View RepliesI have made a registration form for adding my friends information in a
database. The problem is that I want to connect the persons with companies
in the same database. I wonder how i could connect a person to several other
id's in a table.
I wonder if I can make a string in the database that holds all the id's
separated with , for example....?
the string would then look like this:
1,4,6,22,56
for example...
But how can I then open this string and separate the numbers from the , ???
I have a form that when the user inserts the password data it is supposed to update the member info in the database with the password but instead it just adds a new row with the password and leaves the id requiring the password blank. SO it does add to the database but just not in the correct row.
Here is the code that I have:

Im passing a ID value to a pop up window attached to a variable named 'cat'.
Its passing it across fine, but the following code doesnt seem to be working in relation to it:
strsql = "SELECT cat_ID, art_Artist, art_Title, art_FDescription, art_Price, art_PicFull " &_
"FROM eventDisplay WHERE cat_ID='" & cat & "' "
can anybody see what im doing wrong here?

I'm trying to update a database from a form, but only by updating the info that was changed on the form (if that makes sense.) Basically, the problem I am having it that the if statements I have setup to build the sql isn't working when the database doesn't have any info in that field. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI have a database on my server that houses information regarding trouble tickets. I know how to write asp page to take the inputted info from a form and put it in the database but what I would like to know if someone could show me or point me in the direction of a good tutorial that shows me how to list all the content in my database on a web page.
For instance I would have a page titled, view all tickets, then on that page would be a listing of all the tickets and their information with buttons to add, delete or update ticket.
I can display information to a webpage from a database and handle the connections etc. My next task is a bit more complicated for myelf. Id like to have a page the pulls information from a record set and displays like this.
down one side
the container numbers
along the top
the products in the containers
the information in the middle would be the amount of product that came on that container.
Im just wondering how the best way to setup my database would be, and the best way to setup the asp webpage. (oh) nearly forgot, it has to repeat the information till all the records are finished but i guess that gos without saying.
I have a table in an Access database that is called news. Inside that table is a field name called newsNews. I'm trying to get that is in that field to display on a page and her is my code:
View Replies View RelatedIm doing a login page for my website, and it seems i have to do this:
'Database connection info and driver
strCon = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};uid=;pwd=letmein; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath(strAccessDB)
What the hell is that? Do I just put the physical path of my DB in there?
Except for extremely basic ASP programming that I did two years ago and have forgotten I have not touched coding since!
I've taken a look at a couple of tutorials but they all baffle me!
Can anyone tell me how I can just create a simple html form with input fields of FirstName, LastName, Email and Phone amd when the user hits submit it is recorded in an access database?
I can do the HTML part fine. And I believe I've set up access ok although Ive never used it before.
Also, if the server that the database will go on is a Microsoft one i suspect that is ok? Im not sure if all i have to do is upload the database and it will work? or do i need to talk to my hosting company to set up some kind of odbc thing that ive heard about?
My database will just be called clients.mdb and the table is called Customers.
if I have a list of book names and prices and I just want the info to be called onto an HTML page to be displayed how would I do that?
It sounds easy...but who knows with code? :P
I havent' set up the database yet but i suspect it will just be called books.mdb and the table will be called Books.
Fields in the table will be
Name, Type, Condition, Price
Code:
while (!MyQuery.EOF){
Response.Write("<tr><td colspan='2' class='results'>" + MyQuery('Title') + "</td>");
Response.Write("<td align='right' class='results'>£ " + MyQuery('Price') + "</td></tr>");
MyQuery.MoveNext();
}
I have that returning a record set to display ! I then need to make it so the "Title" is a link to a page with all the information shown for that book! How would i go about doing this ?
I have two forms, one on each page. The user fills the first, then the second, then on the third page all the information is displayed for the user to make sure thats what they want to send.
Then they click submit on the third page and it goes through a database and depending on which category, state and county the user selected it will email all the information displayed on that third page to all the emails in the Email field in the database.
Now, I already have the first and second pages(easy enough) and the third page I can get it to display all the info how I want it and now I need to know how to go about emailing that info to the emails that match the specific fields? Right now all I have it doing on the third page, instead of submitting it for emailing, it just displays the info from the forms AND emails that match from the database. Code:
Is asp.net similar to vb.net ? What can you create with it ? ,Is there a program you suggest me to use , or even a compiler ?
View Replies View RelatedI need to know where I can get information about learning how to code in ASP. This getting cide snippets and such doesn't work out real well if you don't know what to configure. Also I would like to have my own work not someone elses.
