I am trying to print a file from an ASP script but haven't been able
to find any way of making this happen.
I have an EPL (Eltron Thermal Printer language) file that is being
generated from the script and I want a way to print this file. An EPL
file is basically printed the same way as a postscript PRN would be
printed. From a command prompt I can type:
copy label.EPL LPT1
and get the thing printed. I want to be able to do this same thing
within ASP.
I have tried creating a batch file and calling that from ASP using the
code at http://www.aspfaq.com/show.asp?id=2059 but that didn't seem to
work. I did give permissions to CMD and Command but it's still not
working. Is that because "copy" is part of Command? I also tried
DynuExec but that didn't do the trick either.
Is there any way to copy a file to LPT1 from within an ASP script at
all? How about JavaScript? I'm ok with any kind of creative
solutions...it doesn't have to be elegant since this will only be used
as an internal application.
I would like to print to a printer connected to my IIS server. I mean "I DONT WANT TO PRINT ON EVERY PRINTER IN THE WORLD". (many answers are thinking javascript printing to the user side) I just want to print on the server side only for me (in ASP of course) Another thing to consider is that i use a local printer that generate PDF (Acrobat Distiller driver + ghostscript + redmon port redirector ). My server side printer name is "PDFPrinter" and its port is "RPT1:" I tried with FileSystemObject.CreateTextFile("RPT1:",True) but don't work.I saw many examples with: .......set objPrinter =CreateTextFile("LPT1:",True) so .... I also tried with Wscript.NetWork class but no sucess
I need to print to the IIS server's local printer. I have written a basic e-commerce site, and when a customer places an order, I would like to print the details directly to the server's printer so it can be actioned. I'm using Windopws 2000 / IIS 5 and "classic" ASP.
I am looking for the easy way to print from a web client in the printer that is in the IIs server in LPT1.
No problem about rights, the server is an intranet one. Please, tell me some about, I have been looking around but some scripts I found did not work, or I do not know how to make them work.

We have a server side application that should be able to print to network printers. The problem: How can I setup printers for the IUSR_SRV-... account in a way that I can use them from a .NET webservice?
is it possible to open an excel file (used as a template) from server using server-side vbscript; then modify it or add values from client using client-side vbscript?
Following is a vbscript code extract triggered by a combobox OnChange event. arrVendorA and arrdefpack are server side arrays and i need the intCounter parameter to be the array index. Code:
<script> sub getstdPackByVendor(strPartNo, intCounter) dim selVendor selvendor= colSelect("cboVendor", intCounter).value
if selvendor= "<%=arrvendorA(intCounter)%>" then if "<%=arrdefpack(intCounter)%>" = 2 then colTD("txtStdPack" & intcounter+1 ).innertext = cstr("<%=arrVAStdPAckL2(intCounter)%>") end if end if end sub </script>
The following code is giving me a type mismatch error at the 'if' statements... any ideas, anyone ?
sub getstdPackByVendor(strPartNo, intCounter) dim selVendor selvendor= colSelect("cboVendor", intCounter).value
if selvendor= "<%=arrvendorA(" & intCounter & ")%>" then if "<%=arrdefpack(" & intCounter & ")%>" = 2 then colTD("txtStdPack" & intcounter+1 ).innertext = cstr("<%=arrVAStdPAckL2(" & intCounter & ")%>") end if end if end sub
How do I go about calling a server-side vbscript within a client-side javascript function? What I have is a page heavy on the javascript that has a number of functions, one of which is to begin a visual countdown with an onclick and also open an asp page containing the server-side vbscript, which initiates a wake-on-lan call. I had no idea how to call the vbscript within the javascript function, so this is why I opted for the vbscript asp page "pop-up" via window.open. Code:
I check to see if a certain submission button is asking for removal. If the removal is true, I update a recordset's delete column. This has been tested and it works. However, now I'd like to prompt the user to make sure that he/she wants to remove the record. Here's the code: ....
I have a Client Side Java Script which is supposed to re-load the options on my serverside ASP form.
I have been trying to get the syntax right to assign the Select box on the ASP form to a variable in my JavaScript so I can update the options. Can anyone either tell me if this is not possible or what the syntax should be. Here is some information.
Form Name = AddProdForm Select Box name = subprodline JavaScript Variable = form1
Here is one of the many versions of this line I have tried.

