Images & Docs Storing
I have a wast databse of records, where there are so many Images assiociated with each record. I store the Image paths, record's primary key in the database and retrive them as and when required to display the records and the necessary images corresponding to the records. the image path as of now contains a relative path from the root directoy.
Problem:
The main problem is ..what happenes when the hard disk is full and if i add another harddisk.. and add images into that new hard disk. how will i be able to address the images?? as they are in a separate hard disk hence cannot be addressed relative to the web site's root directory..

Converting Word Docs To PDF
Here at work, we have 2 copies of our policies and procedures. We have a Word format, and a PDF format. The problem is that when a policy is changed (there is a commitee meeting every month), the Word doc file is updated, and then a different user has to convert it to PDF (We only have 2 licenses for Acrobat).
I would like to try to develop a solution, where the user updates the doc file, and then goes to a page on our intranet, where they check the boxes beside of the policy and click Convert, then it would convert the doc file to PDF. The policies are in a "public" folder, so the directory structure would be the same everytime. Are there are any tutorials or examples for converting docs to PDF?
Pass Protected Docs.
I have pass protected files within a directory adequately and included a function that ensures the http_referer is the secured folders index file so that I can be sure the file they are calling is opened up as an include within the index file.
My problem is what if it is a pdf or word doc or pp file. It is a bit of a training directory and they may use various forms of presentations. Now in cold fusion I can control the whole directory by implementing the application.cfm file but I know of no way in asp to do this.

Word Docs Open Via Link
I have a page that links users to a Word document based on a value drawn from a database table. In other words, John Doe is linked to "./docs/<% = lastname%>.doc" ...
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's a way to control whether the doc opens read-only? I know Office 2003 docs are supposed to open read-only automatically, but I find that I can edit these docs no problem.

View Replies View RelatedStoring Image/docs Into Mssql
I need some advise and direction on the above issue. I am doing a site where a user are able to upload/download files (image/document). Currently i am storing the physical file on a directory and store the path and filename in mssql.
To retrive the file, i will just simply extract the path and filename to point to the file on the directory. Simple as that. Now i am having a problem when another user might upload a image/document with a same filename as a existing file. I can't replace the file or ask user to give a different filename when uploading to the directorty. So, i am thinking is it advisable to store the image/document in to MSSQL? If so, how do i do that?
Dynamically Create Html From Word Docs
I'm trying to figure out how to run a script on my server which will go over a few folders of Word documents, and create html pages out of them which I can then serve to my users. Preferably I want to do this without installing anything else on the server, hopefully it's achievable with a scripting language like VBscript/ASP?
I am used to web programming in PHP,Perl, Java, but for this I need to use ASP, on IIS. I've Googled & Yahooed and not come up with much.
Writing To DB
Ok, for my company, we have two current webpages, one for general company info and one specific to a product that we market. On the 2nd page, there is a form that allows users to request a consultation from the company. When it is sent, the information is stored in an Access DB for tracking purposes.
Now, I have been requested to put this same form on the general company website. All works fine, but I can't save to the db that is stroing the info once it is submitted. Boith sites are hosted by the smae company, but they do not have (as far as I know), a shared repository for files where I could put the db.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get around this issue? What I want to do is to have the form on both sites and have the submitted data saved into the one database.
Not Writing To My DB
I'm not getting error messages on this one so I don't know where to start looking. I type in my data in my form and this page should check it, add it then set a flag. Code:
View Replies View RelatedWriting Out XML With ASP
I have to perform a database query and write the results to an XML
file.
I also need to form this XML file with a DTD file.
I'd like to hear some opinions on the best way to do this.
I figured out how to write out just raw XML using adPersistXML. But
that doesn't really help as the XML needs to conform to the DTD.
I also found a way to write out the XML file line by line
using .createNode and .appendChild...but that would take forever as
the database query returns 72 columns.

Writing Few Messages
I have the following code as a part of authenticating a system.
If Rs.eof Then
Session("Authenticated") = 0
Response.Write "Sorry, your userid or password did not match"
Response.Write "<BR>"
Response.Write "or you have not registered yet. Please register"
Response.Redirect("login.asp")
Else
Session("Authenticated") = 1
Response.Redirect ("Welcome.asp")
End If
In the first if statement, I would like to display the above messages
before forcing the login.asp page to display. Is is possible to do both
message and contents of login.asp in the same page? Thanks
Writing To A Database
i am having problems figuring out the syntax used when writing information to a database thru a dropdown.
i have a dropdown w/ all the months listed and i need this recorded into a database where i have already set up a column named "month".
right now all i have is html that says:

Writing To Excel
I have an asp page that queries a database and displays a report. There is a
button on this page that I would like to dump the report into Excel. The
code behind the button:
var xl = window.open("/reportexport.asp", "_blank");
and a new window is displayed with excel. Now the problem is how do I get
the report html into this new window?
xl.document.write(window.document.body.innerHTML); is obviously not the way
since it doesn't work.
reportexport.asp contains only two lines:
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "filename=report.xls;"
Writing Cookie
I've been having problem writing a cookie. Everything goes ok but when I
supply the .Path property to "/" It just write the cookie when there is no
cookie present, but when I try to update the cookie (or overwrite the cookie)
it doesnt change it.My requirement to supply the path to "/" because ASP.NET reads it. If I write the cookie without supplying the path, the ASP.NET pages are unable to
read the cookie.

View Replies View RelatedWriting To A Log File Using ASP On IIS
We have an existing ASP app that is doing a very simple form submission to an Access db. So it opens a connection does a write and closes the connection.
The problem is that every other form submission is failing because of an "Unspecified Error" - according to our IIS web server log.
I have 2 things I'd like help with.
1) Writing to a log file:
I'd like to write to a log file (either the web servers or a different one) from the server side code within the ASP app. So, once the code opens the DB connect I would like to know it was a success. Once it writes, I want to see the string its trying to put in, etc...
How would I do this in our ASP/IIS environment?
2) Catch errors:
If I'm opening a db connection to this access db, how can I be sure the connection is a success? does a value get returned that would indicate success/failure? if so how do I capture it?
I'm speaking of some type of try-catch system.
is there another approach I should be taking to debug this problem?
Writing ASP Files Using ASP
I have been playing with an idea that generates ASP files using an asp document and the file system object, so far it is doing great except one thing, when I have a chunk of text and I need to include an asp bracket ("<%" or "%>") regardless of being within the "quotation" marks the active asp document assumes it is a part of its own code and the script errors.
To get around this currently I am writing brackets like this "[<]" or "[>]" and then swapping them out of the generated ASP page using dreamweaver after creation.
The question is: Does anyone know how to represent asp brackets within a string being processed using asp??? Code:

Writing Hyperlinks
I'm writing a company intranet site,and on the home page,I'd like there to be links to some of the software that the employees frequently use on their own computer.This will be the inducement to get them to use the intranet home page as their default home page, and visit it frequently.
For example a program which is under:
"C:Program FilesNow SoftwareNow Up-to-DateNUD.exe"
if I write that link into the hyperlink,it will not work,because the hyperlink also adds the url as a prefix to the link, so it will say
"http://www.url.com/C:Program FilesNow SoftwareNow

set file = fs.CreateTextFile(path & newFileName & ".htm", true)

Writing From Same Line In FSO
I'm using the folowing code to search through a text file using FSO and only response.write the lines that start with "Flow": Code:
Do While f.AtEndOfStream = False
If left(f.Readline,4) = "Flow" Then
response.write f.ReadLine
End if
Loop
after I evaluate a line with the If statement it moves to the next line so I'm always writing the line after the one I want. How do I get away from this?
