This ASP page is a page which has FAQ. Some of the FAQ have answers with line breaks.
Questions and answers are stored in the database
When I output the answer, it displays like one long line. Hence I have written a small function to render this answer with line breaks where ever there are line breaks in this db field.
My code for the function is: ...
I am about to show a text field from SQL7.0 database, but need to display x number of images spread out amongst the text!! Basically similar to how bbc.co.uk/news display news articles....
I am wondering the best way to do this...
I was considering splitting the text into variables and then to display these sections next to the images.
Anyone else done this?
I have a textfile that I'd like to put into an Array using VBS. The text file has over 6200 entries. Is it possible to put those entries into an array automatically using VBS? So far all the resources I've looked at show manual creation of the array.
View Replies View RelatedI have an Access DB with newsletter preferences in it. What I am trying to do is select small groups to send a custom newsletter out to. So my localhost criteria web page goes to the Access DB and pulls the email addresses that match my current criteria. I then write that list out to a file (newsletterlist.txt). Maybe that is my problem, but I wanted to do that so if my machine crashed while processing, I would know where to recover it. I had looked at arrays and dictionaries but dictionaries aren't good from what I found for hundreds of entries and arrays I can't keep track of..argh.
Anyways, I then wanted to loop through the file (newsletter.txt) find the next email address, with it I can query back to the DB and get preferences and assemble the email and out the custom newsletter goes.
I've seen where MS says deleting a line using the FileSystemObject is not possible, though wanted to see if anyone has found a work around.
Performance isn't that much of an issue for me, as I figured I'd set the thing to running and go to dinner! So anyone have suggestions - even if it means taking the text info to an array, somehow delete one of the addresses and then put it back to a file...anything that can one by one delete the addresses so I know that it all has worked as there would be no email addresses left in the file.
I am having a problem with getting my date to display in the format needed. The date is being called up from a database in the form of the date and time but I need to have the them both seperate from each other. Its for a message board app I'm currently developing. I've tried various methods but none have worked so far. I am using this code at the moment:
<%Response.Write FormatDateTime(sectionRS("MesDate"), vbGeneralDate)%>
The result comes out the same as if no formatting is used. Do I need to create a variable for the value being called up from the database?
I have a string that looks like this: a|b|c|d%e|f| ...
I split once on "%"
ar1 = Split(Mystring, "%")
then when I try and split the ar1 by
ar2 = Split(ar1, "|")
I get error '800a000d' Type mismatch
I have tried
ar2 = Split(Cstr(ar1), "|")
How can I split this string?
I have a var with the value of ADED I want to be able to break this var into an array of 4 elements, or it could be three, depending on the value of the variable.
I tried the following but got nothing.
Code:
dim strVar, arrVar
strVar = Request.QueryString("strVar")
arrVar(0) = Left(strVar, 1)
arrVar(1) = Mid(strVar, 2, 1)
arrVar(2) = Mid(strVar, 3, 1)
arrVar(3) = right(strVar, 1)
When I try to response.write(arrVar(2)), i get nothing. What am I doing wrong?

