Sending A File Using ASP - Is This Efficient?
I have a guy asking me about the speed of downloads from his web site. I use
ASP code to send the download to the user, and the code I use is basically
like this:
FileName = Request.Form("FileName")
Path = Server.MapPath(FileName)
Set Upload = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Upload")
Upload.SendBinary Path
Set Upload = Nothing
Is there anything that can be done to make this more efficient and to send
the file faster?

I am currently putting together an eCommerce site. I have almost everything
in place, but I am not happy with the category system for our products.
There are around 2500 products in a SQL Sever db, each assigned 1 of 300 odd
categories. Currently, I have statically built the category tree but wish to
automate this task as it is becoming increasingly difficult to manage.
I have googled plenty of info, specifically for ADO data shaping. Is this
the right route to take, especially considering each branch of the category
tree may differ in depth of categories? How exactly do other eCommerce sites
automate this task?
I would also want to be able to copy the category system that provides links
to previously selected categories i.e.
Category 1 > Sub Category 2 > Sub Category 3 > etc etc
Is this possible with the SHAPE command? Are there other methods of
performing this task?
I am particularly concerned about the database taking a major performance
hit from all of these SHAPE queries, which would be required on every
category page. Could I use a stored procedure, and how much would it improve
performance? Considering I will be hosting on a shared server, I want to
make this as efficient as possible.

I am working on a project that involves importing IIS Log files into a SQL
Server database (and these logfiles are big --> Some up to 2GB in size).
Up until now I thought that DTS or the BULK INSERT command was the fastest
method out there, but still proves to be long (taking an average of 45mns to
an hour to process each log file).
Because I have to import the log files from three web heads in my cluster
(therefore 2GB log files per server times three servers), this really throws
off the concept of "real time" or near "real time" reporting.
So that begs the question. WHAT IS THE MOST EFFICIENT, AND QUICKEST
TEXT-FILE TO SQL SERVER IMPORTING TOOL, METHODOLOGY, SAMPLE CODE, WHATEVER,
OUT THERE??? Code:

i have to do a lot of searching for records in a script that i have, and i was curious whether its better to:
a) open a recordset once, then use recordset.find for each record i want to find, then close the database
or
b) open a recordset, find one record, close the recordset, open a recordset, finda second record, close the recordset, and so on

i have an ASP (iis v5.0) application that generates a pdf file and this file
is saved to the server. it is saved in a location not available to web
users. i have an asp script (below) that sends the pdf file to the user as a
binary stream. So that the user specifies which file to upload, the script
performs some security checking and if it passes, it sends the pdf document.
This works great in HTTP, but i want to do this using SSL. When i try the
same thing over SSL, it gives me a 'File Download' dialog box with Open,
Save, Cancel, More Info. The file name is the name of my script and file
type is 'Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX'.
When i click Save or Open i get an error message: Internet Explorer cannot
download [scriptname] IE was not able to open this Internet site. The
requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again
later.
The key to all this is that the report can change and i need to make sure
the data doesn't get cached along the way. Hence there are a bunch of header
manipulation commands included in the send function. Code:

I'm trying to get an ASP to return a zip file to the remote browser from an
Image (BLOB) field in SQL Server 2000 but Internet Explorer keeps saying:
Cannot open C:Documents and SettingsFrostillicusLocal SettingsTemporary
Internet FilesContent.IE5U7GXENGFfile[1].zip
The URL to open the zip file is like this: doc_view.asp?id=1&ver=2
....where id and ver represent the zip file's version in the database. The
code I've pieced together to return the zip file is as follows (note: this
code works fine for PDF, JPG, DOC, XLS, GIF, and all sorts of files - just
not zip - HOWEVER, if I click "save" instead of "open" in the download box
then open the zip file manually, it works fine - Internet Explorer just
won't load WinZip for me automatically) Code:

I've used the search tool and found several pages regarding sending faxes under ASP, but they all seem to suggest using some internet faxing service.
I don't know if this is possible, and it probably isn't under XP without additional software. (Small company, simple intranet site built on IIS.) I have a PDF form for an agreement for our customers.
Now, I already have a page setup where our reps simply input the customer's email address and it will send the form as an attachment. What I would like to do is make another page where the rep just puts in the customers phone number and it will fax the same pdf to the provided number. Is that possible through ASP on XP?
I've been looking around for some solution and I found this:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/303647 for W2K.

I have a few queries regarding on email. Currently my web hosting provider uses Windows 2003 Server IIS 6.0 to host my ASP websites. In my own PC, I am also currently using Win XP Profession IIS 6.0 to run my ASP files.
I would like to create a pogram that would automatically sent out an email. But the problem is I have know that CDONTS do not work for Windows 2003 Server or XP Professional. It only currently work for Win 2000 Server.
Please help and perhaps show me the code of sending an email out automatically. Is there a code that can work for all servers?

I have a form which will be processed by being sent to an ASP page. I would
like the ASP page to take the data from the Request.QueryString (which I
know how to do) and format it so I can have it emailed to me in a nicer
format. My problem is that I do not know how to have ASP send an email. I
know how to send an email using the mailto: protocol by making it look
something like the following:
MAILTO:username@mydomain.com?SUBJECT=mysubject?MES SAGE=mymessage
However, this will usually take the user to their default email client and
ask them to send an email by putting the specified subject and message in
for them, but wait for them to do any desired editing and click their send
button. I simply want the email to be sent straight from ASP. Is this
possible?

I need to send a URL from a form to another .asp page through the querystring. I can't use request.form because I am uploading images at the same time and it isn't working. It seems to only work when I do Request.Querystring.
So is there a way to do that, I keep getting errors whenever I try I think because the URL has characters in it that messes it up.
like:
http://www.domain.com/today?today=321%321
But something like this works fine:
http://www.domain.com/today/
