I'd like to find the time difference in seconds in my ASP-code, but can't find how to do this. In php you have the time() that give the seconds from 1.1.1970 (?) until now. Is there something like this in ASP too? I have found the DateDiff that one just gives days, right? I basicly want to have two variables, time1 and time2, and show the seconds between them.
View RepliesBasically I have 2 times:
timea = (date here) 12:00:00 PM
timeb = now()
and what i want to do is compare the difference in seconds between the two.
But I'm struggling and the thought has crossed my mind that DateDiff only works with dates not times...
Code:
<%
Dim DateToCompareTo
DateToCompareTo = 4/10/2005 1:00:00 PM
%>
There are <%= DateDiff("s", Now(), DateToCompareTo) %> seconds left %>!
I would like to display the difference between the logging time
[Session("start"] and the current time [now]. In hours minutes and seconds,
I have tried a couple of things but all I see is gobbledy gook.
I'm having a problem with this code:
Code:
<input type="hidden" name="lastdate" value="<%=now%>">
not returning the "seconds" portion of time. It writes the date and time - but only to the minute. The seconds are 00 each time. Ex. 1/29/2005 1:47:23 PM is what I want and 1/29/2005 1:47:00 PM is what I'm getting.This is the result I'm getting on two separate DB's on two different servers. I'm sure there's some glaring problem I'm overlooking because I sure can't see it.
I have a simple calendar scipt that ask for time of event input. While I like the time feature I do not like the fact that it displays with seconds included.
Ex. Displays HR:MIN:SEC 5:05:30 PM
Desired display 5:05 PM
How do I get rid of the display showing seconds? I have changed the database format, but this does not seem to effect the disply on the asp page.
I need to convert seconds into time since for a message board application.
"minutes ago, hours ago and days ago" etc.
I have capture the time of the original post and compared it to the time now getting seconds but having a little trouble working out the seconds into time. Have used calculations (/60 minute), (/3600 hour), and (/86400 hour) but the time remaining is bugging me.
The code to show how long it took the page to generate in seconds ?!?, if you get onto the main page of this site, www.tgplus.net and loom at the left had side, it tells you how long it took the page 2 generate.

View Replies View RelatedI am logging a time that people log in, stored as a short time. I want to be able to run a script which runs through my users database and checks all the users who are logged in, it checks the users last action time time against the current time and automatically logs any out any users who haven't had any activity in more than 30 minutes.
pseudo code as follows:
dim currentTime = now()
dim lastActionTime = rs("lastAction")
if(lastActionTime < currentTime - 30 minutes)
log the user out
Can anyone tell me how I code the time calculation to deduct 30 minutes from the current time?
i need to get the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1990 or 70 or something to compare session times ... how do i get the timestamp in seconds ...
btw the msdn library is not a very good one ... does any one know an asp manual simillar to php (downloadble) ...
Code:
StartTime = FormatDateTime((rs("startdate")),3)
this returns
7/4/2006 1:00:00 AM

I have a variable that returns a certain number of seconds. Is there a function that can format this into something more useful?
For example, if the variable returned is 32, then it would format it to say "32 seconds"
If the variable is 312, then it would return "5 minutes and 12 seconds"
If the variable was 7315 then it would return "2 hours, 1 minute, and 55 seconds"
And so on.
Is there a way to response.redirect to a url within 5 seconds or something, so its not right away? I was thinking meta refresh, but everywhere I go online it says that meta refreshes are not a good idea.
View Replies View RelatedI have a column in my Access db that stores a number which is supposed to be seconds. How can I convert the seconds to display mm:ss on my ASP page? For instance, if the number in the db is 300, I want it to display 5:00 on my page.
Now these are lengths of time, not current time (AM or PM), so I dont want it to display the AM or PM. I've tried format(rs("length"), "nn:ss") and that didnt work. Matter of fact Format(), FormatDateTime(), and FormatNumber() doesnt work on my page. I've been getting the 800a000d Type Mismatch error. What am I doing wrong? Code:

What is the best way to do an ASP/sleep for 8 seconds (pause script for 8 seconds)? I have tried the following:
EndTime = Now() + (8 / (24 * 60* 60)) '8 seconds
Do While Now() < EndTime
'Do nothing
Loop
But unfortunately that keeps the CPU at 100% for that time. I need something that doesn't impact the CPU, as this delay will be in a while loop that will execute continuously for a few days.
Been playing with the function DateDiff, and with it it's easy to calculate the difference in years/months/days between two dates. However, if i wanted to calculate the difference in Years, Months, Days, Hours, Seconds (a la Ebay bids) how can I do this? Is it easy or complicated?

View Replies View RelatedI need to get the number of seconds when subtracting two date/times.
With the code I am using below I subtract the two date/times and end
up with a total of days like "1.56".
Then when I multiply it to get
the number of seconds I am not getting an accurate number. I should
only have whole numbers of seconds with nothing past the decimal
point. I would like to be able to subtract the two date/times and get
the number of seconds without multiplying to get it. Is this possible?
Does anyone have a better more accurate way to do this? Code:
I have been looking around at various design solutions for uploading a file using ASP and have found that many sources have devised a much simpler plan using ASP.NET.

I'm writing an ASP app that administers an ISA server remotely. The fact that it's an ISA server isn't my problem I believe. My question? What is the security difference between disabling anonymous access and using account X from the web client, versusallowing anonymous access but using account X as the account that runs the application?
When I configure my web application to allow anonymous access, but set the anonymous process to use account X, my ASP code works (the ASP code can administer my ISA Server). When I disable anonymous access, and I log into the web application using the same account X I mention above, I get an error 80070005 when my ASP code tries to connect to my ISA server to administer it. I would think the above two options would be equivalent, but they're not. What is the difference?
I have a problem to calculate the day different. I use

I understand how asp scripting works and how you put <% %> around your server script. However this is .asp . what is .aspx? is this the new version ASP.nET? I dont understand how it works when i create a new aspx project in vstudio.net and i create a aspx page in design view.
I add a button and then double click it to add code to that button. I dont see any html code around it? In an asp page the server side code is surrounded by html code. An aspx page almost looks like a normal vb application, why is there no html
code around?
