I have a column in my Access db that stores a number which is supposed to be seconds. How can I convert the seconds to display mm:ss on my ASP page? For instance, if the number in the db is 300, I want it to display 5:00 on my page.
Now these are lengths of time, not current time (AM or PM), so I dont want it to display the AM or PM. I've tried format(rs("length"), "nn:ss") and that didnt work. Matter of fact Format(), FormatDateTime(), and FormatNumber() doesnt work on my page. I've been getting the 800a000d Type Mismatch error. What am I doing wrong? Code:
I need to convert seconds into time since for a message board application.
"minutes ago, hours ago and days ago" etc.
I have capture the time of the original post and compared it to the time now getting seconds but having a little trouble working out the seconds into time. Have used calculations (/60 minute), (/3600 hour), and (/86400 hour) but the time remaining is bugging me.
Has anyone come across a system for tracking meeting minutes written in ASP? I have searched quite a bit on the web and I haven't come up with much. It looks like I will have to write my own unless someone has any ideas.
I am trying to make an access control where a code should be available for 60 minutes. When my user is login on I am doing this, after his access code has been authorized:
Session.Timeout=70 Session("Time")= Dateadd("n","65",now()) And in the pages where is allowed (for one hour) I am doing this:
if cdate(Session("Time")) < cdate(now()) then Session.Abandon end if
Does it look correct or is there a better way of doing this?
I want to create a 20 minute loop to generate an include file based on the html output of another file on a remote server. Is this possible using ASP? If so, how do you generate an application to check something every 20 minutes?!
and what i want to do is compare the difference in seconds between the two. But I'm struggling and the thought has crossed my mind that DateDiff only works with dates not times...
Code:
<% Dim DateToCompareTo DateToCompareTo = 4/10/2005 1:00:00 PM %>
There are <%= DateDiff("s", Now(), DateToCompareTo) %> seconds left %>!
Is there a way to response.redirect to a url within 5 seconds or something, so its not right away? I was thinking meta refresh, but everywhere I go online it says that meta refreshes are not a good idea.
not returning the "seconds" portion of time. It writes the date and time - but only to the minute. The seconds are 00 each time. Ex. 1/29/2005 1:47:23 PM is what I want and 1/29/2005 1:47:00 PM is what I'm getting.This is the result I'm getting on two separate DB's on two different servers. I'm sure there's some glaring problem I'm overlooking because I sure can't see it.
I'm trying to set up an asp script that redirects a user after a few seconds on a page- I cant use meta tags to redirect due to the page structure.does anyone have any similar scripts they could share?
What is the best way to do an ASP/sleep for 8 seconds (pause script for 8 seconds)? I have tried the following:
EndTime = Now() + (8 / (24 * 60* 60)) '8 seconds Do While Now() < EndTime 'Do nothing Loop
But unfortunately that keeps the CPU at 100% for that time. I need something that doesn't impact the CPU, as this delay will be in a while loop that will execute continuously for a few days.
I'd like to find the time difference in seconds in my ASP-code, but can't find how to do this. In php you have the time() that give the seconds from 1.1.1970 (?) until now. Is there something like this in ASP too? I have found the DateDiff that one just gives days, right? I basicly want to have two variables, time1 and time2, and show the seconds between them.
I have a simple calendar scipt that ask for time of event input. While I like the time feature I do not like the fact that it displays with seconds included.
Ex. Displays HR:MIN:SEC 5:05:30 PM
Desired display 5:05 PM
How do I get rid of the display showing seconds? I have changed the database format, but this does not seem to effect the disply on the asp page.
The code to show how long it took the page to generate in seconds ?!?, if you get onto the main page of this site, www.tgplus.net and loom at the left had side, it tells you how long it took the page 2 generate.
Been playing with the function DateDiff, and with it it's easy to calculate the difference in years/months/days between two dates. However, if i wanted to calculate the difference in Years, Months, Days, Hours, Seconds (a la Ebay bids) how can I do this? Is it easy or complicated?
I need to get the number of seconds when subtracting two date/times. With the code I am using below I subtract the two date/times and end up with a total of days like "1.56".
Then when I multiply it to get the number of seconds I am not getting an accurate number. I should only have whole numbers of seconds with nothing past the decimal point. I would like to be able to subtract the two date/times and get the number of seconds without multiplying to get it. Is this possible? Does anyone have a better more accurate way to do this? Code:
I am using two fields on a form to capture time someboby is working. The fields are hours and minutes. How can I when submitting to the db take both fields and convert them to a single field in the db as minutes?

My data input page uses a id generator which includes dashes, and the corresponding column in the db is set up as varchar to handle that. There is a problem, however, when the value in the varchar column is compared to the string from the URL, and the following error message occurs:
"Syntax error converting the varchar value '071-213' to a column of data type int."
<%strSQL = "SELECT * FROM AMS where MinutesID = " & Request ("id")%>
Would it be possible to CAST the request string to varchar?