I have this SELECT box which allows users to select multiple items to delete... however if they select 2 or more items... the values get passed over as 'one, two' so the sql looks like Delete From Table Where Field='one, two';
How do i do it in such a way that it becomes:
Delete From Table Where Field='one';
Delete From Table Where Field='two';?
I have a variable that stores an amount of time in '00:00:00' format. It is a varchar in the database.
Is there a way to Split the value into hours, minutes, and seconds so I can add them?
I figure it would look something like
xx*60 + xx*60 + xx*3600? Or something like that?
Has anyone had the misfortune to try and split a querystring that has x duplicate name/value pairs within the querystring? I have tried every sort of combination to do this and it continues to just run through the whole querystring.
here is an example querystring
URL
The Address values, email values, title values are fine as they are named on the previous page. The problem is, the L1, L2, L3, L4, L5 etc are dynamically named from a db depending on what the user selects on a previous page and can be duplicated up to 6 times, depending on how many different locations they have. I am able to get all the values at once, but need to be able to split the duplicated name/value pairs as they at seperate locations.
so what i need to be able to do is
Location 1
L1 - 0
L2 - 1
L3 - 0
L4 - 0
L5 - 0
Location 2
L1 - 0
L2 - 2
L3 - 2
L4 - 0
L5 - 0
This is the code I have so far:
I take the email address and split at the "@" symbol. Then I split at the "." sign to get the firstname and lastname.
Most of the times, the email address is of the format:
FirstName.LastName@company.com
However at times, the email address can be just firstname@company.com
At such instances the code fails, how do I check for the instance of . before I split it again?
basically what i have done is taken a date and time, split them apart, took the date array split that into 3 times via the / seperator now im trying to split the day number into 2.
(i.e if the day is 12 for example i want to split it so i get both 1 and 2 seperate, or if the day is 08 i would want to get 0 and 8 seperate).
Is there a way to split a number without some sort of seperator so i can get the first and second number of the day and if possible how?
if i wanted to split the below SQL statement on two lines, what would the
syntax be....
SQL = "UPDATE gallery WHERE g_id = " & Request.Form("g_id") &
"SET g_name = " &
Request.Form("g_name") &
"g_add = " &
Request.Form("g_add") "
I've made my first ASP website that interacts with a detabase. All fairly standard: it can display the entire contents of the db, you can input new items, update and delete items, and I've just started making a search page...[!]
It all works fine if the user just searches with one word, but if they enter more than one word and then press search, I don't know how to split their searchstring up into [an array of?] different strings to search the db with.
Is this even the easiest way to do it, or am I just wasting my time?
I want to save a list of values in a cookie. I already use 1 key of the cookie to save the username. What I want to do is save a list of values as one string by using some kind of separator character.
There may be any number of these values including none. What is a good character to use to separate values? What commands do i use to split a string on the separator character into several strings?
I have two records pulled from the same field in a table, so it would look like this
NAMES (Field name)
John (forename)
Smith (surname) There will always be 2 records
I need to take both these records and split them into two variables - one for the forename and one for the surname - (I need to insert these values into SQL statement)
Have tried the following code 'firstname' contains both the first and second name.
Code:
I have an array I want to split. This is the code I am currently using:Code:
<%
dim aSelected
aSelected = split(request.form("option"),",")
for i = 0 to ubound(aSelected)
response.write (aSelected(i) & ("<br>"))
next
%>
This splits the array no problem. The problem I have is that the different variables (if thats the word to use?) the array is holding is sentences that contain commas in themselves. So the split is splitting my sentences. How can I split the variables at the end of the sentences. (some sentences have periods some don't so I can't use the ".").
I have a variable named DressCode. The content of this variable is something like N040602
I want to split this variable into four parts:
DressCodea would be the N part
DressCodeb would be the 04 part
DressCodec would be the 06 part
DressCoded would be the 02 part
How do you do this is ASP, so it'll split the variable, no matter what the content is, as long as it is that format (ie 1 letter then 6 numbers).
I am taking a field from a database and attaching it to avariable like so:
varID = rsCheckLogin("LogonID")
This is returning, for example, SA70.
I only need the integer part. How would i remove the SA part, i have belive it must be trim or split but not sure how to use them?
I have a very long string statement that needs spltting down into smaller sections and segments. I know how to use the split() function, and it splits the string down into smaller sections, however when I try and split one of these smaller sections into segments it throws an error out. Firstly is it possible to keep splitting the same string again and again to break it down? If not does anybody know how I would go about breaking down the string?

separate words so that each word could be used as part of a single

english and chinese characters(big5).

View Replies View RelatedI am creating for an MMORPG (Eve-Online) group a method of logging all ‘kills’ that they produce.
In game each player involved in a kill receives an ingame e-mail style notification as follows. I have set up a basic version whereby to log each mail a player just copys and pastes each bit of required data into individual form fields.
What I would like to set up is a system whereby they can just copy the entire mail into one form field and a script splits it up. I know this is possible as I have seen it on a competitor’s submission page (although they are using php).
I am using DW MX 2004 and using .asp VBscript pages connected by DSN (called dap) to an Access database (called killmail_Backup.mdb) I have an existing table called ‘killmail’ but I’ll probably create a new table for this. Code:
I dump the entire recordset into an array:
If not rs.EOF Then
aEmp = rs.GetRows()
Contents of the array are in this order:
EmpID,EmpName,Indent,Sub_ID,Lft,Rgt,MgrID, LastName
This query sort on the basis of Lft and Rgt columns.
The name of the array is: aEmp.
My question here is how can I get only the LastName from the aEmp array into another array so that I can sort the names alphabetically and then display the employees in the alphabetical order.
Or is there is another way I could this by using the same array while keeping the lft and rgt sort of the query? If I sort based at the SQL query level, I can see the names sorted by the lft, rgt and lastname, but since the lastname is at the end of the sort list - it does not appear alphabetically.
