Replace Blank Form Value With A Default Value
Just wondering if there is a way to give a default value to a form text box if it is left blank. I can set a default value for the textbox but then it shows up in the textbox and that is not what I want. I would like it just determine if the form is blank and change it to the needed value accordingly.
I'll ask a second part to this question as well in case I am going about this all wrong.
What I have is a search page where a user can search for names from a database. However if I have 5 textboxes of different criteria to search from then if all of them are filled then it would have to match a record in the database exactly....
but if only one or two textboxes are used then the other textboxes basically are now set to a wild card. In this case they would be "%". Also to make things more complicated I am using the frontpage DRW for the SQL query.

What I need to know is how to click on a button that is labeled NEW, as in new record, and have the current form open to data input. That is a blank record. After the user then inputs the data to all the fields on the screen and hits the SAVE button the record will then be placed into the database table.

I have created a database were you submit a job by entering the fields which is fine if it is a site visit but if it is a phone call or remote help not all the fields need to be filled in but if there not filled in it wont submit the values to the database i get data mismatch error code is below.
I either need to be able to send them blank values to the database or ideally i wont to create a option box with Phone call, Site visit and remote help which when selected takes you to the correct page which have different values in the form to fill in.

I have a page that processes a form and one of the fields might be empty as it's optional if it gets selected or not.
In my process page I would like to check if the form field news_image is empty or not.
How would I do this?
<% If Request.Form("news_image") = "" Then %>
Is that how you do it?

I' m getting a (0x80040E2F) error, if I submit my form, with blank textboxes
to my update stored procedure. The stored procedure expect values, so how
can I detect if a form field was empty. I've tried testing to see if the
form field is null, blank and to count the characters, but I can't get it
working. My SQL table allows nulls, so it's not that.

I'm working on a form where the user is not required to fill out every text input. How mught I check for that in an ASP script. Here's what I have:
If Request.Form("mp3title1") == ""
amnt = 0;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title2") == ""
amnt = 1;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title3") == ""
amnt = 2;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title4") == ""
amnt = 3;
Else If Request.Form("mp3title5") == ""
amnt = 4;
End If
Pretty straight forward, its checking in order if the first element is left blank, is the correct technique:
== "", or is there more to it?

I have a form that is being sent over to an asp page. About 5% of the time, the form fields are blank when the ASP page is reading them. But when the user hit the submit button, they were not blank, because I have client-side validation that will not allow the submit to occur if any of the fields are blank. When this occurs, all the fields in the request.form object are blank?

I have got a form where I offer a default date (01.01.2004) and visitors
can change it and make queries in the database.
After changing this, the customized date should be displayed in the form
instead of the default one.
If Request.Form("BeginDate") <> "" then
iBeginDate = "01.01.2001"
end if
....
<input name="BeginDate" type="text" class="form" value="<%=Request.Form
("BeginDate")%>
Now the entered date keeps, that's fine, but when at the first visit
there is no default date.

I created a feedback form for my website that has only 2 required fields. When you submit the form it calls my asp page which puts the information in a database and then sends me n email with the information that was entered into the form. The problem is that the form only has two required fileds, and if the remaining non required fields are left empty when the asp page is called it does write to the data base, but does not send me any email. However if I go back in and put somethng in every field in the form then when I submit the form and my asp page is called it writes to the data base and sends me an email with the all the information I entered in the feedback form. Is there a way to tell my asp page that it is ok to send the email even if the non required fields are left empty? I really do not want to have to go back through the form and put default values in for each area of the form? Also is there a way to have an error displayed if the email is not sent? My asp code is below....

I am trying to use AUTH_USER from request.servervariables but the field is
blank. I am using Windoze server 2003 with IIS5. I know there is a fix
because I did it a long time ago with our old NT server running IIS4 but I
cant remember how I got it to work. We are all authenticated users on our
Domain so this is available, I am able to get IP info and such. I seem to
remember some kind of ASP code that did the fix by altering the way the web
server displays info.

I had a problem for a while where data was added on its own, and BLANK data. I found out it was because i was opening the processPage.asp to see if it was working, so that was inputting data out of the form that wasnt there. So i get blank data. Is there anyway i can make the process work ONLY if there is data in the form?? Code:

I have a drop down list, values coming from a db, when I come into the form I want it to have no value - how do I do this? Also, if I want to capture the value that a person selects from the drop down list do I need to use a session variable if I want to print it to the screen after they select it?

I'm getting some errors in my .asp code somewhere but I can't seem to figure them out because all I get is a blank 500 error screen. I don't get any description of the error, just a blank screen so I don't know what the problem is.
Just wondering if there's a way to get the results easily because I do not have admin rights to the server so I can't make a custom 500 error page or i would.

We use Vignette V5.6 to display our site. In our CMA site, we have a page which has FRAMESET and in one of the frames we call a ASP page. There seems to be some problem that the frame shows the ASP page is blank. When we restart the IIS it works fine. But after some time it again shows the blank.
If we get one blank page, all the asp pages under the same virtual directory, called in the Frame shows blank. FYI. The Vignette template which contains the frame is marked for NO caching & For itnernal use only.

All my fields give that error when I try to leave it blank when inserting a new record. The field is not required in the database, so what do I have to do to insert it as blank?
SQL:
Code:
INSERT INTO Tablename (REQUIRED, NOTREQUIRED) VALUES ('tag', '')
Error:
Code:
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Field 'Tablename.NOTREQUIRED' cannot be a zero-length string.

I have an online application made up of ASP pages (IIS 5.0 on Windows 2000 Server) drawing data from a SQL Server database. Most of the time, everything works exactly as it should. Connections are opened to the database, queries are run and data is returned and writen out, connections are closed, etc.
However, every so often a page simply won't load. It isn't trying to load and then timing out or anything, it's like it's ignoring the page entirely. It shows the correct URL in the address bar of IE, but there's nothing but a blank white page displayed. Viewing the source of the blank page reveals that instead of the correct code for the page, we get this: Code:

I am writing an application which when the code first loads there is a form which all the fields are blank. I then need to test some date fields to check if the end date is before the start date etc. The form fails to work. So I then wrote a test asp page which has a single box I then use an If...
Else statement if it is Blank then do nothing if it has data in the text box then display a message. The form works ok until I input text and then it does not detect any input text in it and therefore does not display the message. This is totally the oppoisite of the original application which does not detect the form is empty. Code:

Ok, I have two pages. One that displays the table (page a), and one that exports the table to Excel (page b). When you click the "Export to Excel" link on page a, page b automatically opens up the save/open dialogue box for the Excel document.
Everything works fine on my computer (whether you choose to open or save), however on MOST computers it seems, the Excel document is blank with the exception of the column headers. Here is the code for page b which does all the exporting. Code:

Response.write(bla bla)
else if tf.value = null then
Response.write(bla bla)

I want to display the contents of a field with a label if there is data in that field. If there isn't then I don't want the label to appear.
I tried this:
<%If Venueinfo("email") = "" Then
Else%>Email: <a href="mailto:<%=Venueinfo("email")%>">Click to
email</a><br><%End If%>
But it doesn't seem to work. It seems to always display the label and link even though there is no data in that field.
