Stock Quotes
I'm currently writing a custom financial app that tracks stock purchases and
values. however, I need help in retrieving stock quotes from the internet. A
20 minute delayed quote is fine. I do not want to revert to "page or screen
scraping".
Cart And Stock
I have built a site with a cart which works fine but the client now wants stock to be deducted when the items is added to the cart. I have added 3 fields to the products table Stock, inBasket and Sold. The issue is that when they add to their Cart I deduct from Stock and add to inBasket.
If the user never completes the purchase then the stock level is always too low and inbasket too high.
If the users sales is completed in PayPal they are returned to the site and their Order is marked as paid or cancelled.
What I'd like if it is possible is a way set a timer on an order so that if it didn't complete the stock is reinstated.
Updating Stock
I have made a type of system for stock where there is a page that displays all the stock on hand. This is pulling data from a table in the database. There is another page for taking stock.
So, you click on an item from the dropdown list and then type in the quantity you are taking. This info is inserted into a different table. How do I do an update so that if someone takes 20 of an item, it deducts 20 from the stock on hand column in the other table?

Does anyone know how to implement a stock quote using ASP on a website? Any sample code or components, etc.

Using classic ASP, are there any examples which I can use to show a stock price of a particular stock.The URL I am looking at is:

Is there a way that the page will directly update the intranet page with the stock price of the indicated stock?
ASP Function To Provide Stock Quotes?
Anyone know of an ASP application that will provide me with stock data for a
specific ticker symbol? Of course, a free app would be nice, but I'd
consider something I have to pay for.
I'd prefer something that is not an installed component (not a DLL or COM).
Different Messages Displayed Depending On Stock Level
I want to display a different message deppending on the amount of stock left. For example if there is no stock i would like to display "out of stock", if the item is in stock display "in stock". Code:
View Replies View RelatedSQL And Single Quote
I have a simple form submission but the problem is my SQL insert (or update) is failing if in the text field there is any single quotes (')
I tried running the like replace(textfield,"'","") to just remove them but it will still error out on me.
is there any other way to format the variable, do I need to use an escape character?
Asp + Quote + Dhtml
I'm trying to make a dynamic table where on the left side items are placed and on the right side the item clicked is shown. For an example look at www.uitdagen.nl uitgaan->cafes
This all works fine except when I use a ' or a newline a error is generated because in dhtml a ' is used to open and close a string. When i use a ' in the string it goes wrong because i already close the string in the string.
If already tried to use chr(39) etc. But this won't work because this still will generate a ' for the dhtml.
Single Quote In SQL
Running into a what I thought should be a small problem but it's going on an hour and I still can't figure it out
Reading an excel file and running queries on Sheet names. The problem is when there is a single quote in the sheet name.
selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM Dave's Sheet"
I tried to use
selectQuery = "SELECT * FROM Dave's Sheet"
But that doesn't work either.
It keeps bombing the query. Not matter what I try I can't get this to work. I can't replace the single quotes because then it can't find the tab name. Any ideas?
Single Quote
how i could insert data into my DB that contained apostrophes. for example, I wanted to insert Bailey's well, my SQL statement was being cut off when it hit the ' and i was getting all sorts of errors. i was writting some complex stuff to take out the ' then re-insert it when being displayed.lots of work then i thought, what if i replace my ' with " in my insert statement.
like i said, some of you may know this, but i thought id share my experience with you just in case someone runs across the same problem.
Quote Line
I am writing an asp app for generating quotes. What I would like to do is allow the user to edit the quote lines without having to open a new page each line.
On the quote I have created a loop which goes through the recordset and populates a sort of data grid. Can you use javascript or something so the user can click an edit icon on the appropriate line item in the grid and edit the line details there instead of having to open another page to edit the line item.
Aposstrophe, Quote
I have this simple Select:
Select * from MATABLE WHERE title = '"&myvariable&"' ORDER BY title
so some of my title have single quote/apostrophe in them, ex: Don't know me . so when I tried to access those article with that kind of title I get the error message Missing operator. So is there a way to have my title be all right? a function maybe?
Single Quote In URL
I am having a problem with a single quote in my URL. I use HTMLEncode and all is good on my machine, but when I test it with a browser from a different machine, I get 403 on invalid characters. More, it seems to me that the URL gets truncated after that single quote that I have in my URL.
View Replies View RelatedGetting Around Quote Marks And Apostrophies
I am working on building an asp forum, (I have posted a few times with questions ) and it works for the most part now, but I am trying to fix some things.
I am storing posts in a memo field. Originally it was text fields, but 255 characters is just not good enough.
Now, posts are saved fine except for 2 things:
1/ " and ' cause errors. These are causing conflicts with my INSERT SQL statement that is made. How would you get around this problem, I wonder?
2/ New lines etc are not being put into the memi field. I can live without this for the time being, but at some point I will want to implement posts being outputted in the same format they were inputted. Any advice on how to deal with this issue?
Javascript Quote Mark
I am having trouble getting the 's and +s on this statement correct. The first select line works as it is supposed to but the 2nd one does not. Can anyone correct this and perhaps tell me/point me in the direction of the rule of thumb for stuff like this?
Code:
<SELECT size="1" name="waste" onChange="window.location='drumsnew.asp?waste='+this.value+' &c_type=<%=Selected_Container_Type%>'+'&c_size=<%=Selected_Container_Size%>';">
<SELECT size="1" name="ctype" onChange="window.location='drumsnew.asp?waste='<%Selected_Waste_Type%>'+'&c_type='+this.value+'&c_size=<%

