I have an ASP app that allows administrators to add articles to a database for viewing by the public. What I want to do is display a summary of the article and give the user the visitor to the website the option to click "more..." to view all of the article.
I'm having a problem in displaying a selected option from the drop down list in words. But after I selected an option, nothing is being displayed, I think the value can't be passed at all. Please let me know how to fix it.
<td align=center width=20%>Fruit: <select name=""FruitName"> <% " If not myRS.eof Then while not myRS.eof %> <option value="<%=myRS.fields("ID")%>"<%If FId = myRS.fields("ID") Then response.write "selected"%>><%=myRS.fields("FName")%></option> <% myRS.MoveNext wend %> </select>
<p>The fruit you have selected is <%=FruitName%></p>
I would like to have a text box where people can type a word they want and then click on a button to get the description of that word.The way I see it working is if the word they entered in the box is in my database a page will display the meaning corresponding to the word in the database. However if it is not then it will display a message telling them that.
I need to populate a select form input (combo box) with about 22,000 rows of data. This is taking an unacceptable amount of time to load. And this data is only going to grow in the future.
I'm using a stored procedure to get the data. Not sure if that's the most efficient. I'm using classic asp. I'm open to any suggestions because I'm not even sure where to look to get options.
i have a textbox that has a value $6.00 for example the user has to enter a dollar value which has to be less then $6.00 so for example if the user enters 4.00 an alert should be fired telling him he has forgotten his dollar sign ("$") then when he enters it properly like this $5.00 i have to check the value is less then $6.00 and it has to be done in javascript
the textbox which holds the $6.00 value is called saleprice the textbox which holds the $5.00 or value less then $6.00 is called userprice
I've been working on a script that finds and updates a record in database based on the user's input. When I try it I get this error:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0113 (0x80004005) The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. Yo can change this limit by specifying a new value for the propert Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administratio tools.As I can't post a message for some reason whenever I try to include m script in this message, see attached .txt file for code.
I am using couple of dropdowns on a form which pulls data from one of our tables.
The data list is quite large (500+) and it takes users a lot of time to find the correct item. Users are getting quite frustrated using the dropdowns as they have to scroll for a long time.
I have three text boxes. One text box holds a beginning date, a second holds an end date, and the third box holds the number of days in between. I would like the page to figure out the number of days in between the two dates without having to type in the number of days.
Is that possible to do without having to use some kind of confirmation page. I mean using a confirmation page would work also, but I wanted to cut out the number of steps that a user needs to complete the assigned task.
Text Box 1: Beginning Date Text Box 2: Ending Date Text Box 3: Number of Days in Between
Is there a way to limit the number of characters shown from a db field on a web page. In other words, instead of showing the entire title of a work order, I may only want to show the first 30 characters followed by .... Does anyone know how to do this?
I have been writing a photoalbum in ASP and I am trying to receive an undetermined amount of files.
A more detailed explanation:
The client side (Javascript) generates a new file upload box as soon as the file in the first box is selected...the name of the file upload boxes is bestand[] so that the input is received in an array.
Now I am trying to receive all the files with ASP and store them on the server....
I am looking to return the first 50 characters from a database field. Does anyone know if there is a SQL function that returns a defined amount of characters from a database field?
This is my first asp form so please be gentle with me It's a publications ordering form. I've got the form and the asp code setup, when the form is sent the name of the publication comes through but not the amount ordered - i'm sure i've made a simple mistake somewhere - can anyone spot why the order amount isn't coming through. Code:

let's say that I want to highlight some words or even a square of a table in yellow...how would i go about doing that? What code would work to do what I need?
I have a database field that is a memo type. I would like to be able to only display the first 50 words from the database. I would like for it to show ..... after about 50 words.
I am using <%=Content %>. How do I trim this field to show only 50 words and then ....?
I tried the following code: Function LengthTrim(input, length) If Len(input) > length Then Return Left(input, length) + "..." Else Return input End If End Function
then <%= LengthTrim(Content, 50) %>
But it would not work. I got the following error message:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'Variable is undefined: 'Return' .
i am having trouble getting my REPLACE fn. to replace whole words only. basically, i'm running a 'spelling checker' fn. that uses the REPLACE fn. to find incorrect spellings and replace them. problem is, the fn. seems to replace all instances of a string, and not a whole word only as I intend it to be:
Code as follows:
StrInput = Request.Form("BKM_Search") StrInput = LCase(StrInput) 'convert all to lowercase StrInput = Trim(StrInput)'trim all empty space b4 & after string StrCorrect = Replace(a_StrWrong, a_StrRight,1,1,1)
Let's say I want to replace the word "sea" with "ZZZ" only:
Example input: "Sean has some neat sea shells" Example output: "ZZZn has some neat ZZZ shells"
I have to develop a spell checker from scratch using asp language. as i'm a newbie with asp, there are still a lot of things that i don't understand. How can I add new words to my list of dictionary sorted alpabetically?
Do i need to use the database for this function? Can anyone show me? or if anyone knows of any websites that i can refer to.
strTemp="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed"
and I am searching the string for another string 'amet', for example. How would I go about getting my page to output the word I search for and say 10 chars to the left and 10 to the right? So, in this case, I'd like to be be able to search the string with any other string ['amet' for example] and have it output this:
wondering if its possible to have some kind of searched word highlight! IE. every thing it throws up in return of search it will highlight why it has brought it up! so if search "a" all "a" in return results would be highlighted.
is it possible (i heard u can replace) to filter out bad words using regexp? I'm using Replace() but it sucks without ALOT of extra code... but using regexp it seems better, with ignorecase, etc.
