I'd like to have a variable that I assign a value to for an entire website. It's a variable that contains the DSN name for my ADODB Connection.
This variable value is necessary on every page on the website. Is it incorrect to assign a variable the value in global.asa so it just stays for the entire site?
Well, it's quite simple, it's easily done in C, but in ASP (and VB in
general) i haven't been able to see it done...
function setvalues(var1, var2="a", var3="b")
if var2="a" then
response.write("Var2 wasn't defined")
end if
if var3="b" then
response.write("Var3 wasn't defined")
end if
end function
I hope it makes sense, and that someone has the solution to it...
Is there a way I can assign a value of true or false to a VBScript variable? I have a function where I want to initiate a value of false: Would this work? Code:

How can I assign the result of a SQL-query to an ASP variable? This is what I have so far but it doesn't seem to work. Code:

strSQL="select TestID FROM TestID_Description WHERE CL1='" &Request.Form("CL1")& "' AND CL2='" &Request.Form("CL2")& "'AND CL3='" &Request.Form("CL3")& "'AND CL4='" &Request.Form("CL4")& "'AND CL5='" &Request.Form("CL5")& "'AND CL6='" &Request.Form("CL6")& "'"
objRS("TC_Number")=objConn.execute(strSQL)
Maybe it's interesting to know that TC_Number is the primary key of the table.
I have an ASP variable containing an XML object, i want to pass this object to a javascript object .... how can i do that?

I have a catalog of books which need to be categorized into different
groups. Some of the books can be listed under more than one category.
I'm creating a page where I can assign a group of books to a category
by checking the checkbox next to their name (say I've looped out 100
of them, and check some, and not others) then submitting the form for
processing, so that those titles where the checkbox is checked will
get the categoryid number assigned to them on a one-to-many table
I need to know how to read the checkbox value as it comes in if it is
selected or not, if it is, I'll send the isbn in one direction, and if
not, I won't send it at all.
So, how would I read this on the sheet that grabs the values?
I don't know if this is possible, but I have a Do While Not rs.EOF loop that is pulling values from a SQL database and writes it to an html form.

It works if there is only one order in the table but if you try and order again it multiplies the orders by the number of invoice rows for example if there was 3 invoice fields it would add the same order 3 times into the order table. Its got stuck in some sort of loop. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to put a condition in my Global.asa file based on the server

I have a site which until this morning, was on a remote server. The structure was that the "site" was actually a folder on the server, as I am designer and use this arrangement to develop sites. Under the root directory, I had modified the global asa file to include session variables. Ok, so I download the site (folder) to my hard drive, and put it in the folder of "MY Documents" called MyWebs. I then opened VB Studio and created a new solution, which is pointing to the before mentioned directory in My Documents. When I pull the site up in IE, the session variables were not being called, and I realized I had not copied over the asa file. So I did so, placing a copy of it in the hard drive's c inetpub wwwroot directory, and also directly in the my docs mywebs directory,and the site's directory as well. It seems it is still not being called.Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
View Replies View RelatedIs the Global.asa file resolved before parsing the 'Include' (files) or
after parsing the 'Include' (files)?
I have IIS 5.0 installed on for a test server. the global.asa file runs perfectly.
when tryng the same application on win server 2003 IIS 6.0 the global.asa does not fire. i have set the application as a virtual site and given rights for iwam and iusr. What else could be the problem. Code:
How does IIS 6.0 treat the global.asa file? I had the following problem;
1. uploaded a new site to the win3k server
2. had incorrect db connection string in Session_OnStart in global.asa and website caused errors.
3. Changed the global.asa file to include the correct details. Saved the file. Still got the same errors.
I could not resolve this unless restarting the WWW Service on this server. In IIS 5.0 the global.asa file would reload after resaving it (as the timestamp is updated).
I even waited the next day before restarting the service because I though Session_OnStart expires after my session ends...but the error was still there
in the morning.
Hopefully someone will make sense of it for me. Here is the code (I inherited) in the global.asa
Sub Application_OnStart
Application("DB.ConnectionString")= ""
Application("MaxLoginAttempts") = 5
Set Application("Con") = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Session("Test") = Now()
End Sub
Sub Session_OnStart....

View Replies View Relatedi'm a little bit confused with using application_onstart.. as u can see in the following code... my DB connection and SQL statements is currently included in my application_onstart event.. but, unfortunately, i wasn't able to reference Application("sUser") in my asp when i tried to run my website Code:
View Replies View RelatedWe have over 100 asp pages that reference a table (distribution_components). We added a new column and primary key to that table, so now we have to modify the where clause to include that column (we have to make the new column = to a session variable in the page)
The table appears 531 times in our code. Is there some util or method that allows us to change it globally, other than going to each occurrance, and adding the new column to the where clause.
Basically session_onend will not fire in my global.asa files! I have just made a very simple test to prove its not my programming and it still doesnt fire.
Session_onstart works a treat but onend will not work even if you force the session to expire with abandon. I have tried on 2 of our servers now and it doesnt work on either.
my simple test is this:
Sub Session_OnEnd
application("test") = "hello"
End Sub
Now surely that should work. i obviously have a page that writes that test variable to the page but its always empty.
Set IE 6.0 ver. X to "Block all Cookies" in privacy settings and try
this code in three separate files.
<-- Global.asa -->
sub Session_OnStart
response.cookies("test") = "-1"
end sub

<-- testcookie1.asp -->
<%Response.Redirect("testcookie2.asp")%>
<-- testcookie1.asp -->
<-- testcookie2.asp -->
<%=request.cookies("test")%>
<-- testcookie2.asp -->
I get "-1" on testcookie2.asp
Anyone else get the same result?
Why am I getting the cookie in this test?
