Resolving Include Paths
I have developed an application which works correctly when hosted on a server running Windows Server 2003 and IIS. However, I have to present this application to a different company so I want to create a standalone version on my laptop. My laptop is running Windows XP, IIS 5.1 and has SQLServer Server tools installed.This works on the server:
Code:
<!--#include virtual="connection/connOLEDB_Live.asp"-->
However, I have to add the folder name to the path:I know that I could go through my application changing all of the paths but each time I make changes to the pages I would have to go through the application changing the paths again. Can anybody tell me if there is an easy way of configuring my machine to resolve the file paths to include the name of the folder?

I have got a site with thousands of members with their own profile, now what I want is that obviously has got their own link, www.mydomain.com/membername.
this then should resolve into www.mydomain.com/member.asp?id=124 or whatever number, now i know there is a way to do this, to create all member folders and have an index page in there that redirects to the members.asp, but the reason I want to do it this way is that I don't want to have 5000 folders on my server. how can i resolve a folder name into a filename + id... without having this folder.

I have a page (Page 1) that allows users to select several search criteria. These criteria are then passed via the URL to another page (Page 2) that runs a query and displays the result. I keep getting an 'invalid number' error and I need help fixing it.
To save space I'm only including the query. I created and set up a connection object and a recordset object (rs).
Users may select multiple Project_ID's from Page 1, they are passed in the URL as Project_ID, Project_ID, etc. Code:

I currently have a few asp pages linking together. On one page (postNew1.asp) it has a form that allows administrative users to enter a new form.
When creating a new form, there is also a file input box for the user to upload a filename.
If the user does not enter a correct filename, I have an alert box showing "invalid filename" when ever the user presses the "OK". It will not allow him to go anywhere until he enters a valid filename. Code:

I am trying to solve a problem on a production server, that unfortunately is
not repeatable on our development server. It is for a bank, and the site is
being hosted by a different company.
Anyway the problem is this. There is a directory where a number of pdfs are
stored. Here is the structure.
bank
| |_
| bank2004
| |_
| images
| |_
| pdfs
images
|_
pdfs
The current pdfs we want to access are in the bank/bank2004/images/pdfs/
directory. The old pdfs with the same names but different content are in the
bank/images/pdfs/ dir.
There are three types of pdfs we retrieve. Personal Applications, Business
Applications and Brochures. Our software writes all three types to that
branch of directories fine using pretty much the same methods for each type.
But when our web pages read them back, the 'brochures' type are pulled from
the old bank/images/pdfs directory instead of the current 2004 one. The
appplication pdfs are fine, they are read from the 2004 branch. The code
used to get the applications is virtually identical to the brochure code,
and it all works like clockwork on the dev box with exactly the same setup,
so it cant be the code.
I'm guessing it's some kind of directory mapping or someting on the iis
server, but I dont have access to the configuration of this server. There
are quick fixes to this problem, such as putting all our new pdf brochures
into the old directory, but my boss wants to know why this is happening.
Has anyone had a similar experience who can at least point me the right way.
I have next to no knowlege of iis, but I'm guessing it has to be server
related.

I have written a program which uses a directory structure upto 4 dirs deep.
I reference the include file
<!--#include file="../../includes/main_page_open.asp"-->
main_page_open.asp contains the line
server.execute("../includes/checkPerms.asp")
I get an error saying
Server object error 'ASP 0228 : 80004005'
Server.Execute Error
/ios/includes/main_page_open.asp, line 32 The call to Server.Execute failed while loading the page.
The basis for the error is pretty straight forward - because the file (main_page_open.asp) is being called from a directory, two deep, the file attempting to be executed cant be executed because the system is looking in the wrong directory.
Now, before someone says; change the path; I cant do that because many (about 100) other files reference the same file with no problem.

If I've enabled Parent Paths (PP) in IIS, but have installed the URL Filter
and disallowed ".." and "../" within links, am I covered from the
vulnerabilities of PP's?
This allows me to use PP's in #Include statements, but doesn't allow
visitors to use PP's in their links to access directories on my server.
Is this correct?

