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 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")
i get the querysting like this: www.abc.com?email=abc@abc.com phone=33333333 Now i want to split this string so that i can just pass the phone number to the variable in my program so that the fax gets going.
Can you please let me know how i can split this string and just get the phone number to be passed to the variable ,so that i can initialte the next function of send fax?
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?
i have a search form that will only search the whole string when searching a query. i would like to have the search string split into separate words so that each word could be used as part of a single query. is there a simple solution to my question ?
City - name of city RentLow - low range of rent RentHigh - high range of rent myquery - keywords
The following is the start of my query string but I am having issues with the City portion already and I have not gotten to the rent yet
I know the SQLquery portion right below is fine - it tested perfectly, along with the rest of the query, it was when I added in the request city string that gives me No value given for one or more required parameters. even though one is passed in the string.
SQLquery = "(" &parsethis(strText ,words ,wCount, 3) & ")" SQLquery = Replace(SQLquery, "<FIELD1>", "title") SQLquery = Replace(SQLquery, "<FIELD2>", "description") SQLquery = Replace(SQLquery, "<FIELD3>", "comments") SQLstr = "SELECT * FROM links WHERE " & SQLquery & " AND city = " & Request.QueryString("city") & " AND linktype = 2 AND active = " & myTrue & " " & SortSQL & ";" end if
I have a page that is not asp that is linking to an asp page with a question mark and a variable on the end of the URL. How can I pull the variable off using server side processing only?I have tried using ServerVariable("HTTP_REFERER") no good, I tried ServerVariable("URL") no good. I am also using Instr(var,"?") to search the url string like this.
Test1 is always a 0 because Red1 is always just the refering URL and I need the whole string in address field. I think that I am using the wrong property but I am not sure what is the right property.
I am having some trouble with getting reliable results with a search string I am using in an ASP page that uses embedded SQL.
In the ASP page, I am using checkboxes for the user to select states to search for records that apply to the selected states. Let's say that I checked the states of [GA][VA][TN]. And, let's say that there is a record with a column "states" which has the states of "AL,GA,FL,VA,TN".
The search criteria I use above will not return that record. However, If I use a search criteria that satifies the leading value of "states" or the trailing value of "states" the result will be returned. But since my search criteria 'breaks apart' the actual value of "states", it is not returned in the search. Why, and how can I make this work better?
I am creating a search page and need help writing the code to build the sql string.
I have 3 fields on the main page which a user can choose to enter search terms in any of the 3 fields. My question is how do I write the logic so it only includes the fields in the search criteria where the user has entered anything.
Fields are
Production No Production Title Synopsis
The user may enter any, all or some of the search teams in the fields.
On the search page I am using lots of if conditions to build my sql string like
strSQL = "Select * from Productions where "
now after where there are lots of permutations and combination like production no could be empty or it could be filled in and the other fields might be empty or filled in as well.
Does someone has a simple logic to build the correct sql String?
I'm trying to split my search string, So I can compare search results if the string was of two words such as: "world news"... But i'm a bit confused of how to do it using this code (FOR EXAMPLE): ....
I'm trying to use the Microsoft Search to search for a text string in a folder full of a bunch of ASP files. Seems like the normal "Search for text in files" program in XP Pro won't search between the ASP delimiters <% %> .
How can I search for text strings in ASP a folder full of ASP files with out opening each one individually and searching?
In a HTML form field, the user enters a long text. I need to search for an image tag. Then get the name of the image (*.gif or *.jpeg) to check the image library if the image already exists. If exists, cannot upload the image. Else, upload the image.
This is probably simple and I'll kick myself when I see the answer, but I am trying to write a simple if statement that will check to see if a string value is contained within a list of string values. In SQL this is a simple matter with syntax like WHERE status IN ('PT', 'PD', 'PDC', 'DIP', 'TIP') I basically want to do the same thing in my ASP page.
I know I can use code like the following and am doing so now. I'm just looking for a more simple method. Code:
I want to search a string of HTML and insert a querystring into any url where the url is an asp page and is either a local link /folder/page.asp or of a specific domain http://www.somedomain.com/folder/page.asp. It needs to be able to handle plain links and those with querystrings already in there.
I could do it with instr functions etc but I thought this might a good time to brush up on regular expressions. Can anyone point me in the right dirction?
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:
i need to write a query that splits forname and surname that are held in the same col of a db eg old form requested for name(so users just put sarah smith) but I have added another col forname in the db and the forms now collect forname and surnane into seperate field but I have to now split the old data and put ot into the separate fields can anyone point me in the right direction.
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';
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.
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?
