i am wondering how to actually get the month in letters..... i have used a
strMonth = Month(Date)
but it is returning a number of the month... i would like to make this the actual month such as January, August, etc.... how would i go abt doing this in ASP.....
So i am inserting Now() or Date() (Either one will work for what i want), into one of my fields.
But it is returning the Server time, which is about 17 Hours behind of what i want. Is there anyway to insert Australian time, as in where i am situated?
if there was a function in ASP that checks a date to see if it is valid or not. I am aware of the IsDate function, but I think its not what I'm looking for. I want to run the following date through a function and have the function tell me that it is
invalid: 31-Feb-2003 (cos there is not 31 days in Feb).
Or a good way to make my own function?
I have a column in my SQL server database table by name request_generated_date of datetime datattype and the default value set to it the server date by using the function getdate().
I am querying this table wherein I want to check that when a user submits a form then it should check the following: the submit date (column:request_generated_date in the tabel)should be less than the server date + 24 hours (or one day). When I am writing the query as
where request_generated_date ='"&dateadd('d',1,date())&"'"
but the result set is empty.Can I use the date() function in ASP or not. or should I try to remove the time factor from the server date and then query the column.
On a form I have
Date_Start Date_End
I have a new
Date_Start1 Date_End1 which the use
inputs.
I need to validate that Date_Start1 and Date_End1 are a date range entirely separate from Date_Start and Date_End i.e. no overlapping whatsoever. In effect checking a date interval.Are there any functions out there already written that can do this? It seems to basic to start comparing and contracting dates! Would like to do it in Javascript, but happy in vbscript also.
I am developing a simple booking system where I had a booking date. The problem is I want to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced for certain room.
I have tried to use DateDiff but it seems doesn't work. Actually i just 1 to make sure that the user must book 3 days in advanced from the current date. I am wondering whether there is anything goes wrong in my datediff function. Code:
I have a file i created
it contains several functions, and some other code to build a string based on diffrent vars.If i run this file standalone, it works absolutly fine. However the problem comes when i include it half way in another script.

This is line 2

I am searching for a function that can separate a string var to some string vars and devide the string by "," marks, os this possible?
example:
str1 = "2,34,1,54"
and I want "2","34","1" and "54" be devided and inserted into new vars, or an array var, is their a VBscript function for this?
I have made a function myself that does this using ths Instr and the Mid functions, but its quit messy and I don't wan't to have to insert it in every page I make, Any Ideas?

I've written the following function but somehow the output is not what I want it to be. Can someone explain to me what i'm doing wrong?
function fn_piping(inputWaarde)
outputwaarde = inputwaarde
Response.Write outputwaarde & "<BR>"
if i = 1 then
i = 2
call fn_piping("thisshouldbethefinaloutput")
else
fn_piping = outputwaarde
end if
end function
i = 1
figure = fn_piping("bla")
Response.Write "<BR>" & figure
So 'thisshouldbethefinaloutput' should be the final output, but it doesn't output anything?!
I need a current record in the database for it to work but I have another page that uses this same code and it works fine on that and the only thing different in the coding is where the information is being pulled from in the database and when i first copied & edited the page it worked fine but now it doesn't and i've worked on it .....

View Replies View RelatedWhere's the best place for me to include all my functions that I want to call throughout different pages? Should I just put them all in one ASP file and include that page on every page? Or use global.asa somehow (how??)?

Over my years developing ASP applications and writing asp code in general I have created a library of nice little apps and functions that I use over and over again.
I was "thinking" about maybey setting up a site with all my useful functions, subroutines, and possibly applications for people to download and hopefully donate some money if they use them. Perhaps even have some apps for sale only.
The apps will mainly be my useful plugin developments such as guestbook, gallery, login system etc. My question however is do you think it would be worth the time and effort? Do you find yourself using plugins a lot?
I defo think the functions could be handy but again how many of you search for functions to help you out or indeed how many of you currently use functions you have gotten from other people? Would you donate something if you used them?
Mayby some of you have already done something like this and can let me know how you got on?
Didn't remember if anybody had started started like this, but I decided it would be cool to start it again. If you have a math function request ask it below, or if you have made one then add it:
I have a few cretegean plane (think thats how you spell it), calculations. One request I have is, does anybody have a short function for square root?
I have some code I am working on. One function reads a file using fso, then
I have multiple functions using the string read from the file. Each
function splits the lines up and will return one value.
Is there a better way? Is handling this many array which are basically the
same going to cause some server distress
I know there is the function IsNumeric() in ASP and we have a SUM function in SQL, but why don't we have the following functions in ASP:

Sum()
IsAlphabetic()
I have been developping a webpage in ASP for about 4 weeks now and I have noticed that I am rewriting similar functions in pretty much every page i make. So I was wondering if there is a way to make some particular functions global so that you can use them in any page. The functions will depend on the session id, but I don't know if i can declare session functions or not.
View Replies View RelatedIn this function i pass variables to it to find out if a record exists, what i want to do next is call this function and if a record does not exist pass a variable out like Statement = False and then pick up that value on the page that i call the function.
Can this be done? I was thinking perhaps using a Session? Code:
I'm a PHP programmer. That said, I recently began a job where a good third to half of the applications are written in ASP.NET. VBScript, to be precise. As I've done programming for years (C/C++, PHP, JavaScript, BASIC... the list goes on and on), picking this up hasn't been too difficult, but I now find myself facing a question that I simply cannot find an answer to anywhere:
Can one define a function that has optional parameters in VBScipt?
If not, can it be done in C#, and can C# code be easily integrated into pages written in VBScript?

Is it possible to perform functions on a recordset (rather than on the
source database), e.g. COUNT, MAX etc
The reason I would like to do this is because I have a hugely complex view
which produces results with over 60 columns of data. I would like to display
all data but also highlight individual "cells" in the table which have the
highest (i.e. MAX) data for each column. I would also like totals at the
bottom of each column.
Obviously I could get the MAX value for each column by performing it on the
SQL data but that would effectively mean running the query twice and would
take twice as long.
Basically, I have an asp application that uses a database connection,

can't get it to work. Is this not possible in classic ASP? Code:
