I'm writing an ASP page where the user can specify criteria for an online report that might take so long to generate as to justify rather sending the result as a CSV file by email.
I'm looking for ideas / best practice to manage the request for the CSV.
What I already have is ..
1. The ASP form that collects the report criteria.
2. An MTS object that receives these criteria and builds a matching recordset, and parses the results into a report (HTML format/CSV/whatever).
3. Also, the MTS object uses CDONTS (NT4 server still) to prepare an email and attach the parsed report as a file.
The problem is: when the user requests an email, I want control to immediately return to the ASP page so that the report can be prcessed and emailed in the background. Otherwise, what's happening now is that the user has to wait for the whole recordset to be processed and emailed, before the ASP page returns control to him!
What I don't want to do is: go and write a record to a database table, which some sort of polling app will pick up separately and generate the email ....
I am building a website in ASp and i want to Create a form with two drop down lists; one for background colour, one for font colour. I want the User to be able to set the colour of both using drop down list and press submit.
TBut I want the form to submit to a separate page which should then say "Your settings have been applied" and the background and font colours will be the ones the user had selected from the drop down list. Code:
I have created a cfm for my website and what my problem is that when it comes to uploding an image in the site i have to manually do it through a ftp program and than write the link in the admin section of the site in the form where i submit than it displays the new image or images.
but i would like to do it so the administrator can click on browse than attach the image and than when submited the image gets uploaded in the choosen folder and the file path is writen in the database (access). is this possable? i have an insert form that has the form to submit and i have created the insert prossersor page that contains the SQL statement that prosessos the form.
Does anybody knows is there any kind of asp mail script (CDO prefered) that will, when i send newsletter, send back to me confirmation from server that email has arrive?
i already create a code to request all fields from a previous page form using the next function y separate the fields with the value of each one. Code:
Why does the error below occur whenever the statement Request.BinaryRead Request.TotalBytes) is executed for uploads larger than 100K? I thought the 100K limit applied only to Request.Form. This does not occur with smaller uploads. This is running on an IIS 6 server with full FP2002 extensions.
when the asp page is Request("txtName").i can use "testpage.aspx?txtName=User1" to post the value.but when i use Request.Form("txtName").i cannot use that method,what can i do to solve that problem.(as i cannot modifty the request.form syntax but i need to post data to that web page, is there any method so that i can pass that parameter?)
Im running a simple mail system program which emails newsletters to a database list of 3000+ users.
The program loops through a database containing the emails and sends them out using ASPEmail.
My question is, is there some way i can validate each email address so that if there are invalid characters e.g. the space in "blah @blah.com" it will skip the record and continue the loop.
At the moment i have a working program however, whenever the program comes across an invalid email address it stops at that record and prevents the program from emailing any further.
I am having a problem formatting an email message which comes from a form.
I am currently having difficulty with the <br> tag which I am using for line spaces within my email. I am getting an expected statement error message which is pointing to the line which is underlined below. I can't think what is causing this.
1. I want users to type in their email address on a textfield, and after users press the "Submit" button. The info will automatically go to another person's email to receive a compliment, suggestion, etcetera.
2. Another is how to include the message written on a textarea of a form with the ASP code supplied below: Code:
how to write to check verification valid email thru nslookup or mx record or dns record. Is it possible to do that. Is there any tutorial from sitepoint, previously found it but i lost the link.
example to check assume test@domain.com is not a real email, abc@domain.com is real email how do u check it.
Just starting to play with scripts, and need a little guidance. I want to check to make sure that the email addresses users enter in a form are identical before it will allow them to submit. here's what i have:
the variable for the second email address is EmailFrom2
'validation Dim validationOK validationOK=true If (Trim(EmailFrom)="") Then validationOK=false If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("emailerror.htm?" & EmailFrom) If (Trim(Name)="") Then validationOK=false If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("nameerror.htm?") If (Trim(CityState)="") Then validationOK=false If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("citystateerror.htm?") If (Trim(SchoolName)="") Then validationOK=false If (validationOK=false) Then Response.Redirect("schoolnameerror.htm?")
Set myMail=server.CreateObject("CDO.Message") myMail.Subject="subject" myMail.From="me" myMail.To=request.form("email") myMail.TextBody="hello" myMail.Send set myMail=nothing
this script sends emails to some addresses but not others--and its based on the email service it's sending to. for instance, hotmail email addresses get the email, but mail.com email addresses dont get the email. i have tried sending it to other email hosts, too, and still, some work, some don't. what is going on here?
Dim Mail Set Mail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.Newmail") mail.From = "abc@hotmail.com" mail.to = "xyz@hotmail.com" mail.subject = "Test Email Subject" mail.body = "This is Email body message" mail.send
Now the question is that this code will use the Default Virtual SMTP Server in IIS, but I want to use my ISP's SMTP server. please tell me how to do this. I have used my ISP's email server in Outlook express and it is working fine. Please do not suggest to use "CDO" or "CDOSYS" to use for sending emails because I must have to use "CDONTS".
I am developing site in asp where I need to call a url at every interval. Is there a way to automate this. I want to call the url every 15 or 30 mins.Cureently I have written a asp script tp call it using
Set objWinHttp = Server.CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1") objWinHttp.Open "GET",URL objWinHttp.Send ' Send it. strResponse3 = objWinHttp.ResponseText ' Get the response string from the object.
But it is not schedule..I can call it only when I rum the asp script. So is there any way I can schedule this url call for every 15/30 minutes. Also forgot to mention : the site does not have that much traffic that I can add it in index page...there may be a user visiting the site in 5 hours time or within next 5 mins or for next 2 days there may be no visitor.
I have a form which shows all Records from a database eg. select * from sometable
the user inputs criteria in a form on the sam page and submits it. i need to see if the form has been submited. and the way to do it is to see if i have 'Request.form(somefield)' and then refrase the sql into something like
select *from table where something=this and somethingelse=this my problem is that i have to check every form field to see if it has been set(not empty).Is there a way to see this without checking every form field?
I created a ASP which has a form as well. The form has a list box.On the click of the submit button I wanted to just display the contents selected from the list box.
When in the VB script part I say dataString = Request("Data_List"), (where Data_List is the list box id) it gives me an error message saying "Object Required. Request"
I tried it with the text box also. It gave me the same message.
I have use many request already but this time i really don't know how. Here is my problem, I use Request("var1") to request the form that i have submit it and it always nothing. but when I use Request.form to show all, it appear all include that variable too. And the web server is IIS 6.0 with windows 2003.