Single Quote In Link
I'm trying to produce an image with a javascript link. The problem seems to
be with the single quote. Here is the code that I wrote:
response.Write("<a href='javascript:PopUp('http://www.yahoo.com')'><img src='image1.jpg' width='50' height='67'></a>")
When I preview the page and roll over the image, the link is truncated to just javascript:PopUp( .
I've tried creating the link with a string like below.
strLink = "javascript:PopUp(" & " ' " & "http://www.yahoo.com" & " ' " & ")"
The string displayed properly when printed on screen, but when I tried to use it as the link it truncated again. I'm not real sure what to try next.
Too Many Quote Using Replace Function
I seem to end up with too many double quotes when using this clean up function.. either that or I am missing a display function when I display the details from the dB.
My function
Code:
Function CleanFormFields(FieldString)
FieldString = Replace(FieldString, "�", "'")
FieldString = Replace(FieldString, "�", """""")
FieldString = Replace(FieldString, "�", """""")
FieldString = Replace(FieldString,"""","""""")
FieldString = Replace(FieldString, "'", "''")
FieldString = Trim(FieldString)
CleanFormFields = FieldString
End Function
I only really wanted the microsoft ouble quote to become one set of double quote instead of double as I have here but I can't get away with anything less.
essentially when I input a � I get a "" when I only want ".
Querying Single Quote
I have a rather basic question. I have a simple username and password front end that queries a SQL database, I run into problems when one of the user names has a single quote in it (IE: O'brian).
I get the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14' Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'brian'." error message, any clues on how to display those particular cases? is there anything in particular that should be done to my SQL statement?
Replacing Single Quote

Insert Double Quote
I've got a form which lets users input HTML code into a database (the user enters their code into a form field, then submits, and the HTML is written to a db). This code is then pulled out of the database onto a web page. It must validate - so needs to have all characters intact.
How do I perform an update statement which lets me insert double quotes into the database? I know it's possible to achieve a similar thing by replacing the double quotes with some other characters on insert, then replacing these other characters with double quotes when the data is pulled out of the db, but this seems a bit messy.

ASP "Control Stock Level" Calculation
I am developing a simple ASP-Access system for invoicing purpose, and the system is in 98% progress. What I want to do now is to add some sort of "control stock levels".
Let say I have set the quantity of an item/product (eg, pencil=100) in my database (in my database it refer to the table tblProducts with the field called PStockLevel) When one customer want to buy 10 pencil, the system will automatically set the PStockLevel to 90.

Problem With Building Sql Statement To Handle Single Quote
I have a asp page where part of the code is as follows. This builds up the sql statement partially.
sql01 = "UPDATE EquipmentTbl SET "
sql01 = sql01 & "SerialNumber = '" & request.form(strSerialNum) & "', "
sql01 = sql01 & "Description = '" & request.form(strDesc) & "', "
sql01 = sql01 & "Location = '" & request.form(strLoc) & "', "
RESULT OF PARTIAL UPDATE STATEMENT USING RESPONSE.WRITE IS:
UPDATE EquipmentTbl SET SerialNumber = 'A83737', Description = 'Video
Conferencing Equipment', Location = 'Conference Rooms cabinet',
Now, in the above, I would like to be able to put the location field as 'Don's room'. In other words, I would like to handle the aprostrophe after Don. With this in mind I am changing the code as following: Code:
