As in I want to have a directory with 25 or so images and want to randomly select an image without having to change the txt document when I add new images.

What my boss want's to do is have a repository of questions. Have some questions coded so they are always asked, and the remainder of the test come from randomly selected questions.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to pull random rows from a table and make sure that that they haven't already been selected.
I have a tough question that i ca't get over it for all the day.
I have two different news tables. I can't get any of them and list.
Bu i want to do something different. I want to get both and randomize them and list them.
for example,
1. news (from the 1st db)
2. news (from the 2nd db)
etc.
is that possible, because i couln't find any solution for this.
The following code should select the specified number of records randomly from the database .....
View Replies View RelatedHowever, what I want to do is include a request.querystring("ID"), so that IF an ID is defined, eg ID=3, , it will display the relevant (not random) information. I've tried this every way I can think and get type mismatches, etc etc. It's probably really simple but I can't see it.

I am trying to retrieve images from the database and display them in a random order. The order of the images is supposed to change each time page is refreshed. Below is my code, I am using an array to store the images but the images are not displayed for some reason. Code:
View Replies View RelatedI come from a PHP background. I'm modifying a client site that uses some critical ASP code in the backend, so for simple frontend stuff I need to use it too!
I need to make sure that certain images from a random rotation only appear on certain sections of the site licensing issues. Is there any way to easily grab the name of the file that's currently loaded? I want to run some form of regex on it to check for certain words.
I have a bit of a problem.
Basically I have a homepage, when the page loads up it will display images.
However, the images are dived into three groups, as seen below.
Group1 - Image1, Image2, Image3
Group2 - Image4, Image5, Image6
Group3 - Image7, Image8, Image9
What I want is that every time when someone enters the front page, it should pick a group and display that particular set of images on the homepage.
I'm trying to have my program randomly select one of five images. I think my syntax is correct (that is it isn't giving my any error messages and the page loads with the image being replaced by a broken link 'X' box), but I don't know how to display the image to the screen.
Should the response.redirect part automatically display it to the screen or should I have it in some tag like <td><img scr ="lrandom"></td> within my table?
<% dim array(5)
randomize
array(1)="img1.gif"
array(2)="img2.gif"
array(3)="img3.gif"
array(4)="img4.gif"
array(5)="img5.gif"
upperbound=ubound(array)
lowerbound=0
lrandom = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * rnd + lowerbound)
response.redirect "images/" & (Array(lrandom))
%>

I have a database of images with captions that I need to display at random on an ASP page. Once I have pulled out my recordset, what's the best way to select on item at random from the recordset to display? Also, at first I might have only 5 items in my recordset, how can I avoid the same item repeating 3 times in a row if the person clicks refresh?
View Replies View RelatedI just wanted to know whats the best way to generate 50 or say X amount of number at random without having to repeat any of the previous number...
so far I've the following:
[VBS]<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<%
function RandomNumber()
dim theRandom
Randomize
'RandomNumber = Int((upperbound - lowerbound + 1) * Rnd + lowerbound)
theRandom= Int((99 - (0) + 1) * Rnd + (0))
if (theRandom<10) then theRandom = "0" & theRandom
RandomNumber = theRandom
end function
%>[/VBS]
and then I've this in the body of HTML doc: Code:
We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
I am trying to generate a random number. I am using randomize and then rnd to return a decimal number between 100 and 120. This will give me a longitude. I am doing something similar to generate a latitude.
I created this on a page which refreshs every minute. I put these points into a map and they are showing up in groups of straight lines. Since rnd is time based will refreshing every 60 seconds return similar numbers?
My page have background image,on that image have more images and text. My problem is whenever resize browser that images are not resized and also not moved correct place .(i.e look not like before alignment).I want to do everything in dyanamic....

I have a list box which has the following values:
Car
bike and Boat
If I select "car" it is fine but when I select "bike and boat" it just takes bike
as the selection. It is taking the space as the end of the string. Is there a way I can
rectify this?
My boss wanted me to add a dropdown to this form. I was able to add in the dropdown and it inserts into my database (Access) just fine. However, I have an edit page also and this is where my trouble comes in.
On the edit page, the dropdown does not "know" which specific option was selected. I tried to write an If statement but I think there is something wrong in my syntax. Code:

I am familiar with classic asp pages, not asp.net. I am also familiar MS Interdev (but am unable to locate my copy and cannot find a torrent file - is this an archaic program now?). The last thing that I'll mentioned is that I prefer to have a debugging capabilities.So the current website uses Dreamweaver 8.0, IIS 6.0, and MSSQL 2000.

I created a form for Deleting multiple records (from Access db )using checkboxes. However, I would like to add a link or button that would check mark all the checkboxes since I could have hundreds of records.

I was wondering if anyone has a moment to look over some code I've written?
I'm involved in the maintenance of an old CMS system I wrote a number of years ago, when I was regularly coding in ASP. These days it takes a while to mobilise the grey matter when it comes to ASP.
Anyhow, basically I am trying to select a specific node and determine the id of the last child of the parent node.
At the moment, I am only returning the first childs id, despite my best efforts. Code:
On the online crm system i've built (using ASP) our customers can create a list of contacts and download/delete/add to this list when they want to and then go and view the list. It will display 20 on a page with forward/back buttons etc.
I have written a routine which queries the MS SQL 2000 database and retrieves all the IDs of the contacts. It will then work out the page it is on and display the appropriate records by reading through the 20 IDs for that page and query the data from each ID it needs to display on the screen.
This works fine for lists of up to 1000-2000 but when it gets to 5000, 10000 records it becomes an issue of performance as it will hold in a variable all of those 5000 or 10000 IDs. There has to be another way of doing this.
I want to select just one field to display using sql and I want to have another variable that counts how many fields of the same value there are. My code looks something like this but i'm getting an error...

Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal. Code:
This is my page that displays a certain players games played below. It sorts by games played and excludes all records that = 0. Now with 9 different grades to show i did not want 9 different pages, so i added in 'strSortGames' so that they can select which grade to view and only one page is needed.
I used a menu (list field) on a previous page to do this, do you no a better way to do this? e.g Text links or some other way? or is a list field a fairly good way? Code:
What query would I have to use to select entries from a database where there first letter is a letter of the alphabet? ie. Select all entries starting with an A etc.
View Replies View RelatedI need help programming a search function. I want to narrow down a search function regarding time. I figure the best way to do this is to select a higher interval and a lower interval, and then have an sql function that grabs the times from within that range.Code:

Set rscurrent = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
