Writing Cookies From ASP With Spaces And Hyphens
I have an ASP (3.0, not .NET) app that writes cookies with hyphens and
spaces in the names and values. If I had the control over the apps that will
be looking for these cookies, I would eliminate the special characters, but
as it is, I do not have that luxury.
When I write the cookies, they seem okay in IE, but in Firefox, they are
strange. For example, the cookie name is US-NONUS, but in Firefox it looks
like US%2DNONUS. For a value of NEW HAMPSHIRE it comes out in Firefox as
NEW+HAMPSHIRE.
Please note that these strings are not created in any special way: They are
hard-coded into the ASP, with no encoding or anything like that.

writing cookies seems to be a no brainer, but for some reason, my temporary internet folder does not contain any of the cookies when run the pages. i am starting to think that it may be IIS 4.0. anyhow, these are the cookies that i writing:
<%
Response.Cookies("userInfo") = "quiz2.asp"
Response.Cookies("userInfo").Domain = "localhost.com"
Response.Cookies("userInfo").Expires = "August 31, 2004"
Response.Cookies("userInfo").Secure = True
%>

There are TONS of examples in how to do this. Thats all well and good. That would work for most people and thats great. What I need is the ability to write Client-Side cookies. I have yet to find someone who knows how to do this. Can someone impress me and show me code that writes Client-Side cookies?

Anyone know if this is possible? If so, on which page would the cookie be? .. On the page calling a function defined in the include file?

In my Session_OnStart in Global.asa, I am setting some cookies. One
of them, I set as follows:
dim UserID
UserID = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
Response.Cookies("User")("ID") = UCASE(UserID)
When I immediately log the cookie value retrieved from
Request.Cookies("User")("ID") into the Windows Event Log, I get the
correct value. However, when I try to retrieve the cookie on the home
page of my application using the same code,
Request.Cookies("User")("ID"), it either cannot find the cookie or
cannot read the value. I am retrieving the cookie before all HTML
headers are written. It is my first statement on the page after
Option Explicit. I have even compared the session IDs. The SessionID
created in the Session_OnStart is the same value as the SessionID on
the home page.
I have read that the Session_OnStart only has access to the
Application, Session and Request objects. It does not explicitly say
that it does not have access to the Response object. Also, I was even
able to use Response.Write's in Global.asa to print out the values
although it looked like it had also stopped the session after I did
so. Cookies are definitely enabled on my machine. I have even tried
setting the session cookie's expiration to be persistent for a few
days to see if it was perhaps expiring before I was able to read it
but this did not work either.
Is there something preventing cookies to be created in Global.asa in
the Session_OnStart sub? Is the Response object not available???
Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem or solution.

I have a problem with the following code :
Response.write rstContacts(1).Value
The above line prints "Andark Marine"
However the following only passes "Andark" and stops at
the space. How do I get over this ? Its the same with all
records.
Response.Write("<td align=center><a
ref=companycontacts.asp?Company=" & rstContacts(1).Value
& " target=_new><img src=imagescontact.ico width=25
height=25 border=0></a></td>")

I seem to have now been able to get ASP to write the full contents of a field with spaces in it by using:
Var_Myname = "'"&rs.fields("User_Name")&"'"
<input name="txtFname" type="text" size="25" maxlength="25" VALUE=<% = VAR_UFname %>>
that works fine but when I just do a simple Response.write(Var_Myname) I end up with something like:
'James'
I don't want these quotes, so the question is can I either correct the Response.write (don't really want to do that each time.or is there a way to ge the text boxes to do their bloody job propper.

I have the following in one of my asp pages:
....
Response.Write("<form action=createpst.asp method=post>" )
Response.Write("<input type=checkbox name=pstfldr value=" & myArray(i) & ">")
Response.Write("<a href = '" & strLink & "'>" & myArray(i) & "</a>" & "<br>")
Next
Response.Write("<br>" & "<input type=submit value=submit>" & "</form>")
%>
In my createpst.asp page I am trying to load in an array using the split function:
<%
Dim arrVals
arrVals = split(Request.Form ("pstfldr"), ",")
Dim i
For i=0 to UBound(arrVals)
Response.Write arrVals(i) & "<br>"
Next
%>
However, the problem is that some of my values that are read in from myArray(i) in the first asp page can be more than one word. So, when I get to my second asp page and traverse through the loop, some of the values stored that contain more than one word only output the first word.

I found this code on the net that will prompt a user to select open or save the file. If you run it, it will just prompt to download "whatever.doc".
The problem that puzzle me is when my filename have spaces e.g. "this file.doc", the code will replace "_" to the spaces. i.e "this_file.doc"
How do i maintain the actual filename? Code:

I am using ASP to read code from a text file that I am displaying on my
page. Because I do not want the code from the text file to be executed, I
used the Server.HTMLEncode() method to display it as it is in the file.
However, the spaces used to indent lines is still removed by the browser.
I
cannot use VBScript's replace function to replace all spaces with
because that would replace all spaces, including ones that I do not want
replaced as well as majorly increasing the size of my file. Is there any
way to display the spaces used to indent the lines without manually writing
a function to do it?

I have a View button that shows a database record of entries. At the end it has a delete link for each entry. When u click it, it passes the Address(like a house address) to a script that searchs the DB for the matching address.
The only problem is most address have spaces. I read somewhere about double quotes, or using single quotes or some combination, I don't remember.

I have some ASP pages that use ASPmail to generate emails containing infomation taken from an Access database (the info is selected from a random record, in a particular database field, and then inserted in the email text as a variable). When the emails arrive at their destination, they contain a random space. The position of the space is completely random. It can appear in the ordinary body text, or in the lines of text generated by displaying the contents of the aforementioned variables.
eg the line in the email may say:-
I am a line in an em ail.
or
I am another li ne in an email.
or
I am yet ano ther line in an email.
Sometimes the space appears in a hyperlink and causes it to fail.....

I'm trying to validate several fields using regular expressions and not sure how to allow spaces and special characters within the expression.
One field is for an address:
^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$
how can I allow spaces and special characters like a comma, number sign and periods. So, if some entered an address with a suite number or p.o. box where commas, periods and number signs can be used it would validate correctly. Right now, the expression is only checking for alfanumeric characters.
Another example is for validating a city field
^[a-zA-Z]+$
I need to allow spaces...i.e. San Diego, New York
