I would like to know if there is alterntiave to using Select Case?I have over 80 files that a user can select from a drop down list and 'read'. Rather than writing out 80+ lines with INC files, what is the other less code option?
View RepliesIn VB there is a command that can be used to convert a string into proper case, e.g...
msgbox StrConv("HELLO", 3)
Would say "Hello". However, there is no such function in ASP (it seems to be one of the few commands that was not exported into VBS....god I miss DoEvents too....used to abuse that command.....lol).
Anyway, do you guys know any methods that can be used to do the same thing? Basically I have a name all in CAPS, and I want it to be converted into Proper case so that it's easier on my visitor's eyes when they see it.
Code like this
=======================
Select case q
Case "a"
Dim arr(5)
Case "b"
Dim arr(2)
end select
=====================
returns an error saying variable arr redefined.
Should it be like that or an I using Select incorrectly? Perhaps something
similar to break needs to be used?
My users have to select an value from a fixed selection of values. The
obvious choice of control for such a requirement is to use a <select> (i.e.
a combo box).
My problem is that sometimes, these combo boxes will have a *large* number
of values. There could be any number of values in them from 5 to 5 million
(unlikely it would be this large but possible).
Obviously 5 million is far too much to populate a <select> control with.
Does anyone have any suggestion as to how a user could select a value from a
*potentially* very large selection of values (i.e a suitable alternative to
the <select> control)?
I was trying to colorize my Events from my eventtable.
Past = Grey
Today = Yellow
Future = Blue
Now my question:
How can i specify a statement not when its EQUAL to a number but greater or less than zero for example
I tried this thing and some else but it didn't really work...
color="#6464ce"
Case Else
color="black"
End Select
Probably its a simple solution and don't see the forest because there are so many trees
I am having a hard time understanding how to use a SELECT CASE in ASP. I
have used it in VB but never in ASP scripting.
Scenerio:
I have 2 textboxes on a form that I have to allow entry to one or the other
or Both at the same time. Now I tried to use an If ElseIf but it got too
hard to track, so now I am using a SELECT CASE Statement.
TEXBOX1 named strEnglish
TEXBOX2 named strFrench
My code:
<%
strEnglish=Request.Form("strEnglish")
strFrench=Request.Form("strFrench")
Select Case
Then I have no idea how to go from here, because I have 2 input textboxes to
follow. Code:
"Stock Value" Could be anything from 0 to a million or so, and might include a decimal (12345.67) . I can't find how to do this:
Select Case StockValue
Case 0 To 30000
response.Write("Less than 30000")
Case 30000 To 80000
response.Write("30000 to 80000")
Case 80000 To 180000
response.Write("80000 to 180000")
Case Else ' > 180000
response.Write("Greater than 180000")
End Select
I also tried Case > 0 And <30000 .... and so on
how to write this select script please?
Using keyword "To" in select case giving error.The following code is got from www.microsrosoft.com itself. What is the wrong with this?.
<%
Dim Number1
Number1 = 7 ' Initialize variable.
Select Case Number1 ' Evaluate Number1.
Case 1 To 5 ' Number1 between 1 and 5, inclusive.
Response.Write( "Between 1 and 5" )
' The following is the only Case clause that evaluates to True.
Case 6, 7, 8 ' Number1 between 6 and 8.
Response.Write( "Between 6 and 8")
Case 9 To 10 ' Number1 is 9 or 10.
Response.Write( "Greater than 8")
Case Else ' Other values.
Response.Write( "Not between 1 and 10")
End Select
%>
Code:
Function SetAvgClass(val)
If NOT isnull(val) Then
Select Case cint(val)
Case (val < 100)
SetAvgClass = "belowexpected"
Case (val > 100)
SetAvgClass = "aboveexpected"
Case 100
SetAvgClass = "expected"
End Select
Else
SetAvgClass = "belowexpected"
End If
End Function
The only case that seems to be working correctly is thw case 100. am i using incorrect syntax for the > and < statements?

instead of the usual method:

i have read a few articles saying that you can run IIS on XP home but it does not look too reliable to me and am not too willing to try, so is there an alternative set-up i can use to test my ASP before uploading?
i say this as all ftp hosts seem to want your code pre-tested before uploading .
Looking for a way to switch between submit buttons. The default will be "start" and when the tech clicks on that, the button will start a timer, which I have already set.
The button then will switch to "stop" and when a tech has completed a job and clicks "stop" the timer will also stop and switch the button back to start.
I know how to track the time for each tech that starts and stops a job. I need a jumpstart on how to switch onclicks for two buttons.
I would like to set up an ASP page that sends an e-mail, but the server I'm working on doesn't have CDONTS installed for security reasons. I don't have any control over the server. Are there any alternatives to using CDONTS that will work or a better option?

View Replies View RelatedI know this is not a core .asp issue, but I'll try anyway. I've used the TEXTAREA element for a while, but as you know it's limited when it comes to formating part of the text inside a TEXTAREA.Does anyone have expirience using other text cointainer objects (Java/ActiveX), which is easy to use and easy to read values from when sending a form to a procedure .asp page?

I'm using ASP and I need to generate a ZIP file that contains a list of files that I'm pulling from a database. I've determined WinZip's command line parameters so that I can use it, the problem is I'm unsure how to run WinZip on the server.
Set WshShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run("c:winzip.exe")
Assuming this would work, how do I get the process to terminate upon completion? I can't have 20-30 WinZip applications running on the server, I need it to handle what I send to it and then close. Maybe I'm taking the entirely wrong approach here.
