I need to read a simple txt file where there are some variables. I've done
this a lot of times but in this case I have something different: the text
file is located at an ftp server.
The FTP server has anynomous access.
Anyone know how can I do this?
the source code is:
<%
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set a = fso.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath("") & "/learn.txt")
mystring=a.readAll
Response.Write ("<pre>" & mystring & "</pre>")
Set a = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
%>
The output is:
abc
ABC
i don't understand this:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set a = fso.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath("") & "/learn.txt")
what should be insect in ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")?
and what should be insect in (Server.MapPath("") & "/learn.txt") ?
I found the complete physical path to the doman by Response.Write Server.MapPath(".") and the path is: C:Inetpubwwwrootmyweb"&"gg.txt
With this,there's still error to read my text file.The error source code is place at below,please help me do correction!!! Code:
I would like to know how I could accomplish this without using DB. There's a long text file named "TEST.TXT" The TEST file contains special character 'º' which will be used as pagebreak. I want an ASP page that will read the TEST.TXT file and split it into multiple web pages with navigation control. (eg. <FIRST<PREVIOUS>
<NEXT<LAST)

I have a form that updates a text file. This text file writes variables (i.e. username = tom). This file is used to preview an HTML page and when you go to the form the variables are populated into the form fields again.
For some reason when someone else modifies the text file (using the form) I only see the old contents in the form fields. When I look at the preview HTML file, however, everything is fine.Why doesn't the form re-populate with the new info?
i have a variable 'user', and a text file 'users.txt'. how can i search the text file and select the line thats the same as the variable 'user', then put that line into a variable?

root|18273
test2|fjfkds
I need to create something that will read a text file and send e-mail statements from that text file. I know this is a basic application, but I am not sure where to start with this. The text file already contains all of the information for the statements. It is one file that starts with the customer e-mail address and then separates each statement by an <eob> marker. I need to be able to browse to upload the file and then have the application cycle through and generate all of the e-mails. I don't need to do any formatting to the text file, just read it and send the e-mails. The server currently uses CDOSYS to send other e-mails from a shopping cart application.

I get a CD from O2 containing call data.I want to read the txt file on the CD and use the content of the textfile in an asp file to import to the database.But how do i read the file?
View Replies View RelatedHere is what I have setup:
- a form that updates a text file.
- for example, in the form I have two fields, title and story. then, this write to a textfile (i.e. theinfo.asp). the update.asp file looks like this:
TSO.write "<%" & vbCrLf
TSO.write "title = """
TSO.write Request.Form("title")
TSO.write """" & vbCrLf
TSO.write "story = """
TSO.write Request.Form("story")
TSO.write """" & vbCrLf
- so, essentially it is creating an asp file with two variables.
- this works fine, it updates the file and i can call these variables in other pages. however, when i call these variables into a form : old versions of the variables populate the form: Code:
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:

I have to make a site search function for my website. User types a keyword, and the search function searches through all the static pages for the keyword. The result of the search has to display the URL relating to the keyword, which the user can click to read the contents.
I had no idea how to go about doing it, finally I thought of using a textfile containing the word, and its related URL in the format: Code:
Consider the following code snippet:
<%
Dim objFSO,objOpenFile,strPath
strPath=Server.MapPath("ADList1.txt")
Set objFSO=Server.CreateObject("SCRIPTING.FILESYSTEMOBJECT")
Set objOpenFile=objFSO.OpenTextFile(strPath,1)
Do While Not objOpenFile.AtEndOfStream
Response.Write(objOpenFile.ReadLine() & "<br>")
Loop
objOpenFile.Close
Set objOpenFile=Nothing
Set objFSO=Nothing
%>
When I try to execute the above code, the code never gets executed. Neither
am I shown a script timeout error. After a lot of investigations, I
concluded that the code is not getting executed due to the presence of
Set objOpenFile=objFSO.OpenTextFile(strPath,1)
If I comment line nos. 3 to 8, then the code gets executed but as expected
without any output. Is this happening because of some permission which has
not been given to IIS 5.0? If so, what is it? I am working on Windows 2000
Professional.
I understand i can not use Scripting.FileSystemObject to read a file that resident on another server and i need to use something else.

I have an application which was successfully writing data from submitted forms to a text file in a directory - in this case:
/data/findata.txt
This was fine because the forms lived at the root level with this directory.
Since then I have added enabled the forms to be used on subdirectories :
/subdirectory/myform.asp
I've used the same code for server.mapparth("data") etc - but instead of locating the directory at the root of the server called "data" it looks to the current directory- doesn't find it and creates another! eek!
What I need is a way to say "right, it doesnt matter what level you are at at the moment, always look at the root level /data directory"...
This has to be fairly dynamic - on the development server here its got a different file structure than on the live server (ie, it lives another level down again on the physical drive)...
Anyone got a good idea on how to look back up?
I do have one way to test which level they are at - but I feel that its a bit 'weak' - I have an ID that tells me if they are working on the upper or lower levels (ie, anything other than 1 is a lower level) - whilst I realise I could use this in the test I'm not sure if its going to be 100% fool proof to base this criteria on this ID.
Therefore I was hoping for a better way using the server.mappath etc...

View Replies View RelatedI need to load the file path of a file on a web server into a form text box. I tried using a normal form box using type=file but that just seems to return the file path from the local machine.
Ideally I'd like it if someone can get this to work with a file on a web server without using asp. If not then I suppose I'd have to use the FileSystemObject method. I can see how you can get a list of files from a remote server using FileSystemObject.
The problem I need help with is selecting a file path from the list of files into a text form box. The path of which I am then going to write to a database field.

B123,2
C123,3
Results are...
ID: A123
ID: 1 B123
ID: 2 C123
ID: 3
I expected something like...
A123 1
B123 2
C123 3
For the sake of understanding, why are the results like above?
In the end, I want to insert these values into a table.
A123 into Field1 .... 1 into Field2
B123 into Field1 .... 2 into Field2
C123 into Field1 .... 3 into Field2
Where do I start?
I was under the impression if I had a page with several database queries to 3 different databases, it would be faster if I just had the queries cached to text files since the query result won't change that often and I build the cache manually when needed.
So my question is would it be faster to just include text files instead of doing multiple Access and SQL queries on a web page?
i am working on a page which calls an asp page on another server with some xml and then gets some xml back. the page calls and returns the xml fine but trying to display that xml properly is the problem.
here is the code:
Code:
set req = Server.CreateObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP")
req.Open "POST","http://www.domain.com/xmldata.asp", false
req.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
req.send "username=foo&password=bar"
resp = req.ResponseText
response.write(resp)
so basically it just dumps raw xml into the browser at the moment. Code:

If Left(Extension, 1) <> "." Then Extension = "." & Extension

View Replies View RelatedI have a routine I'm writing to read the contents of a file and modify it. However the file will not parse properly into an array, so I strongly suspect I'm using the wrong character to parse the file. The line of code that is supposed to parse the file is:
arrLines = Split(sFileContent, vbCRLF)
When I view the array, it appears as one continuous line, but when I open the file in a file editor it's very clear there are 15 lines.
I've got a league standings file that gets uploaded as an xls file. To display the contents, I'm not sure what the most efficient way is:
1.) Import the xls file into a database every time the file is updated
2.) Read the contents of the xls file using OpenDataSource or OpenRow Set
3.) Something I haven't thought of yet!
