I am having a problem calling the Timer function. I get a compile error
when I include a call to this function.
Invalid character
/sirenServer/INCLUDE/test.asp, line 32, column 19
starttime = Timer()
Here is my system setup:
ASP.dll Version: 5.0.2195.6672
VBscript.dll Version: 5.6.0.8515
On Windows 2000 with IIS5.0 and front page server extensions 2002.
IE 6, VS.NET 2003. and Visual Studio 6.
I'm writing with VBscript and Dreamweaver. I need to create a visible timer that counts down based on how much time a customer has prepaid for. I'm using Access. When they are out of the time the session must be terminated. I guess it should also warn them when they are closing in on expiration.
I'm developing a small ASP server that needs to communicate with another server via http requests. All is working well, but I need the data sent automatically every 5 minutes and sometimes when a certain time is reached. Is there a way to have a program in the background that triggers a function after a certain time has elapsed, of a certain time is reached, and then starts again?
I need at least one occurence of such a service, and perhaps two. The time is not critical to the millisecond, only to the minute or so. I cannot register components, and I don't use .net technology, just ASP scripts. I've browsed the net, but could only find commercial solutions or timers that must be polled. But I need something like an interrupt.
I have built a page that displays some info out of a database. The page uses a datagrid that is filled using a dataset. Forward and backward navigation of the datagrid is custom and works.
What I want is for the datagrid to skip to the next "slide/page" automatically every 10 seconds.
I've tried adding a System.Timers.timer controll onto the page and having the timer_elapsed method run an exact copy of the code used to skip to the next "slide/page" by clicking a button.
I am having a few problems with the Timer component in ASP.NET. I can get it to work in the C# windows application of visual studio but not in the ASP.NET.
The thing is a number of people will be logged into the website (its a game) so each person will need to view the same timer counting down to zero.
This is the code in ASP.NET. The timer only seems to be counting during page load.
How do i get it to count for a number of minutes while the game is in progress????
I have a web site which after 20 seconds of a visitor being on my site no matter which page he/she is on then a pop up window will appear.
The problem is that i want this for the site as a whole and not just an individual page. If it was just one page then i could use javascript but every time the page is refreshed or a different page is opened then the timer would start again.
I am creating a auction web site. I am using ASP on the front and SQL Server 2000 in the back. I am trying to figure out a way to get an auction to basically countdown until it reaches 0 seconds left, then to trigger a certain web page to tally who won.
Example:
Auction: HARLEY 2004 MOTORCYCLE Time: 5 days
So in exactly 5 days or 120 hours the auction needs to know that it has ended and trigger a page to decide the winner.
I need a VBScript timer that is displayed in one of six frames on a page. The hr and mins remaining would come from Access. While the page is open the timer would run down. If and when it reaches no time left it would redirect the whole page to order.asp. I had some code that displayed it in the status bar, but I need it to display in the actual frame.
If anyone has any idea how this is done I would really appreciate it. I'm pretty lost on this.After that gets working I'm also gonna have to take thetime that was remaining and subtract it by what was used and save those variables as the new remaining time.
is there any functionality of timer in vbscript?what i want is that i want to excute a certain statement or set of statements depending upon the start and end time provided by the user.
I have an WebForm1 which contained a ListBox1. I have drag a Timer on the form. In the timer1_Elapsed() function , I have add the line ListBox1.Items.Add("haha"). But when the timer elapsed, it called that line of code, but the ListBox1 didn't show "haha". Would you tell me what I have missed?
I building a page showing the different times in different parts of the world but if the local time is 08:15:25 and I subtract 10 hours, it displays 0-2:15:25. How can I show it as 22:15:25.
Well i use Timer to test ASP scripts how much time is needed for rendering. But how much time, approximately a heavy asp project like CMS or FORUM should do?
I'm creating a countdown timer to a dynamic date, it reads a date from a db and then counts down to that date. I need to know once the date has been reached how i then display a message stating that the users member ship is up.
I would like to use the response.redirect code on the confirmation page for password changes. Basically what I am trying to do is send users back to the referring page if there is an error with the change (wrong password or username) and send them back to the home page if the change goes through. Unfortunately, response.redirect seems to instantly redirect the users. Is there a way to set a timer within this code so that the page can be viewed first?It would also be great if I could just use JavaScript instead, but I cannot think of a way to set the option of redirecting to two potential sites.
i know little about javascript and i am trying to make a timer for some exam. i know how to take the value from the table but i dont know how to show that in the form and make it move from the time eg. 00:10:00 until 00:00:00 and stop the exam and go to a different page which will have the results. i just need to know how to populate the time in javascript?
I'm currently using the MS Banner Rotator component that comes default with IIS, but all the tutorials i find are nly concentrating on rotating the banners per "refresh" of the page using a text file with a weighted percentage of what pic gets shown.
I would like to be able to set it so that a banner is shown every 10 seconds or so and is clickable etc...
Is this a pain or should i just bung them all in a flash movie or something?
I require a program that will allow a user to start the timer when he hits a button and stop the timer when he hits another button. Is there anyway where i can get the difference in Time:
I am attempting to write a simple progress bar for a redirect page. I am unsure if I need to do this in javascript or if I can do this in asp. The progress bar is a series of square blocks that are transparent, but outlined, and fill as the loop works through it's processes. I have been tinkering around with this for awhile now and I can get it to run. sort of.
I get the same table written on the page as the loop goes through it's process, instead of just one table. I was also looking for a simple timer that pauses before doing the next action. Is that just a simple server.pause or server.timer?
I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.
