Storing The Contents Of A Text File Within A Variable
I was looking for a method to store the contents of text file within a variable. So far I am able to read the text file and output the results using the write method. Going a step further I also wanted to replace a particular string within those same results using the "Replace" function. This works as well.
My question, how can I store the final result that write's to the screen so that I can reference it later. If you run this code, I basically want to take the verbiage that displays on the sreen and place it into a variable. Code:
I'm attempting to read from a text file and output the contents into one variable that I can write to the page later. I can't Response.Write the thing because of the way our system is designed. Here's the code I got so far:
<% set objFSO =server.createobject("scripting.filesystemObject") path = "E:******************" & session("ENTRYPAGE") & "content.asp" path = replace(path,"www.","") set objstream = objFSO.opentextfile(path) do while not objstream.atendofStream lineText = objstream.readline lineText = lineText & lineText loop response.write linetext objstream.close %>
All I get for output is the last line of the text file twice.
Note: The content.asp that I'm trying to load in does not contain any ASP. All of the content is HTML.
I need help with storing the number of times a site get hits, and have the value stored in a text file, i could only get part of the code working , Code:
I tried to read a text file from my local com, but it keep on loading and loading, after tat, i'll need to restart my IIS... im sure tat the directory of the txt file is correct... The code is running very well in another com, is there any kind of permission/ something i missed?
I tried the search function but I can't really identify what this kind of issue would be called (Searching store variable comes back with hundreds/thousands of hits).
I am doing an update form which opens 2 SQL connections (its easier for me to do this cause I mess up joins to a significant degree, that and performance is not a big worry, eitherway).
<notes> Both connections are open, one is called rs, the other is called articlers. I have 2 databases (named database1, and database2), and I have two different SQL strings (SQL and articleSQL, the problem comes in the 2nd string and in storing a variable. Code:
I'm using a session variable to store a log in so the user only has to log in once every time they come to the site for multiple features that require a password check.
What I'm doing is using one central login page that pops up when they click on whatever locked feature they're going for. The password form's action is back to this same page, which has this code towards the top: Code:
I would like to read the dynamic contents of an asp page and set these in a variable. In php I can do it with the help of include, but include is not exactly the same in asp. Any clue?
I need some advice/ideas on how I could do the following:
I want to store articles which contain both images and text - like a writeup of an event - kind of an image and text blog.
I want to store articles in a database probably - at the moment I use access databases.
Clearly I could have the text of my article in one field and store images (or links to them) in other fields and then display all the images at the end of the article but what I want is..
to be able to make it to have text then a few paragraphs down have a nice right aligned image with text to the left of it and then some more text etc etc so it looks like a static, layout planned article.
What would be the best way to go about this? Can this be done by storing in a database?
im wondering if there is a method/command which can be used so that when an asp page is called, it can 'explode' content from a text file (.txt) onto a web page, thus enabling a n00b to alter the text within the file, rather than the web page itself?
Further more, if I wanted to incorporate the text which is exploded into a CSS to give it some style flava, how would I do this? Is it possible?
I am working on a book selling website using ASP with an Access DB. Basically i would like to have an image of each book in the DB to be displayed upon request in the website. So I guess what i would really like to know is
1. Can i store .jpg or .gif files in an Access DB? 2. Does it make sense to do this? 3. Would it be better to have some kind of pointer in the DB to a place in the file system where the image is stored? .......
I have a text file where each record has two fields, name and number, separated by a delimiter. I would like to sort the file contents by the second filed, number, and display to browser. I can do this in php readily, but not seeing how to do it in asp. Can it be done?
I have created a intranet site for a small department in the company i work for. Thanks to the help of these forums I have dabbled into a small bit of asp to automate a few manual processes.
One of the problems I would like to overcome if at all possible is as follows.. There is a network drive for which all the department have read access, the drive is full of useful documentation on processes and how too do things!
The major problem is that there are soo many documennts and different directories tat it would be a nightmare to try and search for what you want.... so this leads me to my question...
Is it possible to have some sort of google type relavence search that not only examines the filenames but also the contents of the files... (the files are mostly excel and word docs).
I want to upload image files (jpg) into a sub-directory of a website root directory using a web interface allowing the user to browse their drive and select the jpg file to upload.
Also, is there a way to parse the information from the jpg file and insert the information into a SQL database table which would hold the file name, image height, and image width?
I'm new to handling binary files, so I'm not sure how to accomplish this?
I'd like to process an ASP page and pipe it's contents out to a file.
I can do this easily in PHP by using the php executable on the command line through a cron job(unix). Is there an equivalent for ASP? I see it as a less complicated cache.
So far I've only been able to output the actual script lines to a file. I want ASP to intrepret, then output.
I'm trying to change the colour of the session("name") variable below, but not having any luck. I need the name to be a different colour than the "logged in as". Any suggestions? Code:
This thread is not so much a big problem, but more to receive comments on my approach. You may have some other tips or advices of where to go or where absolutely not to go with my attempts. Code:
Does anyone know of a method of converting text files to sound files (.wav, mp3 etc) which can be accessed from ASP?
I have an ASP-based website that enables users to design choreography for equestrian dressage. The resulting design is held as a series of coded movements in a database and it can then be reproduced as text or as a series of diagrams. I would like to offer the option of an audio version.
I have an ASP page that is the basic 'home' location for all of my clients who log into my website. In the user_area.asp page, it calls for some common elements with an #INCLUDE FILE statement that are standard and not variable.
If I have a field in my Cutsomer Data Base (.mdb) called 'Custom2' and that field would contain a URL to something like:
What I would need to do is be able to use the #INCLUDE FILE statement to call for the 'Custom2' field so that I could include the clients 'personalpage.asp' within the "home" my 'user_area.asp' page.
Does anyone have knowledge of converting text file to .iff file. I am working on a VB ASP application. I searched for example on internet but I didn't get anything.
If you have any idea of converting text file to .iff file (VB ASP) please share with me.
I want to read an asp file as a text file. The problem is that the file that I want it to read is located on a server. For example: I want to read te content of this file: http://www.bnro.ro/Ro/Info/default.asp . I want to look after some values in that file.