View Replies View RelatedIn different examples I've seen different ways to do the same thing, and I want to know what is best (fastest, easiest to remember, same command for all types of stuff, etc)
For example, to get data from a database, should I use:
[VBS]set rs = conn.execute sqlstmt[/VBS]
or
[VBS]rs.Open sqlstmt, conn[/VBS]
or something else?
what can i use to get my server's ASP information, like with PHP you can use:
PHP Code:
<? phpinfo(); ?>
What can i use in ASP?
I have a form that I use a few option selections from DB table and a insert script at the end.I'd like to have access to aditional info from the same table after choose an option
View Replies View RelatedI am trying to retrieve data from a dropdown listbox in asp using:
<%Response.Write + Request.Form("cboBox")%>
The problem is that I only retrieve the first value of the option. For
example, if my first option was <option value=this that>, I only can
retrieve "this". It won't get the second word.
Recently, I came across a site with information to my area of knowledge. The pages have been designed and consist of the .asp extension in the url.
I'm not able to select the text on the web page, either click right mouse button or anything to copy the information. when I'm trying to print it is not perfect.
So, I would like to know from ASP guru's whether there is any way of saving the information on the web pages, so that the same can be formatted in a word document for printing purpose.
My web site is windows authenticated.
When someone connect to my site, I get his SID with a small active X object
which uses OpenProcessToken and GetTokenInformation (token user etc ...
But now, I also need the SID list from AD user object SIDHistory. (when a
user is moved across domain).
I've got a WYSIWYG editor, that runs off a template page (i.e. template.htm) that gets opened in an iFrame for editing.
How can I get it setup so I cange the template at the click of a button? I've tried doing a form with radio buttons, but can't get it to work.
For example, the iframe source has been set to "strTemplate". My form processing was along the lines of:
<%
If request.form "template" = "template1" then
strTemplate = "template1.htm"
Else
strTemplate = "template.htm"
If request.form "template" = "template2" then
strTemplate = "template2.htm"
Else
strTemplate = "template.htm"
End If
End If
%>
Anyone have anything like this? I don't care what data it is... I just want
to see how to query the AD and place the data into a web page.
Basically I want to be able to send users (if they sign up to it) an SMS alert whenever someone leaves them a message on a webpage. Similar to Hotmail where you can get an SMS when you receive an email, or Ebay where you can get alerts if you are outbid.
I'm thinking maybe something very similar to CDO in terms of coding Code:
im running an asp page where by i can upload a xls file- which adds data to a database provided it passed validation. this then sends a success message to the user. what i need is a button where i can call the data which was recently added into the database- but dont know how to go about it or code.
View Replies View RelatedI am using :
<% FOR EACH field IN size_info.FIELDS
Response.write("<option value=''>" & replace(field.name, "asize", "") & "</option>")
NEXT%>
to loop the names of the fields in a DB, but I cannot get it so that is the value of the data in that field is lower than 5 it simply doesn't show, i thought i might be this
<% FOR EACH field IN size_info.FIELDS
if size_info.fields.name.value > 0 then
Response.write("<option value=''>" & replace(field.name, "asize", "") & "</option>")
end if
NEXT%>
but that doesn't work.
Is this the right forum for this. Considering using this but not sure, specially considering the price and I would need to add a host. If you have any knowledge please let me know. Also if this the right forum, also let me know and I will give more details. It is an ASP program of course.
View Replies View RelatedCurrently I have one asp page which opens after the proper ID entered by user and it generate <A> tag with application software download link. When the user click on the link (which is pointed to the actual physical file.EXE of Size around 10 - 20 MB) it downloads file. But how do i change the logic so that the activity will get LOG in some text file. Like which user has downloaded which file. (it should log into text file).
I think I need to remove the <A> for direct download instead it shoudl call an asp page whcih should log the event and push the file to user.suggest with sample code if possible.
How can I get ASP and IIS version info?
View Replies View RelatedWhen you hover over one of the topic in this forum a box appear with the first few lines of the message in it. How is this created. What events area used to creat something similar and does anyone know of any good website where i can look at a tutorial for it.
I dont even know what they are called so dont know what to search for even on the web as if i write pop up i get something else which i dont think is what i really want to use, or maybe it is.
I am working on a users system for my site. I have the databases and most of the pages set up. But, I need to create a page called "My Info". This page would display only the information of the person that is logged in.
I am curious as to how I would retrieve only one entry in an access database and display it based on the person logged in.
anyone know how to update the inforation in a select box without refreshing the page or using massive javascript arrays using regular asp(not .net)?
