Reading Dropdown Values In ASP
I have an ASP application where I need to not only read the selected item from a combo box on a web page but also all the options in the combo box. Can someone point me in the right direction.
I can obviously use request.querystring() or request.form() to get the selected value but not sure about how to get the options.

I am building a link exchagne for a medical web site. To get categories for the link exchange, I Googled "medical categories" and came up with a very, very good list of medical categories. they were seperated by a <br> tag. I went through the code and extracted all but the following (see below).
What I want to do is somehow create a list of "options" for this categories in a select dropdown, with the category being the value for the option AND displayed in the dropdown. You know what I mean. I would think it would involve reading in a text file and inserting the necessary code. Code:

I have 2 drop down menus with data populated dynamically from a database.
Category
Subcategory
If i select an appropriate category the subcategory should change instantly to show the subcategories relating to the selected category. But i can't use a form submit, because before the forms are other textboxes with other values that i don't want to wipe on a page refresh.
I need to somehow preload the categories and their related subcategories. I've been trawling through examples, most are harcoded combobox values which won't work for me.

I have been trying to read values from a form into an array on a page without much success and was told to use a Scripting.Dictionary instead.
There are a variable number of fields on the form as it is different according to which product is ordered (as are the fields that are used to create the record.) Code:

I am trying to learn and use good DHTML concepts and code (assuming they are needed). My current issue concerns how to handle this situation.
I have a Select List box which displays values based on what value is selected in a dropdown list. For example, my dropdown list contains a class name, and the Select list contains all of the students who are registered for that class.
So what I would like to occur, is when the user changes the class from the dropdown box, the Select List is re-created displaying the students who are enrolled in that class.
I thought I could do this without having to reload the page (with DHTML) but here is my problem. Code:

I have a category that I will call "company". in my access DB, there are about 6 or so companies. On another table, I have a list of locations that are related to these companies.
What I want to do, is have a drop down menu that lists all the companies. When you select the company, the second drop down menu will automatically populate with the locations of the company you selected in the first dropdown.
Anyone know any links to some examples of this? My google searches have been pretty fruitless since Im having a bit of a problem trying to explain it concisely (as you probably noticed).

I want to call a recordset so you can edit the details and then obviously pass the parameters onwards into the db. However, the user guide just says this:
To process other fields in the form, use the Form collection of the upload object the same way you would use the Form collection of the Request object. For example, if your form had a text element named UserName, your processing code would include: Code:

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.

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.

am trying to create a login page for the first time, I have a login page, validate login page and if the password is correct it takes me to the first page.
I have customized this code someone else created,but what I have a problem with now is I need to log who submitted that data and that is why I am trying to read UserName cookie so I can later match that data.
This is the error I get which is telling me that it is reading the cookie since this is the UserName I am logging in with
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14)
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid column name 'boxhill'.
but I can't see what is wrong, and there is not much out there for this kind of error.
So I can login successfully but now i need to read and dispaly that cookie and then insert the value of the cookie but,but don't worry about that now, just trying to give you the full picture.
So this is the code for reading the cookie ...

What is a good method to read a file that is hosted on another server. I really want to echo the code found between a "<PRE>" and "</PRE>" tag found in the source of an externally hosted file. How should I go about this? I am somewhat new to ASP, but am confident there is a way.

I 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!

I cannot figure this out for the life of me. All the tutorials I've gone though give code (and from what it looks like, wrong code) with absolutely no explanation?
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 could post the various bits of code that I've tried to use to get this to work... but it'd be kind of pointless as I haven't gotten very far with either of them (I've run across encoding problems, and problems where it works on the local machine, but not through ASP. I've tried using an XLT doc and without).