I am starting to build quite a few pages that will have tables of data from an SQL database.
I have been building the table rows on the server side in VBScript, but I have been thinking about having the VBScript code just build array variables in the <head> section (or as local variables), and then have JavaScript functions on the client side actually populate the tables when the page loads.
I do plan to do other things like being able to sort the tables in JavaScript code on the client, limit the tables height and be able to scroll the rows, and click on a row in the table, and have the values populate a form. I will also need to be able to export/download/? some tables into Excel.
I am doing login page . (login.asp)As usual it has username , password textbox and a login button .i need to do client side validation for mandatory fields and I need to do server side validations to check for the hardcoded username and password .if it matches i have to redirect to another page(content.asp)
im trying to use the following code to log whenever a user clicks through this particlular message box - however, this currently logs regardless of whether or not the message box was clicked - im assuming this is because the server-side code can't see the client side if condition. but how can i set the varMsgBox variable as a server-side variable? Code:
On this page I've a button and an iframe. When I press that button, on click event has: document.getElementById("iframeID").src="mypage.asp?test=xpt" .
On mypage.asp I've
test=request.queryString("test"); response.write test response.end()
I'm developing an ASP app and trying to make it XHTML strict. This requires the removal of all "name" attributes from form elements. Can form elements be read server-side in ASP with only an "id" attribute?
im completely new to server-side scripting, but im an experienced actionscripter in flash, but i want to learn server-side scripting as well, but i dont know where to begin, any advice on where to start?
I have inherited a set of asp pages that I now need to augment. In order to minimize changes to production code, I would like to make a "call" to an asp page from a new asp page. Existing code is using many Request.Form variables, and I would very much prefer not to change this code.
The new page will retrieve data that I would like to fill into Request.Form variables that are used in the old code. So, is it possible for me to set Request.Form variables from within an asp page and then fire off a second page that uses those variables as well as any Request.Form variables that were passed to the original page. Additionaly, it should all occur on the server, and the client would only get a response after all on the server is complete.
i have an asp page and id like to run some DOS commands to copy files around on the server to a new directory on the server, and then run an exe afterwards. some sites tell me its as simple as Code:
I have page which uses two server includes. The first displays a random banner advert. The second displays a form containing dropdown boxes populated from a database.
The includes work seperately but when I include them together I am getting an error. The includes share the same database but use different tables.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing the conflict between the two includes?
I would like to achieve the equivalent of META REFRESH but without the HTML meta refresh and without JavaScript. In other words, on server side I would like to wait some seconds, then redirect the page. Is there any way to do this?

I want to do some time based house cleaning chores on a server based on server time/date. I know how to do it based on a call from the client using asp, but is it possible to have a program residing on the server that comes alive based on server time (not a client call) and does it's tasks such as delete an inactive page, or more importantly, send out a cdonts e-mail to a client list? I should also mention that this is a shared Windows 2003 Server (Interland Blue Halo).
The book I am referring to learn ASP states the following about server- side includes:
============================================== The code in a server-side include file is inserted into the pages that use it BEFORE the page's ASP code is evaluated. This means that you can put ASP code inside the include file, and it will be executed like it was part of the page that includes it. On the other hand, it means that you cannot use ASP to determine which page to include. ==============================================
But as opposed to the last line in the above para, the following code makes use of ASP to determine which page to include: Code:
I've been pulling my hair out with javScript to no avail, so I just want to do this through some simple server-side form validation of a radio button. All I want to do is check that the radio is selected.Code:

I have a sub wich is filling a combobox by a query from the database and with response write. If there is only one result then that option is selected like: Code:
Sub FillComboOperation( ...) ..... If objResults.Count = 1 and UCase(Required) = "TRUE" Then Response.Write "<option value=""" & objResult.Fields(OptionValue).Value & """ selected>" & objResult.Fields(OptionText).Value & "</option>" & vbCrLf Else .........
I am troubleshooting a web site (not written by me) and may of the pages use server side includes. This one page includes a page that return includes the page the included it.
The site is quite slow and when I first found this I thought that this was the primary cause of it. Then I thought this page shouldn't work at all because it would create an infinite loop and should just recursively call the pages and eventually consumme all server resources and database connections.
However it doesn't appear to act that way and the page does display and there is no endless calls to the SQL statements in the two pages. Is there something that prevents recursive calling when using SSIs?
