Text Effects With VBscript/asp
Its purely for aesthetics - not essential but i thought it would add a refined touch.
I want to get an effect where it types the text accross the screen as if it was being typed a letter at a time. For example to write "Hi guys" it would write:
H
Hi
Hi
Hi g
Hi gu
Hi guy...
etc etc but not all on a new line.
I figure this is possible using loops and so on, but to get the effect that I want I will need to make the script wait between printing each letter. Is there a VBscript command for this or will I have to start using ActiveX controls or something?

I am using a datagrid to display info on my page. Originally, I had the headers linked to a style sheet so that I can control the look of the headers from the CSS file. However, once I set the SortCommand property in the header, it seems that the style of the header changes. My font is now different and underlined. How can I control which style my sortable heading is using?

I know this is a little off topic, but this is the best resource I know of for anything coding related.
I'm needing to read through a text file that will have the following format:
c:ools
c:docs
c:htdocs
And have the the results put in an array for later processing. What I'm trying to build is a small vbscript that will automatically backup each path that may be in a given txt file.

I have a VBScript function:
<script language="VBScript" type="text/vbscript">
Function Main()
set wshshell = createobject("wscript.shell")
struser = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%")
strdomain = wshShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERDOMAIN%")
msgbox struser & strdomain
End Function
</script>
That works great as a Active X script but I want this to display as a value in a text field and I can't find how o do that.

When using ASP's FileSystemObject to create text files, I am unable to get user submitted text (in Hebrew) to save as anything other than "?????". The text file is being saved in Unicode and setting the CodePage in ASP proved unsuccessful. Strangely, hard coded Hebrew text in an ASP variable does add to the text file correctly.
Any ideas of why this happens and how to get it to work correctly?

I have a form on asp page that pulls info from a DB when the page loads.
It them puts the info into text boxes on the page that are editable by the
user.
The only problem I have is say in the description text box it should
read "HP Laserjet 5Si" , it always cuts the text off where it just says "HP"
.. It does this on all the text boxes? I can't seem to figure out why it
is doing it. Here is the sample code:
With quotes around <%= vdesc%>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" id="desc" size="45" value="<%=
vdesc%>"></td>
And I tried it without.

I have text in a field coming from a database. The text has various
forms such as:
text1
text1 or text2
text1 or text2 or text3
text1; or text2
text1; or text2; or text3
etc...
how can I parse this with a reg ex? I tried this:
(.+);? or
but it only captures 1 submatch (text1) and only if theres an "or"
after it
I'd like to get 1 submatch for each piece of text separated by the
"or", just the text itself if there is no or.
Anyone know how to do it?

I have an ASP page, on the Window_OnLoad event I use VbScript to popup an Inputbox to accept a value from the user and put it into a string called strValue. I then want to be able to go (in asp)
<%Response.Write(strValue)%[color=blue]

How can I access the Vbscript variable in the ASP part of the page?

I tried using some code examples from (URL address blocked: See forum rules) into my defualt.aspx page (in VS2005). I had some errors with this. I thought this might be cause the tutorial at w3schools.com said it was for *.asp files.
For example I had an error ("Statement cannot appear within a method body. End of method assumed) when I tried putting a SUB in the <head>. Like this
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "(URL address blocked: See forum rules)">
<html xmlns="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" >
<head runat="server">
<%
sub vbproc(num1,num2)
response.write(num1*num2)
end sub
%>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
By the way if anybody will be available to answer basic questions like this every so often throughout the day (ie: check your email or this forum every couple of hours, until midnight California time December 8), I'd be willing to pay a reasonable amount. I just need help with some of the technical details like this + finding source code

I manipulate MSAgent AcitiveX object using VBScript at client side, I
met a wierd problem when I debugged my ASPX page. when msagent recognize
a phrase and fire event, my vbscript capture the event and do something,
including make the agent do some animation and speech, then open a
browser window using 'window.open "www.google.com", "Google" '. the code
works fine when I view the ASPX page with browser inside VS.NET, when
browse this page in web browser from the localhost, the agent works
fine, but the new window did open up. why?

I'm trying to create a simple recordset, and would like to include an and/or option. to do this i set up an option on the previous page,and then sent the selection through to the next page. i was then hoping to simply insert the variable i had created into the code so that whichever of and/or is selected is used in the code. i.e.
where and_or is the variable from the previous page.
Search.Source = "SELECT * FROM dbo.Employee_List where First_Name='"&firstname&"' '"and_or"' Last_Name='" &lastname&"'"
so basically whenever someoned chooses an option its automatically filled in at the indicated location in the code. is it possible to do this and if so what is the correct syntax for using variables within this code?the full search function will have numerous fields so i'd like to avoid using if statements.

I have absolutely NO knowledge about ASP. Though I've been working with PHP for almost 2 years and decided that I need to take the next step and learn some more languages both to keep me busy and to expand my skills.
Like I said...I have no knowledge or experience with this. From what I read, there are two ways of coding ASP. First using VBScript and then C#. I'm really confused, because for one, I don't know what the difference is, and secondly I'm ot sure which is the best.
I'll be primarily (if not only) be using ASP to build online applications, websites, etc.

a dictionary of terms with definitions, (in a database) how can i hyperlink(automatically) words within the definitions for which a definition also exists.
url structure is like this
www.site.com/glossary?word=someword
Then - in the definition of "someword" there is a word that also has a definition in the database. I'd like to auto hyperlink it to that definition. Also since the data is all coming from a database, what if one of the words to be replaced has not yet come up in the loop? (...or would it be okay since EVERYTHING should be in the recordset?

usually do perl and php. However, I would like to backup my databases with a microsoft sql server and sometimes a simple access database. In other words I would have a perl or php script that would insert data into a mysql database and at the same time post to a vbscript that will deal with the microsoft sql server or access database. I choose not to use perl or php to do the latter because I would like to keep every aspect according to its environment.
Almost every vbscript I've looked at is embedded in the html page. Since I intend to send via a post from a different type script - my question is can you place vbscript on the server as a stand alone? If this is possible - Where can I find references to this?

I have been asked to convert a system-by-system project creator program to a server-based web-interface site. It is currently written in VB 6 and I am going to need to have it in class vbscript.
Is there an easy way to do this? Or do I need to manual go through all the code? I've never programmed in VB but have done some vbscript. But I still don't know whats in VB that translates well into vbscript. Obviously, one is a programming language and the other is a stripped down version.
