Is there any way a Form can be made automatically not retain its field values after it has been succcessfully posted in classical ASP. Something like the way ASP.Net can perform state management in postbacks automatically.
I currently am using a script which submits full state names to a payment processor. However, the payment processor only accepts 2 digit state names. Does anyone have a premade code for asp that converts state names into 2 digit ones. Code:
It seems that I am assigning to the session rather than comparing against. I want to compare it in the first peice of code but it seems that I am assigning to it. When the user first requests the page they are not a member.Heres my code:
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then 'Do Nothing End if
'should still not be True
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then Response.write("IS TRUE") End If
'Response.write is working telling me that the first part of the code assigned to the session
how can i pass state for each user through pages without using session,cookies,hidden form fields,querystring or database, which knowledge base article 175167 refers? i don't want to build a form with hidden fields and get it posted on the client. it seems possible using server variables, response.addheader method, but how can i use it?
I hav developed web application using ASP.net 2.0 there are just 2 pages only. Both are works fine in visual studio. But same when i run on IIS 5.1 ....the page without session variable works fine.
But the page with...even the Sub() with session variable won't works.....even it automatically reaches the last sub of the program.
What are the changes i hav to do in IIS / application or web.config file.
I am learning asp.net using Zak Ruvalcaba's book from Sitepoint. When trying to do the example on application state from chapter 11, i get the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
we've just set up a subdomain,'demos' for one of our projects that normally works fine. on the login page, if the user enters the correct username/pw, we write session info and then response.redirect to the home page. this works for on the normal site, but session state info is dying on the demo subdomain.
i'm sure the session info is being written since i can see it when i response.write the value. also, the response.redirect uses a relative path, so it's not that we're accidentally changing domains.
We have an ASP site that uses a MySQL db backend. Usename/Password authentication is stored in db tables. We are currently using session variables as a means for validation when the user navigates to new pages. Generally speaking, all this does and has worked fine
The issue is with abandoned sessions. For instance..
Joe user clicks the [X] in the upper right hand container, closing out IE or firefox. IIS will not terminate the session for ~ 20minutes(default), leaving these resources unavaliable.
In our situation, (and possibly a different issue) unless the user clicks the [EXIT] button we've provided, not only does the session persist for 20 minutes, the login state saved in the MySQL table stays locked. Before the User can log back in, they need to call us to reset their state.
I'm looking for some kind of solution to address a user exiting the application abnormally. I am not sure of the correct procedural methodology, but I would think that some kind of process or event trigger would run in the background looking to cleanup stale sessions. Code:
I have a problem where the session state will not be enabled on the server. We are using Framework 1.1, a non-Sql Server database, and will be moving the application to a web farm in the future. Is there any way to keep the session state on a relational database that is not Sql Server? If so, how?
I was thinking about disabling session state on some of my pages by doing this: <% @ EnableSessionState = False %>
My question is if I disable the session state will the page still reset the session timeout (eg. back to 20min. default) when that page is loaded? I need it to reset the session timeout.
I'm looking for a working example on how to share session state between ASP and ASP.NET.The solution of Y Yeung of Microsoft seemed to be a good solution but I did not get the asp part working.Anybody tips, tricks, links ?
I have been storing an object as session variable, such as
set session("oRS") = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
The page then redirects to another page. i need to use this object on the called page, but i encounter an error saying 'User session has expired.' On checking with the code, it was found that the sesion variable has not maintained its state for object 'oRS'. Although, session for string type variable are maintained.
i have a form having hyperlink calling the same page.on click on hyperlink i am
submitting form "Onclick=dosubmit(form1);" dosubmit{ document.form1.submit(); } but i am not able to retain session data.how can i retain session data.
I will soon be undergoing a project where I will be migrating four to five web applications, developed in classic ASP, from a single Windows Server 2000 to a web farm that will utilize two, Windows 2003 Servers.
All of the applications utilize user/session management and I know that ASP's built-in session management cannot be carried across multiple servers.
