There are many articles and script samples that provide a work around to this problem by redirecting the visitor to another page that does the testing and bringing him back to the main page with the cookie test value in a querystring.
But that is too long a procedure. Is there no instant cookie test solution, either through components (not expensive ones) or through Javascript etc.?
I need help with setting up a page where the viewer has to accept terms before they can access the rest of the website.
The page will have a bit of text explaining why they need to accept oor decline the terms and then have 2 buttons. ie. accept or decline.
What I need to be able to do is set this up so that if the viewer tries to bypass the accept/ decline page they will get re-directed to it. If they have clicked the accept button then they can view anywhere on the site.
I understand that 'sessions' in IIS don't actually close until about 20 mins after the user has left the site and can live with that. But if they come back the next day they must go through the accept/decline page to get into the site. It doesn't have to have usernames or password, they just have to accept.
I understand that you set up several pages to do this, i.e. the accept/decline page, a 'checkterms' page (which sets the session cookie?) and then some code on every other page on the site to check for the presence of the session cookie and let you view if it is there. If not, redirects you to the Accept/Decline page.
The problem I have is I don't know what code to write and where to put it into the page.
If application deals with browsers that do not support cookies, then what I will have to use other methods to pass information from one page to another in your application in the ASP.
View Replies View RelatedI currently use a javascript routine to check what browser the user is using, but I'm trying to replace my client side code for server side as much as I can.
Does anybody have a good (and tight) routine to check what the browser is,eg IE, Netscape, FireFox, Safari, etc?
On a page optimised for IE, I'd like to check if the browser type is other than IE, so I can direct them to another page. How can I modify the code below to redirect to indextext.asp if they aren't using IE? I've tried changing the = for <>, but get a syntax error.
USER_AGENT = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")
IS_IE = InStr(USER_AGENT,"MSIE")
if IS_IE then
response.redirect "indextext.asp"
end if

View Replies View RelatedI have built a shopping cart and have reached the point where I need to create the payment page. At the moment I have a checkout page with all the customers details i.e name, address etc, credit card details, order total, product name etc as fields in an form. It is at this point that I am not sure what happens next.
I am using a windows server (www.7host.com) with an MS Access database. I would be grateful if some one could explain to me exactly how I use the variables to take the payment and also how the information is sent back from the bank once the order has been processed.
I have read a few articles, but they just don't give you the actual practical steps involved with the asp pages/database, instead they mention payment gateways /merchant accounts in general. It would really help me if someone could explain this one.

I'm pasing a zip code as a prameter to an Access stored procedure. In
Access the parameter is a text data type. It works for non-leading zero
zip codes but, apparently access (or ASP) is converting it to a value
first (dropping the zero) then sending that to my SP.
Even if I use cStr() to be sure the parameter is sent a string it still seems to drop
the leading zero. Any thoughts? Note: It needs to be a string for canadian zip
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.
Is it possible for a user to enable permanent cookies but disable session cookies.....this seems like a contradition yet this is what I appear to be

View Replies View RelatedI have a simple ms access database front ended with simple asp pages using ms front page. I used the wizards to put it all together and I can send data easily enough using forms. I can recall the data using the data base wizards but I can't seem to design it to update the data once it's been submited. I've played around using sql update statements and modifying pages... but I gave up in the end.

I have a website with a default webpage having an image. I am also having four(4) images.
I'd like when the user closes the browser and reopen it, it must load a new image.
e.g. The User open the browser for the first time - Loads Image1.
The User open the browser for the second time - Loads Image2.
The User open the browser for the third time - Loads Image3.
The User open the browser for the fourth time - Loads Image4.
The User open the browser for the first time - Loads Image1.
How do I go about doing that?
I know I can do this using JS but can I do it using Vbscript? I want to check if a browser is NS4 or lower and if so to display a certain stylesheet. If another other browser then display an alternative (more feature rich) stylesheet

We are trying to record browser information when a customer comes to our
site. I have been able to get most basic browser information using both asp
and asp.net. The only thing I’m missing is the ability to detect plug-ins.
Does anyone know how I can access the plug-in collection in IE? I have not
found any clear way of doing it on the internet I’m starting to think I am
headed down the wrong path. Maybe IE doesn‘t call it a plug-in collection?
I have a dynamic website system that my clients use to change their webpage
conten online. Sometimes the new change isn't visible right away to a
browser. I have the following in every webpage's <HEAD> section:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" CONTENT="0">
which on previous investigation was supposed to be a solution for this. All
I want is a definitive solution so that when a browser makes a call to my
server for one of my pages, everything along the line that has a cached copy
of the page is going to say "Aha! The browser wants the latest version of
this page! I'm going to pass this request up the line to see if their is a
more recent version instead of sending it my cached copy". (Yup, that is how
browsers and ISPs speak to each other). What do I have to do to my webpages
to ensure this happens? At the same time, I don't want it to be getting the
page all the way from the server if the page content hasn't changed. In
other words, I just want the cacheing to work properly!
Sorry if this isn't an explicit ASP question but no one in the HTML groups
I've tried has any idea what I'm talking about and I'm hoping that those who
frequent this room will have a better handle on the whole
client/server/caching problem and the solution!
I have heard there is something called a 'virtual browser' which allows me
