doesnt enter the desc i want to fire the alert
but it doesnt fire the alert
second way prof is teaching 3 subjects
3 checkboxes are selected and 3 textarea are filled
professor decides to delete desc in one of them and hits submit i want to fire an alert
saying he forget desc but it doesnt fire so whenver desc is deleted from the textarea and checkbox for it is selected
i want to fire an alert
can someone tell me whats wrong with the code
thanks,
todd
