Trimming Db Results
i don't know what to do here exactly.
i have seen the TRIM function, but i'm not sure if it's the right way to do it.
i have a recordset called RSUSEREDIT.
in the recordset there is a column called "EMail".
i can print out the results using Code:
<%=RSUSEREDIT("Email")%>
the email column always uses the same domain name... - username@domain.com
is it possible to remove the part after and including the "@"?
Trimming Commas
I'm dynamically building an SQL string to do an execute, and keep ending up with a leftover comma, so the string looks like this.
INSERT INTO Software ( Title, Version, Licensing, Total_Licenses, support_phone, support_email, Campuses_Licensed, Comments, support_web, FundingSource, Course_title, Subject, Grade_level, LocalExpert, ACTIVE, CATE, EntryDate,) VALUES ( 'Bob's Super Crappy Software', '4.3', 'labpack', '36', '555', '555', 'Alexander, Bilhartz, Central, Fairmeadows, Hyman, Daniel', 'James is testing this', 'www.bob.com', 'Campus PO', 'Math', 'Math', '4, 5, 6', 'Patrick Williams', '1', '0',)
Both commas are added dynamically and can be trimmed on the fly. I tried using RTRIM(strSQL, ",") but this didn't work.I put the fields into an array and tried to add only commas to all but the last entry, but that also didn't work.
Trimming Words
I have a database field that is a memo type. I would like to be able to only display the first 50 words from the database. I would like for it to show ..... after about 50 words.
I am using <%=Content %>. How do I trim this field to show only 50 words and then ....?
I tried the following code:
Function LengthTrim(input, length)
If Len(input) > length Then
Return Left(input, length) + "..."
Else
Return input
End If
End Function
then <%= LengthTrim(Content, 50) %>
But it would not work. I got the following error message:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'Variable is undefined: 'Return' .
Trimming Filename
I am storing URL in a database for a 'sort of' directory type website.The <a href> is built from the recordset of URL's which is all working no problem, easy stuff.What I have found is going to be necessary in some cases is to trim the URL back to just it's www.abc.co.uk address for the link display.
I still want the actual link to go to it's long 'deep linking' location, but there is limited room for displaying a URL that could be a hundred chars long.

is doing it. Here is the sample code:
