When the moderator jmurrayhead reviewed my website he pointed me a good point that I never though would be a problem but could be. He said that turning off the browser's javascript my sign in form or other form that uses javascript won't work the way they should.
He advised to ensure I validate everything server-side instead. My queastion is how can I validate an email address on the server-side? Do I have to uses javascript too?
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)
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 am using javascript and server side validation. This is a scenario for if someone has javascript turned off and the server side validation comes into play. I have a form which submits to a hidden page which retrieves the data and the submits it to a db. When the data is posted, I am doing server validation checks before submitting to the db ie. if str = "" or str = "" then print this page saying 'please complete all fields'. Now the user has to user their back browser button to get back to the form. The problem is that sometimes the values they entered into the form are there and sometimes they aren't. How can I ensure that the values they entered are still in the form?
Can someone please explain to me what server side validation is and how this works, also where do you put this, and in which programming language do you write this. Some examples are also welkom.I've never used this but I want to learn how.
I'd like to see if there is any guidance in the form of sample code or a tutorial for server-side validation. Specifically for the thing I am trying to do, if a user types too many letters into Textarea, then they see an error on the screen. I was able to catch most occurrences of this error with client-side javascript.
However, I'd like to handle it server-side in order to catch those cases that get by the javascript for whatever reason. If I could just catch the error before it gets displayed, then display a warning in red letters in a pretty format, then that's all I'm hoping to do.
I went to ASPFAQ.com, didn't find anything there. I also did a search of this forum and didn't see anything. I know conceptually what I want to do, but I am not sure how to go about it.
I have an asp website..the validation is done in javascript..now is there any ossibility that, if javascript is not supported by a particular browser or if the javascript is disabled, the server-side validation(VBscript) automatically fires.
I wrote a sever side form valiation script that loops through the form elements building a string in the process. If you submit the form without filling in any fields you will get the error message in read at form's top. Look how the fields in the error message are completely out of order. Why is this? Code:
Can anybody point me to a good tutorial/manual on advanced server-side form validation including validation of fields against unwanted strings such as the use of "http://".
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.

This would be the longest project I have worked on, but I'm trying to use client side validation on a form that collects a users information. The problem I have is how do you validate a field when processing the form and if a field say is EMPTY, then error message and the users needs to enter some data.
I know that I can say POST="validate.asp" or something, however I have this page going from one form page to another and I can't get my head around being able to validate the field on the page before processing the form and moving to page 2 form, and so on.
Is there away to have the validation on the first page and somehow once validated move to page 2 form?
I have created a new site, using asp.net c#. My pages contain client side validation to validate the users input. On my local machine this works fine, but when I moved my site to the test server, the validation don't want to execute. If I view source on the page I can see the java script is created, but it don't execute.
I'm browsing to the site in IE, so it is not a browser problem and the validtation works on other sites on the same server.
Everytime i submit, it does no validation checks and just submits the form as normal and i cannot work out why. Does someone know where i am going wrong.
I just spent days on a clients website incorporating Server side validation where before I only relied on client side javascript. I was getting hit with injection attacks or so I believe.
What is happening now is that on one particular form is getting submitted completely blank when in fact it shouldn't be. Code:
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've got a form that is activated by an external .asp page. I've finally got the validation of the form working, the javascript alert pops-up and correctly identifies the mistakes, but when I click OK on the js pop-up, the form submits and I get a data mismatch error.
I can't seem to figure out how to get the form to wait for the right data... Code:
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:
