I've got a couple of strings I use to validate emails.
I have no idea what either of them do or what they mean! I found them, they work, so I use them!
Could somebody let me know what these mean? My guess is that the longer string is better, simply because it tests more thoroughly, but I could be mistaken.
Im running a simple mail system program which emails newsletters to a database list of 3000+ users.
The program loops through a database containing the emails and sends them out using ASPEmail.
My question is, is there some way i can validate each email address so that if there are invalid characters e.g. the space in "blah @blah.com" it will skip the record and continue the loop.
At the moment i have a working program however, whenever the program comes across an invalid email address it stops at that record and prevents the program from emailing any further.
I have been trying to use a function that checks that an email is syntactically correct (ie. it contains @ and .), however I have given up with the method I was trying - at the end of my tether I was. I would like something in the form of one of my other validation msgs below. Any ideas? Code:
Is there a way to validate a text box to make sure that the text field, which will house an email address, is in the proper format of name@domain.com/net etc?
hey. i have been trying to validate an email field within asp page. the problem we have is that the field accepts more than one @ and all the validation codes for email does not restrict the use of one @. we are using indexOf(), lastIndexOf() and .Length methods to work with the problem. we tried to substract the lastIndexOf from the length and compare it to the indexOf to verify that the first time an @ symbol appears is the same as the last one.
l = consumer.email.value.length; s = consumer.email.value.indexOf(at); a = consumer.email.value.lastIndexOf(at); if (s !== l-a) { err += "*Please enter a valid email<br>"; }
I'm trying to validate a form which sends an e-mail. This is the code which sends the e-mail but i want to know what code i need to validate particular fields of the form and link it back to the previous page (index.asp) if unsuccessful. Code:
I am trying to validate the email in a form and then insert them into a database. I try the validation and it works, however when I try to populate a database with the emails it works the first time, after that it gives me the HTTP 500.100 Error. Here is my code:
if there is a way to validate email addresses further. For example I just received an email from this person:-
cvx@fcxgf.fgfd
Obviously some fool trying to f**k with my form and send me a test email.
Because an array of countries have different extentions, can I not somehow validate for that?
I guess my validation is picking up on the @ symbol and the fact that some chars are needed before and after the @ symbol and a dot exists. But can we validate this further to prevent me getting this kind of email?
Create the following code from database but does not validate on enter - I am using ShadowWizards validation code.
<Input fields so work however I will need dropdown and radio buttons to be validated also.
I really like the work ShadowWizard has put in and would like to continue in the same neat, cleaver coded way!
I did validate the few fields with ASP but Yahoo toolbar stops people going back on forms and therefor would not work on all PC's, typically the bosses and now he seems to want it asap so any javascript solution? Code:
i am retrieving a record from the database, I am trying to place the value of the FULLNAME field in a textbox on a Form, the Problem is that it only displays half of the name leaving out the stuff that comes after a SPACE.
Example:
adors("fullname").value <--- Actual Value is John Smith but it only displays John Code:
SELECT * FROM NK_editie " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & " ORDER BY editie desc
And
SELECT * FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID ORDER BY editie desc
Now I want to combine those 2 to one string.
I have problems to set it up in working order. My tryout: SELECT * FROM NK_editie INNER JOIN NK_edities ON NK_editie.editieid = NK_edities.ID & " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & " ORDER BY editie desc
It shows al the records which are joined, only the second string " & MM_whereConst & " " & whereClause & " is not working.
I found out a really nice way to keep things on the same page is for any processing page to add on a "?<something>=<something>"
and then just check to see what the something is equal to, and the number represents what you want the front page to show.
However, this <something> shows up on the url listing in a browser. Is there anyway to .. encode it so no one can see it? Like a encode/decode function?
I'm building a forum, and right now i'm creating the ability to edit posts. As part of this i want to add the usual "Edited by UserName on Date" line at the bottom, but am having problems doing so.
The problems seems to do with formatting the text in the variable with <span>s using stylesheets, or if there are " and ' markes in the post proper (which I can't seemt to remove with Replace). Here's my code:
I am developing a website and it's going fine, but i've heard that you shouldn't have your database in the wwwroot, it should be outside/above that.
I've done this (i'm using Dreamweaver MX) so I moved the db, fixed my odbc/dsn, connection string etc, but when I upload now I get this error.
Microsoft JET Database Engineerror '80004005'
'C:Program FilesEnsimSiteDatawebpplianceconfdomainsInet pubwwwrootTesting_SiteDatabasesTesting_Website _DataSource.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides. /Testing_Site/default.asp, line 8
This is line 8: Recordset1.ActiveConnection = MM_TestingConnection_STRING
Is there something that I have missed. It was ok when it was in the wwwroot.
i am having a problem with comparing two strings. I am taking in the parameter rs("Company") and if this is empty i want to put some text in there. I am testing it with an empty Company field and comparing it like so:
temp1=rs("Company") temp2=StrComp(temp1,NULL)
I have also tried it with temp2=StrComp(temp1,"")
but each time i get nothing returned. Is there some rule about comparing a string with an empty string?
I am using ASP to connect to a simple database to retreive information and also to imput information.What I need is a simple dns connection string syntax to connect and query data.
I have a search function on my site, and what happens at them moment is the user fills in a text box with their search string, and clicks submit. The search page takes their string, and splits it up where it sees " ".
All fairly simple, what I'd like is to allow the user to enter text in speechmarks, so the script would search for a couple of words together, as well as being able to search for every individual word...
Everyone confused yet?!
e.g If the user enters Dev Shed Forums , then the search would look for every occurance of the strings "Dev", "Shed" and "Forums"
What I want is for the user to be able to enter "Dev Shed" Forums, and the search will look for "Dev Shed" and "Forums"...
How do I "escape" any quotes, accidental carriage returns etc that are contained within strPageTitle? Do I have to use a series of replace() functions, or is there a cunning way that makes it OK?
(Using escape(strPageTitle) fills the box with % signs...)