Our web application is currently using relative paths in various places throughout our code. im working on eliminating this, but not sure of the best way to go about
it. i want to avoid hardcoding the path to make migration easier and more manageable. i thought there is a way to user the request object?? request.servervariables or

I am trying to learn new stuff using asp. That means I am downloading a lot of examples and looking at them. Sometimes thats all I do is look and compare his/her code to my attempt but also sometimes I need to see a working demo. I find I am replacing the path a lot. Is there a faster way to do this.
can Create a txt file with paths in them and use that to get paths from. It would be differant if I was using the pages but I do not evan have a webpage yet just iis setup on my home comp.

Can anyone help me find a solution to quickly working out relative paths to
a folder in the root of my server...
Although it easy when you go - say - two levels down:
.../includes
it becomes increasingly difficult to ball park the folder when you go deeper
and wider down:
.../.../.../includes
....How do you guys get a quick fix on where the hell the folder or file is
and use that path in asp?

Anyone know a useful way of hiding image paths so images on my site cant be directly linked to?
I've seen sites that use <img src="image.asp?/moo/fred/image01.jpg"> (where the path starts from www.domain.com/secretfolder/moo/fred/image01.jpg) but dont know how to set this up.
BTW am on a shared host so dont have the use of base level administration if it makes any difference?

Does someone have a reasonable method for concealing the paths to data when using ASP to MS Access?
I maintain a website where some data is intended to be released according to date:time. Some visitors like to "jump the release date" and just copy-n-paste the visible short cuts so they can get an early view of the material stored in a MS Access database.
Because I do want to continue using a straightforward naming convention for the various files, I was hoping someone might have information on how they had kept from pre-releasing information in this situation.

I have a standard Header.asp that I want to include in every other page in
my site. Header.asp is located in the root folder, but the calling pages are
in various folders/levels. Since the relative paths specified in header are
subject to change and are based on the relative path of the calling page,
problems arise. (Strangley, using the IFRAME method of including a header
doesn't react the same way.)
The solution I believe lies in using absolute paths in the Header.asp file
using the "virtual" include qualifier. But this assumes your development
directory structure is the same as your production environment. So I guess
that is the answer. Use absolute paths and set up your development directory
structure to be identical to your production.

Config:
IIS 6 Windows 2003
Site_A
Site_B
Scenario:
I need a virtual directory in Site_B to serve the files in Site_A (without redirecting the request) so I just added for example Site_B/A as a vdir, and set it's home dir to the physical root of Site_A (eg. C:inetpubwwwrootSite_A) sounds simple enough... not for long:
Problem (nb. I tend to use forward slashes as web/iis paths and backslash as windows filesystem paths):
The include files in Site_A reside in: Site_Aincludes and the include statements in the ASP code seem to be absolute virtual paths (if such a thing exists) for example: <!--#include virtual="/includes/header.asp"--> Code:

I want to be to call my menu from another file onto my page so that i dont have to add it to every page of my website. The problem is when i try to add it using the include method it says that only one include file is allowed on an ASP. The other include file is my connection string so i cant really take that out of the page because then nothing else will work!
How can i get the menu page included as well as the connecting string?
Have added the code below, i have highlighted the 2 include files that i want to use in blue, i have also left the div tag in for where i currently have the menu which is what i want to take out and have ther include file there instead, if that makes sense. Basically the bit in red i want to be able to remove from all of my pages and add the blue file above the red code in instead, but i dont know how!!!!! Code:

If I want to include a file to my webpage that is not placed in the same
folder asd the application, but in another folder on the same disk...
I found out that this is not going to work:

Is there any other way to include from another domain account on the same
server?
There is going to be several applications that includes the same file, so

When I first started using Server Side Includes I used the regular file include:
Code:
<!--#include file = "myfile.asp"-->
Then I read where the virtual include is much beter. I figured I would try it out, so on my last project I used all virtual includes:
Code:
<!--#include virtual = "/somedirectory/somefile.asp"-->
It worked fine and I really couldn't tell any differnce. Maybe a little easier to remember where all the file needed to point to. But this was for a New Site so testing it on the server was easy. I didn't have to worry about existing content up there.
I'm now redesigning a site to add in some dynamic stuff and I always test everything on the server it will reside on to be sure everything will work. Typically I create a "v2" directory and run everything from there. Well this really screws me up when using a virtual include, becuase I would have to edit and then rededit all my file paths.
So my question is... What do you use? And why are file includes so bad?