I've been researching products available for purchase out there on the web, which allows you to include new code, which overrides ASP's built-in session management, by using a database to store sessions.
They all advertise that their solutions simply require just one line of code to be added to each ASP pages that uses Sessions, without any other changes to the existing ASP code.
Can someone who has done something similar advise on their experience? Is this really as easy as they are advertising, or are there other issues to take into consideration? Code:
We are running windows 2000 with dot.net framework 1.1 on IIS 5.1. This is an NLB architecture with the session being stored in an SQL DB. We have been coding and deploying using ASP.NET with no problems however the 'powers that be' have recently bought an online booking application which has been coded using classic asp.
We have set the session location in the machin config of the framework stating
mode="SQLServer". Will this ASP use this or continue to store the code InProc?
I am having trouble maintaining Session state between pages within my website. I had someone test the pages on their website and sessions state was maintained between pages, but for some reason, the same pages on my server do not. what might be happening?
how to find all the cities in the US and relate them to their state? I want to have a drop down that goes from state to city. i.e. I choose Illinois from a drop-down, then the next drop-down is populated with all the cities in Illinois.
I have all the states in my db, but how would I go about finding all the cities? I have been googling this for awhile, but no luck. Is it an xml feed?
I'm wanting to know how I can plug in a session state provider into ASP.NET. Currently you can use either the in-process, stateServer or SQL stores. Is the provider interface open and where is it documented? I've seen that Mono does provide their own state servers but I'm not sure if this is using standard provider interfaces.
Is it possible to store session state for each separate user in a separate process? We have a COM component that we want to use that is not thread safe and has to be isolated. We would like to store this in a separate process for each user.
What I am trying to do is to develop a dhtml based chat system. So far everything is working as planned, took me over 6 hours to get it working, but I am pleased with the results, it is comparable to java chat. With no page refresh. My problem is How do we manage which users are online on chat and which are not. I do not wish to use any application variables nor do i wish to use session variables. i am trying to avoid the 2 Either the user may simply close the chat window, or he might just go and browse another site. Either way I do not get to write the even to the database.
I have been asked to create a contact form for a website in ASP that will mail off the form data to a e-mail address but also log the e-mail data in a database. They then want a web page on-line that they can view all the e-mails in (not a e-mail client, just a html view of each one).Now i have two issues with this, 1. i have never coded in ASP in my life, (php yes, lots) and 2. i dont see the point in being able to view them online when they will have the e-mail in their desktop mail client.Does anyone know of a script that will do what i'm after that is free and uses MSAccess not SQL Server?It's a big ask, but if there was something a bit like it i could have a go at modifying it.
Could anyone tell me what big corporations do for link management? For my site, whenever I want to change a URL, I don't want to because I know there are 10 pages with that link...
But, right now I'm doing a redesign and will be editing every page, so I thought I'd better find out if there's an efficient way to manage my links...
My first thought was to create a page which I include in every page, and this page has all the links for diff pages, like so:
Has anoyone ever tried to create an asp page that displays images that either displays them as a slideshow or on a long webpage?
I have an html page that displays my pictures, but as there are many of them which are large and my bandwidth is restricted I want to download them and display them one at a time. Currently it the client tries to download them all at the same time, or four at a time. This slows down the downloads to an unbearable rate.
Is there a component that allows you detect when an image has been downloaded and then allow a trigger to start downloading the next one?
Is there any differenc ein the way ASP handles the Session management in Windows 2000 server with IIS 5.0 and 2003 Server with IIS 6.0?
Did anything changed with respect to the Cookie Management?
My code works well in 2000 with IIS5.0 and if I changed my deployment environment to Windows 20003 with IIS 6.0, Cookie management is not consistent and I am not able to maintain the sessions at some places.
I am looking for some type of way to allow a client to update their web site. The thing is, I do not want them to be able to format the text in anyway. All I want them to be able to do is just type the text that they want....no formatting by them allowed at all.
Is there a program already made that would allow me to do this?If not what would be the best way to approach this?
