View Replieshow to dispaly text from a text area on a page as page copy (using the replace function)
How do I display this text inside another textarea, holding formatting? All variations of 'what I thought would work' do not.
I am using the following function:
Function DisplayMemo(theText)
DisplayMemo = ""
on error resume next
DisplayMemo = CStr(theText)
if (len(DisplayMemo) > 0) Then
DisplayMemo = Replace(DisplayMemo, vbCrLf, "<br>", 1, -1, 1)
end if
End Function
calling it like:
<textarea cols=119 name=ownSubmitted rows=7>" & DisplayMemo(getInfo(0)) & "</textarea>
NOTE: getInfo(0) is a variable holding my value. Yes the value is there. It is showing the text I want, however the <br>'s are rendered inside the text area?
I am writing a small database utility to catalog all of my favorite ASM/JS/VBS functions and scripts on an asp page. Everything is going smoothly except for one thing that I can't quite seem to think my way around.
I am using a <textarea> to display the code but some of my scripts have <textarea> tags in them and when the </textarea> tag is entered, it closes my <textarea> and the rest of the code ends up outside of the textarea.
Example: (the code after the middle </textarea> show up outside of the textarea box)
<textarea>
code...code...code...
code...<textarea></textarea>code...
code...code...code...
</textarea>
Is it possible in ASP to have an Auto Fill option? For instance, if I am typing in a name and I type in the first few characters, can ASP recognize a similar name in the database and begin filling in the rest of a possible match?

I am currently developing a web form for the transfer of assets between departments, which will store information in an Access database. I currently have the form created and I am working getting the transaction processing portion of it going.
Basically, there is a minimal amount of information that needs to be entered into the form and I would like the rest of the information to auto-fill. So for instance, I would enter the asset number of the asset to be transferred, and said asset's serial number and description would fill in automatically. I have go this working in Access, but I'm at a loss for how to do it with ASP.
I think that I need the script to execute after a change is made to the AssetNo field, but I have not been able to get it to work how I want. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI've got an asp page which scans a range of IP addresses and printes the
response to screen.
I've tried loads of methods and ended up with using javascript innerHTML to
try and fill the content
What I'd like is the value to return instantly rather than wait until the
routine has completed and return ALL the results.
if i'm pinging a big range of addresses the page usually times out......
I thought if I could build the page dynamically, one result at a time, the
timeout error wouldn't happen - and users would see that something is
actually happening!!! Code:

View Replies View RelatedMy boss wants me to develop this page so that users can click on a button alongside an employee's page and this will open up the company Expenses Claim Form with some of the fields automatically filled in, pulled from the same SQL database that the webpage gets its info from.
I have been looking this up for *weeks* now, but the only solutions I can see involve the dot net framework, 3rd-party plug-ins or installing the Microsoft ODBC driver for Excel. My boss will not accept any of these solutions, as we are a huge organisation and this has to work accross the entire system. We're stuck with MS Office 2002, Windows XP and SQL Server 2000.
So far the best I can manage is getting the Excel form to open (but without the fields filled in), which I accomplish using the following code:
Is it possible to use ASP +/ VBScript to automatically fill in certain fields of an HTML form with data generated from what the user typed in another field?

View Replies View RelatedI've written several scenarios where the end user needs to enter data into a textarea (descriptions, messges etc) which becomes part of a form. End users often put apostrophe's and carrige returns in the textarea... however, when the code i write is submitted to the database, it generates an sql command from the page that sent the action.
Client Side:
<form action="somepage.asp" method="post">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress">
<textarea cols="20" rows="5" name="comments"></textarea>
</form>
On code submission...
sql="insert into tableName (email,comments) values ('" & request.form("emailaddress") & "','" & request.form("comments") & "');"
db.execute(sql)
Now, when strange people put carrige returns, it stuffs up the string and therefore produces an error, and to make matters worse if it did recognise a carrige return, it wouldn't be displayed on HTML output. Apostrophes are even worse - they signify the end of a variable in the SQL sentance Can anyone help me and figure out a new way of writing to the DB?
