I'm trying to sort a list of 10 people into two groups--RANDOMLY. I've gotten as far as to generate a random number and assign a name to it. I just need to know how to generate 9 more numbers, making sure no numbers/names repeat. Code:
View RepliesI want to create a random number where it concatenates with the "day counter" as explained below and name of the person inorder to generate a unique id.
by day counter i mean. there are 365 days in a year and today is the 18th day of the yeat. so the counter generated shud be 18&Smilesmita. How do i do this in ASP ?
However, what I want to do is include a request.querystring("ID"), so that IF an ID is defined, eg ID=3, , it will display the relevant (not random) information. I've tried this every way I can think and get type mismatches, etc etc. It's probably really simple but I can't see it.
<%
limit=3
redim link(limit)
redim image (limit)
link(1)="xxx"
image(1)="image1.jpg"
link(2)="xxx"
image(2)="image2.jpg"
link(3)="xxx"
image(3)="image3.jpg"
randomize
random=int(rnd*limit)+1
%>
<center>
<a href="<%= link(random) %>">
<img src="<%= image(random) %>" border="0"></a>
I just wanted to know whats the best way to generate 50 or say X amount of number at random without having to repeat any of the previous number...
so far I've the following:
[VBS]<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<%
function RandomNumber()
dim theRandom
Randomize
'RandomNumber = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound)
theRandom= Int((99 - (0) + 1) * Rnd + (0))
if (theRandom<10) then theRandom = "0" & theRandom
RandomNumber = theRandom
end function
%>[/VBS]
and then I've this in the body of HTML doc: Code:
We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
i want to generate bill for a user which needs to be in pdf format. so, i came across fdf toolkit......but i am not able to understand how to use it....i looked at the 15seconds.com sites.....also but no help. so, if anybody can give a nice tutorial for this, i would be very thankful.
secondly, is it better to use this fdf toolkit or third party pdf generating tools like asp-pdf from persits inc, aspeasy pdf...etc. if yes, then which tools are the best.
my requirements is that the pdf file should be generated from the database and also from the form....both.
Is there any way to generate a pdf document dynamically using ASP?? My client want a letter to be generated in pdf. I am able to generate the letter in rtf. So a method to convert the rtf to pdf is also fine. Is there any way to generate it using a library function or built in object (with out using Third part toolkit). Even if using any object library.

View Replies View RelatedOk, I currently have an ASP application. In this application, an administrator will need the capacity to print reports of the data stored in a MySQL database.
Let me note now that this is a college project, and I can only basically do what I am allowed to, rather than having full control over the server and making any necessary changes.
The problem is, I don't have permission to write files from my application. How dumb is that? Anyway, I need an alternative way. Are there any ASP PDF converters or any similar that I can query the DB, get the necessary data then present it as a printable document?
A temporary .txt file would have been sufficient, but now that that is ruled out, I need to find another way of doing this.
In a form that is supposed to work online, my user would enter values in say 15 fields. Now when I click "Submit" button, this should create a table at runtime.Next,whenever this button is clicked,this table should be re-generated.

View Replies View RelatedI'm working with a client that runs an ASP based site, and we are running into some roadblocks.
First off, I don't know which ASP-friendly blogging platform to go with. I want something similar in functionality to Wordpress if possible. I've looked at Forest Blog, Presstopia, .Blog, and now Community Server. Which is best in terms of creating search friendly URL's and overall functionality?
Also, we are looking for a sitemap generation script that runs on the server. It seems as though all of the off-site generators are choking and only generating 260 URL's out of 15000. I'm not sure if it's a crawling problem, but if you know of any good sitemap generator for large ASP sites that would be helpful.

I have a client asking me about random images on his site, basically I am using the following code:-
<%
RANDOMIZE
Response.write("<IMG SRC='../gfx/bg-img0" & INT((3)*RND()) & ".jpg'>")
%>
Agreed its not the best code, but he is finding that the same image could be repeated like three times in a run.
I have an include file which displays the image, and the random script is placed inside that include. So when he is going from page to page this is where the issue lies.
Can anyone help me out here, is it even possible to have a different image load each time, and not have them repeating.
I am using random number to be used as a unique identifir. Since random numbers are in decimals I am using going to convert it into an integer and since I need to append this Id into my URL, I am converting it into a string. SO my formula looks like this.
CStr(Int((Highest-Lowest+1)*Rnd+Lowest))
S0 now every time a new record is generated would this formula generate a unique number for unique identification in the table. I can't see how it can do it. Say A user is assigned a random number; then another user subscribes so how would the server determines that the random value assigned to next user is not already assigned to any other user.
In case if this can't work (a unique ID for every user) then I'll stick to this very same formula and after the random number is generated, I'll check this number with the table in the database and see whether it's been assigned already. If yes, I'll request another random value, if not then I'll go with it. Is this the right strategy?
