I am about to start developing a site that will allow users to create profiles. I would really like to be able to allow them to send and recieve e-mails to their profiles. Kind of like Yahoo (mail.yahoo.com) I would set up mail.mysite.com.
Of course I would want to have Virus and Spam protection on it, they would access it via the web, and it would be really awesome if they could sync mobile devices to it - like Web Enables PDAs with mobile outlook.
If it could be like outlook web access where the user can have contacts, a calendar, etc. That would be fantastic.
Anyway, does anyone know which corner of the web I should start my search? I don't know the technologies involved, would I need a SQL back end or anything? I'm really a first day guy on this subject.
What I am planning on having is ASP.Net, MySQL and use as many open source projects as possible to pull this site together to keep costs down. Usually I work with PHP/Apache, but a follow phase to this will be an application that will run locally, so that's why I'm working with ASP.
I am still pretty new to .asp but I have a user db where I capture user log ins. When a user logs on session variables are created (e.g. User_ID, member_type) which I use to check user bona fides when they access user only pages.
Question: How can I determine when they leave the site or that they are still accessing the site?
I have had a trawl through ServerVariables but that only provides the info for my sesssion and nobody else.
I want to be able to log in a database any transactions my users perform. For example logging in, requesting a page, downloading a resource, logging out etc.
What is the most practical way to code this? I was thinking of trying to use an include file which would have a function to add a log in the database for each page on the site or when a particular action is performed.
I am to build a site onto an ASP server. Anyone here used Dreamweaver and is it just a simple matter of opening up a new ASP page in Dreamweaver and build the site like you would normally do with a HTML page and it will handle the ASP coding accordingly and you can just simply upload it onto an ASP server and it will work?
The site I am to build is basically just a standard html website, but my friend wants me to build it for an ASP server so he has asked me to make sure it is an asp site so I am presuming with the extension .asp
If I build it as a html site to begin with, will converting it to asp be hard. Could I just export my pages into asp or is there more to it?
Can a Html website be loaded and working on an asp server or host?
Is it possible to have a site mixed both html and asp, eg. the home page is html and when you click on shopping cart on the home page it goes to a hopping cart page thats .asp or do they all have to have the same extension.
I have to pass form data from my site to another organizations site using POST method... how exactly do I do that? Im familiar with how to do it within a single site/domain, and cant use querystring... I dont know where to begin.
Whenever I do a site that is mostly static but with some semi-dynamic sections, I've struggled to find a good site search solution without paying for a hosted search service.
I like the FSO-based search engines, but they fail to pick up on some of the dynamic part.
I was just creating a Google sitemap and it made me wonder: has anyone created or seen a script that uses the XML Google sitemap to power a search engine for your own site?
Seems like if you were keeping it updated for Google, why not use it for your own site?
I'm about to transfer my site from a free server provider to a paid provider, and I was wondering what would be the best way to go about redirecting to the new site. I have a few tutorial/guides posted on other sites that link to my old one which i would like to have redirected to my new site. Instead of manually going into each file, and adding redirect code is there a way where I can make it so I can edit one file, and that would handle the redirecting for all pages?
I have an ASP Page that I would like to be redirected to two different web pages. Does anyone know if it is possible to redirect the web page to two different web pages at the same time?
I would like for the ASP page to redirect to the following pages:
1.) a href="javascript:OpenNewWindow('<%=page%>')">View <%= PageName%> </a>
2.) Response.redirect "staff.asp" (this is correct)
I have changed my web page so when users submit the data the page doesn't get redirected but it submits to itself, so visibly it clear the values and submits and they are happy as that speeds up the process but what I haven't relized up until now is that because the INSERT query is part of the code on the same page the INSERT is happening every time the page is refreshed or every time the page is accessed/loaded and I get these NULL values.
I mean that is not such a huge problem at the moment, I can see which records where the result of loading/refershing the page and which ones are true submissions but I am thinking it shouldn't be this way.Can this be done so it doesn't insert null records, how can I change the page so it visibly works the same way but doens't insert nulls.
I need to open an asp page (which gets information from a SQL data base) and show it, let say for 15 seconds and then redirect this page to another asp page. waiting to receive your codes in asp, vbs,j s, etc.
I need to make 6 asp pages for uni. will call these 1.asp - 6.asp.
so for 2.asp, this page needs to be only accessible from 1.asp page. and accessing the page directly by entering its URL into the browser must be denied by redirecting the browser to 1.asp.
Once, I found it quite convenient to try and redirect users to a particular page using Response.Redirect()... and in the URL, appended "#section3". To my surprise, this didn't work.
Knowing bookmarks are exclusively a matter for the browser, um.., is this the ONLY reason why you can't do this? Code:
I have enforced SSL connections on my website to make it secure. My problem is if the users go to http://wesite-url they get an error message saying:The page must be viewed over a secure channel
The page you are trying to view requires the use of "https" in the address.
Instead of showing this error page, I want to automatically redirect them to https://website-url. Is it possible?? Do I need to to program this in gloabal.asa?
i am facing this problem when i redirect to a asp page using -Response.redirect "mynext.asp"
the problem is that the current page is using frames so this mynext.asp is also getting loaded in the frame itself. i need to remove all the frames and load this mynext.asp in the entire browser window. kind of like the <a href="mynext.htm" target="_top"> of html.
I am working on a system where a program will send a user to a page e.g. www.mysite.com/customer.asp?id=xxxx (where xxx is the userid). If id=xxxx doesn't exist I want the system to redirect the user to a registration page where he or she can add their info, including the id=xxxx to a an access db. The next time the user uses this software, it will send them to the same (now existing) page. is this possible?
I have a site using ASP Sessions, everything in this respect is working fine and the timeout is working perfectly. However, when sessions timeout and a user navigates somewhere it simply returns 'Page cannot be displayed', ideally i would like the system to return them to the home page. how to do this if it can be done?
I want to add a favicon.ico to one of my websites. Because this is a large site, with two domains sharing an IP, I want to be able to redirect the favicon .ICO file from my VBScript Error 404 file (depending upon the domain name). Anybody have directions for doing this? In my Error 404 file, I can place this is the partocilar domain secitons"
strQueryString = LCase(getSerVar("QUERY_STRING")) If InStr(strQueryString, "favicon.ico") <= 0 Then ' WHAT GOES HERE TO PROVIDE THE .ICO FILE? End If
I am having ASP page in which i am using three frames say frame1, frame2, frame3 frame1 and frame2 are fixed In frame3 asp page is opened depending on link clicked on frame2.
In some conditions i want to open the asp page on whole page rather than in frame3 when the link in frame2 is clicked. i am using response.redirect but it opens thepage in frame3 only.
The Gecko based browsers change this URL to read "Validation BookingNo=1234567" and of course they get a 404 Error as a result. The above code works on every other browser without fault. So why do Gecko based browsers have a problem. Is Gecko just nother work for this software.
How do I redirect a non existing image link on my server to another image?
On a page in "Server A", there's this tag: <img src="image_url_on_Server_B" >
suppose I want to remove the image from "Server B", and the tag above will display a different image, which was redirected due the absense of the original image src.
I want to be able to send users links to pages in my website. But if they arent logged in I want them to first be redirected to the login page and after they login automatically be redirected to the page i sent them in the link. How would i accomplish this.
