Am trying to restrict user from entering non ASCII character in the text area. Say if the user entered non ASCII character then on the form post back it should show them the message like:
"non ASCII character between the word1+word2"
I'm familiar with using the split function, but i've never had to do it on an ascii character before.
I am given a datastring that looks something like this:
Code: ....

query = query & "' ORDER BY DateAvailable"
RS.Open query, Connect
do until RS.EOF

Is it possible to paste the contents of a text file into a text area form field, and then run an asp/vbscript routine to update the database.
The text file contents to be pasted would be in the format:
1234, Y

1236, Y

View Replies View RelatedI am working on a asp and sql website that I did not make. It runs an asp based content management system, where users can enter news articles. They enter the "body" into a text box/area and can add images separatly. The image will show up to the to left of the article.
This goes into a SQL database, and gets pulled out by asp for the webpage. I want to make it so a user can add in an image into the body of the article ( like in a word document ) and have it show up where they put it. What is the easiest way to do this. Both easy on me and the user.

I have a form which contains a textarea input, when I request the value of this and display the contents in HTML the carriage returns are gone, so I am trying to find a way to re-insert any carrigage returns.

View Replies View RelatedI have a radio button, a check box and a text box in a web page. From this page, I go to a series of other pages. In one of the following webpages I am providing an option to come back to the first page which has the radio button, check box and the text box.
When doing so, I need to retain the values I originally checked in teh radio button and the text box, and also the text in the text box. I understand that I need to carry it through a session variable, but I dont know how I can do it.
I'm creating a form and I have a text box that can't be over 90 characters. I've been trying to accomplish two things but I'm afraid it's just out of my reach, technically.
1. I would like to setup some validation that checks to make sure that the text box isn't over 90 characters when the form is submitted.
2. If possible I would like to do one of the following things. Have a live character count that increases in real-time for every character that is entered. I've seen this before but I don't know if it's feasible in my case. If that's not possible then I would like to have a 'check count' button that displays the current character count (including spaces) in the text box....

I need to replace all non US-ASCII characters. What is the easiest way to do this?
sample code would be great.
"The PayPal website only accepts US-ASCII and 7 non-ASCII German characters. The 7 characters are ä, ö, ü, Ä, Ö, Ü, and ß."
I am doing a reskin of an ASP site, MS SQL in the back end. I made a copy of the site and DB and am using them as my development site. Fine so far, but here's where it gets wierd. I am getting random ASCII characters throughout my text, not totaly random, for example a double quote will come back as ’. So they're consistant. This is both for data in a file, and data from the DB, but I'm fairly certain all of it is qwritten with Response.Write.
These two sites are in identical environments, on the same server, using the same DB (well a copy of one anyway)
I use ASP, but i dont think it matters. I am parsing large text files. some of them have non standard characters. I just want to parse a file and replace anything that is not found on a keyboard in usa. I just want to keep:
A-Z, a-z, 0-9, .,?'"!@#$%^&*()-_=+";:<>/|}{[]`~
everything else i want to remove (asian letters, wacky characters, etc)
how can i check if page was initialiy loaded or if it's postback?
View Replies View RelatedI always see the term "postback" from ASP book, but I am not sure if I fully understand the meaning. Here's my understanding so far, please correct me if any mistakes. here's a typical html form:
<form action="process.asp" method="post">
'GUI code
</form>
"postback" action happens when the user click the submit button, that means it will invoke "process.asp" is the above code. In ASP.NET, if the web control has set AutoPostBack property to True, that means when there is any events on the web control, it will invoke "process.asp", just like the user click the submit button.
I am getting to a stage with my site that i have so many entries in the database that i am thinking of adding an a-z at the top of the page. Thinking aboout this further and how it may work i thought that this would use a post back method where it passess for example the letter "a" in the link (Am i on the right lines?

I have these strings which are pulled from a database which contains both
english and chinese characters(big5).
e.g.
Fragrant Rice 10kg Green Dragon?
Broken Rice 10kg G.Elephant?
I want to split the string at the first occurance of the non ascii character so that i can get the english and chinese parts separated.
I'm trying to catch some characters in a string before they are entered into a database that are not ASCII and convert them to ASCII characters. The characters in question are the angular double quotes but this could be associated with similar occurences. I want to check for left angular double quotes [“] or right angular double quotes [“] and replace them with straight double quotes ["].
(I'm not actually storing the HTML equivalents - they are simply there to give you an idea of which characters I'm on about.)a way of catching these buggers? I've tried using chr(8220) (the numeric code for one of the illegal characters apparently) but ASP has a problem working with numbers outside the character map.
