this is an asp/ javascript question.Say I have a variable in asp.
dim myVariable = "hello big boy"
How can I get JavaScript to read the contents of that variable?can I use it straight away?
<script language="javascript">
document.write(myVariable);
</script>
Or is it more complicated than that?
I would like to read the dynamic contents of an asp page and set these in a variable.
In php I can do it with the help of include, but include is not exactly the same in asp.
Any clue?
I'm attempting to read from a text file and output the contents into one variable that I can write to the page later. I can't Response.Write the thing because of the way our system is designed. Here's the code I got so far:
<%
set objFSO =server.createobject("scripting.filesystemObject")
path = "E:******************" & session("ENTRYPAGE") & "content.asp"
path = replace(path,"www.","")
set objstream = objFSO.opentextfile(path)
do while not objstream.atendofStream
lineText = objstream.readline
lineText = lineText & lineText
loop
response.write linetext
objstream.close
%>
All I get for output is the last line of the text file twice.
Note: The content.asp that I'm trying to load in does not contain any ASP. All of the content is HTML.
I was looking for a method to store the contents of text file within a variable. So far I am able to read the text file and output the results using the write method. Going a step further I also wanted to replace a particular string within those same results using the "Replace" function. This works as well.
My question, how can I store the final result that write's to the screen so that I can reference it later. If you run this code, I basically want to take the verbiage that displays on the sreen and place it into a variable. Code:
This thread is not so much a big problem, but more to receive comments on my approach. You may have some other tips or advices of where to go or where absolutely not to go with my attempts. Code:

I have two fields: first name and last name and then submit button.
When i hit submit button ,according to the name entered in the first field ,some results are displayed from database.

How do i do this?
I dont want to basically clear the form contents on submit.
I am currently working on ASP. Users will input their contents into a textarea. The problem is that when they input and I retrieve them from the database, they will use the textarea space that was allocated to them and display exactly it is.
For example the text area given is 500px and i only give the display part of 250px. Despite that, it will fill up and scrollbars will appear on my bottom of the webpage and have to scroll to the right.
how i can display all text with the break lines in between yet still confined to the space of 250px.

View Replies View RelatedIs there a way to export the DataTable contents to an XML file.
View Replies View RelatedI have worked in PHP / MySQL. But never worked in ASP/MSSQL. At the moment, i ma stuck with a problem. Hope someone here can figure it out.I have a list of countries in a Page. When the user MOUSE Over any Country, through Javascript, a small layer <DIV> appear that shows some data about that country. Up till now that XML File is filed MANUALLY.
Now that Data is changing frequently. What we want is that to do the same thing described above through database. Like when the user mouse over any country, that will load XML and connect the Database, extract info and then show in the same DIV layer. Or alternatively, there might be some sript, that will RUN AUTOMATICALLY daily or weekly and update all the countries data XML files. please guide me how to achieve this in ASP + MSSQL + XML + Javascriptor any combination of these.
I'm trying to access and iterate through POST variables. I'm thinking of something similar to PHP, where on a submit it creates a POST object, which is an associative array of all the variables. Is ASP the same way? Is there any way to see what is in the array and have access to it's contents without knowing the contents beforehand?
The reason I ask is because I have about 100 check boxes, and the user only checks a number of them - each check box is named differently. I want to, on the post page, to find out which ones were checked, short of putting an if else or select to check all 100 of them. Is there an easier way? I tried printing out the post: Response.Write(Request.Form()), and all that gave me was the querystring .
I am developing a website and in particular, a shopping cart for the company I work for and I have everything working fine. This website is written in ASP. When you add a product to the database, it adds it along with a UserID based on a Session variable.
Everything is working fine regarding the user functionality of updating particular product quantity and options. However I am having trouble finding any information on how to send the contents of that recordset via email, when the user decides he is ready to send it. I have no trouble sending forms and such via CDOSYS and ASP but how can I send the contents of an entire recordset?
I'm trying to compare fields in two recordsets. I'm having fun with apparently empty fields. In order to avoid displaying meaningless messages, I need to know what is in these fields - e.g. is it a space, a null, an empty string, or what?

the code essentially - is supposed to - go through the session variables and remove every one that doesn't being with "user_" or "customer_". So when i try this out, it goes through and removes some, but not all of the session variables in question.
run the script 3 more times and then they are all gone. So i inserted a bunch of response.write statements and found that not ALL of the session variables were even being tested. Can anyone offer explanations as to why?
