I'm trying to do a registration page with CC information. I created my registration on an unsecure server and want to redirect the user to my secure server after they register so they can put in their CC info.
How can I make an interim page that says "Thanks for your registration, now redirecting you to secure page" What kind of function should I use to delay the redirection for 5 seconds or so. I'm running ASP.net with vb.net backend.
I have a really long webform that has hundreds of text fields, text boxes, labels, etc. I would like a button, that when clicked, will populate either a .doc, .pdf, .rtf, etc. file in a nice, printable format (perhaps from a template?) with a 'Save File' prompt displayed to the user.
I don't know how to do this, but I can get the data from either the webform itself, or from the SQL database (which is where I'm populating the webform anyway). Simply clicking FilePrint from IE is not acceptable because we need a document that we can distribute electronically. How can I populate one of these file types from a webform or database?
As a trainer in a company, I launched a webform asking people to log
in before they can access the needed training. Nothing fancy and just
there for monitoring who comes in and when. Problem is that some
"nice-guys" enter who knows what - because that's fun. Can I
counteract this by having the ASP form sending me also the IP address
from the PC ? And where do I have to add these lines ? Code:
I have a MS Access database composed of a few related tables. I'm trying to link this with a website so that new data may be entered remotely via the website. I am using MS Frontpage, which has a simple wizard for this, but the wizard does not allow for updating multiple tables from the one web form. I have started learning ASP and VB, but all the books don't really discuss adding records to several related tables at one go. How do I do this?
Conceptually, I understand that you can't have a new record in the child table without a corresponding record in the parent record. It there a way of submitting several forms to the same record by 'indicating' which parent record each field is linked to? Is there a simple scripting code ? Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated, or just point me to where I might find the information I need?
Here's a question for you....probably a simple answer but I can't find
it....I have an ASP results page that is going to display test, tables, etc.
What I would like to do is to have some kind of delay between the pieces
that write on the page....in other words:
Response.write("Something Here")
Response.write("<BR>")
*** then the wait function (maybe 2 seconds)
Response.write("Next Piece")
Response.write("<BR>")
I have a page that allows a user to add a message for another user. They click the send message button, and then I would like to have a new page display that says the message has successfully been sent and then wait for around 5 seconds and then automatically take them to the next page. Is there ASP code that adds a delay or do I just need to code a loop that runs but does nothing?

How to put a server side delay using VBScript
View Replies View RelatedI have an asp page that calls a "sendmail.asp" page which displays something like "thank you for your request". I want the "sendmail.asp" to show for 3-5 seconds and then redirect back to the index.htm page.
I have put in a while loop in the "sendmail.asp" page; it waits and then redirects but it doesn't show the "sendmail.asp" page at all.
You can see in the task bar that its doing something, but redirects directly to the index.htm page.
I have an application which loops through several thousand subscriber
records, compares each subscriber's requirements to a database of
businesses for sale, and then prepares and mails off an email
containing info from the database that the client is interested in.
Problem is that the ASP file exits as soon as it has sent about 50 or
so records to the Mercury/32 mail server on the local Ethernet. No
error message or program execution issues noticed. I then delete the
first 100 or so subscriber records and set the file off again. In the
loop thru the next 100 subscribers it prepares an email for approx
every second subscriber, then seems to hit this 50 max limit and
terminates again. Driving me crazy.
I figure that somewhere there's a queue building up which maxes
something out and causes some low level termination. To test that,
I'd like to build something into the loop thru the subscriber file
that causes a delay of 10 seconds or so before the loop starts again.
Code:
Is there a method to make response.redirct delay for say 5 seconds.
View Replies View RelatedWhat 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 have a project that uses a frameset. On the pageload event one frame calls
an ASP.Net page that watches a message queue. The other frame has a page
that allows a user to submit queries. Through research I've discovered that
IE allows only two connections to IIS from any one client at a time. This is
okay since at any given time I can only have the AJAX thread and a page
request.
I noticed a problem today. If I introduce a session variable in any of my
server side code it causes every request to lock for 90 seconds before a
response comes back. After studying this behavior I am stumped. Is there an
extra thread being fired whenever session is used?
I have a IIS server somewhere hosting an aspx website. Whenever i tried
to access the website after some times, my browser will like wait about
10-20 seconds before showing the contents. But after that, subsequent
pages is load up almost instantly. The page is not heavily loaded and
every pic should be cached.
And sometimes, after 1 or 2 days didn't access the site, when i tried to
access again, it will never load up the page. My IIS server is never
shutdown running 24/7. I have to go to my IIS server and move around
with the mouse then go back to my workstation and try again in order for
it to work. (My IIS server (also my Internet gateway) will not go into
Sleep mode because i still can surf from my workstation.)
Is there any way to delay a response.redirect for say one or two seconds?

I want to use the instr function, but return results from it depending on surtain functions, I can't realy explain so I'll show my example:
I have a string in wich some word I want to find might be in diffrent Capital Letters order, I want the Instr function to return all the values of the place of that word (avcourse I'll run a for and increase the starting point of the Instr func until it returns 0). The instinct thought is to use the Lcase or the Ucase functions, but in this case I don't know how to use them. In the same Idea I wanted to use the Instr Func with the trim Func, But Its realy the same principle if I just understood how to do so.

View Replies View RelatedI know the basic difference between a subroutine and a function is a
subroutine performs a task and a function performs a task and returns a
value. The Call keyword is required when using parens with subs with more
than 1 parameters. Parens around values passed are ByVal vs ByRef and is a
waste of processing if passed ByRef for no reason.
I am told there is no reason to ever use a subroutine as a function can be
used even if it doesn't return a value. While this appears to be true, is
there any reason why it's ever a bad idea to use a function, instead of a
subroutine, that doesn't return a value? Are there memory, performance,
etc. issues?
I am trying to locate information on how to call a sub within VBScript on an
ASP page but I can't locate generic information. What I want to do is
generate a page that will stay up but the information on it will change
based on a series of drop down boxes. I need the first drop down box to call
a second dropped down box based on the state that is chosen then city and so
on.
