I have a bit of a problem with UK Post code strings, as you guys in the UK will know, our postcodes are alpha numeric.
LL12 4RS, C4 4GF, DG1 7HD etc etc...
What I need to do is grab the first letter(s) of the post code, ignoring the rest of it. Now, 'cos it can be either 1 or 2 (and in some weird cases 3) letters, I can't do a simple left() on it.I'm guessing something like a regexp will be the way to go? (but I'm a bit hazy on the reg exp thing)
I am requesting a form field which has a UK postcode value eg yo17 9hs, or NE15 7YY. What I need to do is pull out just the first part of the postcode, in this case it will be yo17 and ne15. Anyone help me do this in asp?

server to a 3rd party server in an aspx page.
I have some code that works unreliably. If I try the request from a few web
pages it will not work reliably.
I use ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem, myHttpWebRequest1.BeginGetRequestStream,
myHttpWebRequest1.BeginGetResponse.
Does Microsoft’s .Net SSL socket code use blocking sockets by the way?
i've got this code...
Dim oOriginalPO, oXMLHTTP, strFileName, strURL
strURL = "url that is required"
strFileName = sXML
Set oOriginalPO = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")
Set oXMLHTTP = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
oOriginalPO.async = False
oOriginalPO.load strFileName 'name of file containing cXML data
oXMLHTTP.open "POST", strURL, False 'strURL is our URL you post to
oXMLHTTP.send oOriginalPO
So on the assumption that the sXML variable has correct information inside it to send out, can anybody see why perhaps this code isn't working properly?
Some one has kindly supplyed me with this regexp to check all UK post codes:
/^([Gg][Ii][Rr] 0[Aa]{2})|((([A-Za-z][0-9]{1,2})|(([A-Za-z][A-Ha-hJ-Yj-y][0-9]{1,2})|(([A-Za-z][0-9][A-Za-z])|([A-Za-z][A-Ha-hJ-Yj-y][0-9]?[A-Za-z])))) [0-9][A-Za-z]{2})$/
The trouble is it looks for a space in the middle and i DONT want a space.I can't see the bit that does this

View Replies View RelatedI was wondering if someone could help me with a formatting problem for ASP/SQL?
Is it possible to format a variable string from a textbox?
I'll try and make it more clear what i want, sorry.
I have a page with a textbox and submit button for users to input a postcode, which then searches a database for matching or similar postcodes.
This is the query i am using: Code:
Is there a way to 'force' a submit on a form with out actually allowing the
user to press a button ? For example...
step1: A from is filled out by a user, then they click the submit button.
step2: The form is 'post'ed to an ASP page which writes the values to a
database. So far No problems. But..
step3: Now I want to 'post' these values again to another page without any
user interaction.
My ideas were:
1) I know you can get the form values from Request.Form("myVar"), so I
thought of making a 'dummy' form and setting the 'values' of the form
variables to these Request.Form("myVar") valiables, but I don't know how to
'submit' them to another page again.
2) Is there some type of 'submit' command in ASP?
i have a series of .asp pages that i am dividing into model, view, control logic. my view collects a whole bunch of data and posts it to the controller. im wondering if there is a way to somehow "re-post" this same data to my model page.
in short, is .asp capable of taking data posted to a page and re-post that same data to another page?
In a string what is the character I should use to represent an enter?
View Replies View Relatedi am retrieving a record from the database, I am trying to place the value of the FULLNAME field in a textbox on a Form, the Problem is that it only displays half of the name leaving out the stuff that comes after a SPACE.
Example:
adors("fullname").value <--- Actual Value is John Smith
but it only displays John
Code:
<INPUT id=text1 readonly name=txtfullname value=<%=adors("fullname").value%>>
but if I try to just response.write it anywhere on the page then it displays the entire name.
I have 2 SQL strings:
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & "
ORDER BY editie desc
And
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID
ORDER BY editie desc
Now I want to combine those 2 to one string.
I have problems to set it up in working order.
My tryout:
SELECT *
FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID &
" & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & "
ORDER BY editie desc
It shows al the records which are joined, only the second string " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & " is not working.
I found out a really nice way to keep things on the same page is for any processing page to add on a "?<something>=<something>"
and then just check to see what the something is equal to, and the number represents what you want the front page to show.
However, this <something> shows up on the url listing in a browser. Is there anyway to .. encode it so no one can see it? Like a encode/decode function?
I'm building a forum, and right now i'm creating the ability to edit posts. As part of this i want to add the usual "Edited by UserName on Date" line at the bottom, but am having problems doing so.
The problems seems to do with formatting the text in the variable with <span>s using stylesheets, or if there are " and ' markes in the post proper (which I can't seemt to remove with Replace). Here's my code:
if i had a string which looked like this :
,apple, orange, grape, tomatoes
how do i remove the first character[,] from the string using the trim() function?
I am developing a website and it's going fine, but i've heard that you shouldn't have your database in the wwwroot, it should be outside/above that.
I've done this (i'm using Dreamweaver MX) so I moved the db, fixed my odbc/dsn, connection string etc, but when I upload now I get this error.
Microsoft JET Database Engineerror '80004005'
'C:Program FilesEnsimSiteDatawebpplianceconfdomainsInet pubwwwrootTesting_SiteDatabasesTesting_Website _DataSource.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides. /Testing_Site/default.asp, line 8
This is line 8: Recordset1.ActiveConnection = MM_TestingConnection_STRING
Is there something that I have missed. It was ok when it was in the wwwroot.
i am having a problem with comparing two strings. I am taking
in the parameter rs("Company") and if this is empty i want to put some
text in there. I am testing it with an empty Company field and comparing
it like so:
temp1=rs("Company")
temp2=StrComp(temp1,NULL)
I have also tried it with
temp2=StrComp(temp1,"")
but each time i get nothing returned. Is there some rule about comparing a
string with an empty string?

View Replies View RelatedI have a search function on my site, and what happens at them moment is the user fills in a text box with their search string, and clicks submit. The search page takes their string, and splits it up where it sees " ".
All fairly simple, what I'd like is to allow the user to enter text in speechmarks, so the script would search for a couple of words together, as well as being able to search for every individual word...
Everyone confused yet?!
e.g If the user enters Dev Shed Forums , then the search would look for every occurance of the strings "Dev", "Shed" and "Forums"
What I want is for the user to be able to enter "Dev Shed" Forums, and the search will look for "Dev Shed" and "Forums"...

how could i merge the two strings to get the complete pic-path

How do I "escape" any quotes, accidental carriage returns etc that are
contained within strPageTitle? Do I have to use a series of replace()
functions, or is there a cunning way that makes it OK?
(Using escape(strPageTitle) fills the box with % signs...)

I need to see the output as johnsm

View Replies View RelatedI am currently developing a registration application for the Boy Scouts. We have paper forms for those who choose not to use a computer to register. The paper forms have a box for each letter so that it is legible. how can i re-create the paper forms with ASP. For those who go online and register they need to print out the youths registration forms and I want them to look like the paper forms.
Now there are a few fields that are mutliple words so it would have to support spaces as well. Is there even a way to do this. I know it is going to be a pain for the good look it is going to be critical. I was thinking of using strings to simply seperate each letter and tell the script to simply repeat until. Is the right way?

I've got a couple of strings I use to validate emails.

Could somebody let me know what these mean? My guess is that the longer string is better, simply because it tests more thoroughly, but I could be mistaken.
