I have learnt how to use some aspects of php. But have got a little stuck on databases. Are there some easy examples to follow from the internet on how to modify databases in asp?
Is asp very similar to php? In the sense that you can achieve the same things with it?
is there an online dictionary that I can use to learn asp? especially one that can be kept and stored offline(I am not on the internet at home)
Is there a way to see if 2 fields are similar.. for instance:Code:
If rsHomeT("TeamName") [IS SIMILAR THING HERE???] (rsHomeT("CustomHomeName")) Then Response.Write " & CustomHomeName & " Else Response.Write " & HomeTeamName & " End If
I dont want to use LIKE in my sql queries to be able to do this.
I'm developing with CF 5 and SQL Server 2000. I think they are both great products. The major draw is their cost. I don't develop stand alone products because anyone that wants to purchase them must also purchase CF Server and SQL Server. So I run them as a hosted service.
MySQL is supposed to be free. If you are using this product, how do you like it? What are you using for a front end?
I'd like to move toward developing software that some one can run on their own webserver with the only cost being the software purchase. That means the database and front end software need to be free (MySQL, PHP, CGI). If the customer doesn't have these, they can download them for free or small fee. What are some feasible alternatives to CF and SQL Server?
Is ASP Apache comparable to ASP or ASP.NET? Everything will run on a Lunix Server to keep cost down.
I'm trying to query my database and return partial matches of a book title field...how do i go about doing that? Like if they enter "Gatsby," i want it to return, among any other titles with the word Gatsby in the title, "The Great Gatsby."
Is it possible with 'classic' ASP to find out the SERVER_SOFTWARE of a remote server. I wish to have a form where people can enter their domain name and then have a page that based on the form post determine what type of hosting the domain is using.
Every virtual directory above mentioned , has the same content with littles differences but not important for cookies or for the structure of my applications.
When I enter in my application I set up in my cookies my language and my profile informations.
I set up the cookies with an expires date and I set the cookie value with a response.cookies("lid")=VARLINGUA (VARLINGUA is an application variable that I have recorded in global.asa).
There is a problem with cookies when I open more of the above virtual directory at the same time or when I din't have cleaned my cookies in my temp files.
After my debug I have understood that my cookies are recordered correctly in my temp files (testAc , testBc ,testA etc....) and they contains the right content, but when I try to read my cookie with the request.querystring I read the double content of my cookie(In my case I have found 2 info about language and 2 info about my profile).
It is possible for you that I read the correct cookie but there is also another value in memory.
I think that IIS has problems to read cookies in virtual directory with similar names. I have this doubt because renaming my virtual directories with various(not similar for example testAc I have called Actest, testBe I have called Betest etc...) I do not have more problems.
I'm building a site which runs on 4 templates, each a different colour. I would like to pull in different content into each template using ASP.NET, similar to the php version of index.php?page=content.
I've not programmed in ASP before so am hoping someone can either supply me with a script or point me in the right direction.
I have a problem with displaying data from a database where text is written in slovenian and in czech. The accents aren't displayed. What can I do to display all the accents in Slovenian and Czech?
A word in the database: prijímání (f) Displayed on my ASP page: prijímání (f) (the accent at r is missing)
My database is a Access-2000-database. All the accents are displayed in the database.
I really want to build mine using classic ASP as this is the language my trusted friend has a talent for.This seems to make sense in the short term. However I worry about the lack of social networking sites built with ASP.
There must be reasons for this. So plan to recode using PHP and transport existing database across once I have earnt enough from the website to pay for the services of a qualified person.Is this plan sensible, should I stick with my friend and ASP OR should I code with PHP from the start?
I have built a couple using a little ASP code for example the 'include' comand. The server I am using obviously supports ASP but I want to move to another host but they dont support ASP.
What other language would be similar to ASP. The new hosting site supports cgi, php and ruby. I know nothing about any of these. I may want to be able to access a database in the future or add a message board to a site so the language needs to be a bit interactive.
I'm looking for the best solution, for example, I don't know if it's better to have all the text in the page in all languages and then select it with a querystring:
page.asp?lang=1
And in the code:
lang = CInt(Request.QueryString("lang")) If lang = 1 Then ' xhtml for language 1 else ....
I don't consider this a good solution, it's a nightmare to update.Maybe storing text in a database? XML? I would like to hear your suggestions and opinions about best methods.
how to have multiple language asp pages? For example, you have a database driven website that you want customers around the world to use. How do you setup the asp pages so that it is easy to change the text based on where the user is connecting from?
Since ASP server scripts use VBScript by default, does it mean it is redundant to put the following in ASP page? Then when do we need to use this? In client-side VBScript?
I have no idea what would cause this because my system setting is set to English and all of my other programs that use the date and time are doing it in English but my ASP seems to be giving me the date in Italian For example..
WeekDayName(WeekDay(Now())) = venerdě instead of Friday.
I have some dynamic pages like asp files and the data comes from database. What I need is to display the page content to diffrent languages. Suppose user selects Germany and the page content changes to german language.
What's the best way to toggle two different language on the web site using asp. Some web sites seem to store html links in database and call it on demand. Please advise and show the best way to program it.
I want to make a website both in English and in French, I dont know how to design the database (same for both ) or different.
Can anyone of you suggest me how can i make a website for more then one language. The two versions of the website will have both the graphics and contents different and there is a search option too.

My set of .NET 2003 CDs has 2 .net cds; 1 prerequisite cd; plus msdn. I get to a certain point in the installation and it prompts me for the English Lanaguage CD and I don't know what this is. I bought the set from someone who didn't want them any more - did I not get one of the CDs?
seems like alot of things in ASP VBSCRIPT dont have equals in ASP JAVASCRIPT. tryign to do a lowercase on a string "101:121:212 ABCA" so it becomes "101:121:212 abca"
LCASE doesnt work , get error so i assume its not in the JScript version of ASP.
I want to watermark images already on the server, on the fly as they're being called. I've found some PHP scripts that do it but I need them in an ASP environment using either VBScript(preferred) or Javascript. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
I'm sort of trying to force my way through some manuals and w3schools trying to pick up asp. i'm farmiliar with PHP so i figure it will be a breeze there's just one general theory idea i don't understand. if ASP can be written with either javascript or vbscript. then is ASP just adding the <% %> tags around the code?
something like "Session.Timeout" or "response.write" this doesn't look like VBScript to me. are these elements of ASP, VBScript, or something else?
I hope you can understand my question.I'm sort of confused with the languages / where to look to find information because i dont know what to look for.

Iam working on a search that needs to fetch words from other languages for any given word entered in english. I use an access database to store the english words and its equalent words in other languages. For example:
When i search for chinese equalent of Invoice (or any other word), the retrieved result is?.
I see that ASP allows you to specify the scripting language of your choice - including (if you get the COM object) PERL, REXX and more. That seems pretty good, I think.
Out of the box, it supports VBScript and JScript.
The question is (and I know that personal preference will come into this) what would you choose to use out of JScript and VBScript? Does one actually have more capability than the other?
I am currently creating a multi-language site using ASP .NET and was wondering what people think the best way to do this. Keeping a session variable of the users's choice? Cookies?
