I have been assigned the task fo displaying the directory contents of another server on our intranet. I can display contents of directories on the local machine but how do I tell the File System Object to look at a directory on another server/ machine on the network. Is there a virtual path or actual path way of doing it?
View RepliesI have written a script to update user information in the Active Directory using ADSI. Here is part of it:
Set User = GetObject("LDAP://<GUID=" & GUID & ">")
User.Department = DepartmentName
User.SetInfo
Set User = Nothing
This works fine unless DepartmentName is an empty string ("").
Then I get error 0x8007200B: "The attribute syntax specified to the directory service is invalid."
This happens with all the attributes I have tried, including TelephoneNumber
.
Do I need to delete the value of the attribute instead of setting it to an empty string? If so, how do I do it?
Could somebody please help me out with this? I have been researching it all day and can't figure it out.
All I want to do is put some info from this XML file (staff.xml):
<staff>
<employee id="1">
<name>John</name>
<job>Janitor</job>
</employee>
<employee id="2">
<name>Mary</name>
<job>Accountant</job>
</employee>
</staff>
into an ASP page. I already started an ASP page:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<%
Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
objXMLDoc.async = False
objXMLDoc.load("staff.xml")
response.write("<p>")
'I NEED TO INSERT THE FIRST PERSON'S NAME HERE
response.write("<br>")
'I NEED TO INSERT THE FIRST PERSON'S JOB HERE
response.write("</p>")
response.write("<p>")
'I NEED TO INSERT THE SECOND PERSON'S NAME HERE
response.write("<br>")
'I NEED TO INSERT THE SECOND PERSON'S JOB HERE
response.write("</p>")
%>
</body>
</html>
That's all I have in the ASP page because I am having trouble with it. Could somebody please help with it real quick? I'm sure it's very simple, but I am having trouble learning the XMLDOM thingy.
anyone know a simple to use RSS/XML feed getter so i can add external news
to my site?
I got a little piece of ASP code to read from a remote url, which is expected to be an xml, like a RSS feed, and echo the content out to be processed by downstream xml processor. The code is like this:
<%response.ContentType="text/xml"%><%
Response.Buffer = false
Dim objXMLHTTP, xml, url, text
Set xml = Server.CreateObject ("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
url = Request.QueryString("url")
xml.Open "GET", url, false
xml.Send
text = xml.ResponseText
Response.write(text)
Set xml = Nothing
%>
Using firefox, I get the request.responseXML object back from the code above, works fine. But in IE, the request.responseXML is returned null, but request.responseText did show the entire xml file.
My question is how should I make change to the above code to let IE honor the request.responseXML object? I gues the xml is somewhat ill formatted and IE can not recognize it as an xml.
I have an ASP classic site that needs to add the option of reading an XML file send back from another web site and parsing it into a multi-column HTML table. The server is Windows Server 2003. Can anyone direct me to where I might find more info on this?

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:

2.) Read the contents of the xls file using OpenDataSource or OpenRow Set
3.) Something I haven't thought of yet!

My ultimate end is to read the xls file into a mysql database.. but I need some method, way or idea of actually doing this. Presently the data is an a .mdb database (so I can save it to different formats) but I cannot use the .mdb itself to upload the info (server disallows reading and writing from .mdb).
I've looked all over and there is no detailed method of doing this (all I really need is just the basic code for connecting to a .xls sheet (excel sheet) and then reading the data from a line and displaying it on the screen (there is no present tutorial that explains that, least that I can find)

I've been searching the net for a good example of how to read nodes from a XML file using ASP classic (VBScript), but I couldn't find any.
