Forcing A Timeout
How do I test a "timeout" error when pulling an .asp page? How do I
raise a "timeout"? How do I "catch" a time out using VBScript with
ASP?
Forcing A Reload
I've got a little shopping cart app which when you use all of the links on the pages, and buttons etc, things are good, the "shopping basket" on the left navigation updates and shows a sum of items and cost.
However, if you arrive at the home page for example, proceed to the products page, add an item and then click "back", you get a cached page.
I appreciate there are some lines of code I can use, both ASP and html to prevent the cachine, but what I dont want to incur instead is that error IE (and other browsers too I guess - how very Microsoft of me - shows when the page has expired, I think that would probably be worse than the cart not showing any items (or not showing the update) until a link was pressed.
Forcing Option Select?
I am trying to force the last option selected in a drop down!, I basically have a page with a drop down box in which sends to itselfs when selected, the idea is
the selected value updates a postage amount depending on the country selected from the dropdown.
However when it returns to the page it defaults back to 'select country' and I would really like it to be able to display the option selected as this is part of the address form.
the relevant country is correct, and i am putting that into a request.querystring so this variable (destination) is available to test/compare against and maybe force select this way, but i just don;t know how to write the asp/html to make the select value go to either this variable or the last one selected. Code:
Forcing Authentication With ADSI / ASP
First the brief: I'm currently developing an intranet at work. We have approximately 3000 users and they keep forgetting their passwords. We have 3 Tech-Support guys who keep having to reset them. The idea was to build a function in to the intranet to allow department heads to be able to reset other users passwords via asp.
All well and good. After a fair bit of reading, I've acquainted myself with the basics of talking to Active Directory and retrieving various objects, properties and values.
My problem is that when I try to update any of the objects (i'm focusing on the .description property at the moment 'cos when I break it - that's not gonna matter so much) But when I try and SetInfo, I get a General Access Error. My ServerVariables("LOGON_NAME") is empty. I was wondering if there was a way to force an asp page to run as the server administrator 'cos obviously when department heads login, we don't want all of them to be AD Admins. All they should be able to do is run my script to reset a password.
I'm not actually the server admin, and don't really know the specifics of IIS, but can I just tell it to run specific scripts as domainadmin? Or can I pass something in the asp headers to force it to authenticate as admin?

View Replies View RelatedForcing Date Into 2 Digits
I am storing a datetime into SQL Server 2000 field in datetime format. For single-digit months and dates, it is leaving the 0 off, like this:
11/6/2003
1/5/2003
For reasons having to do with technical requirements, I need to have it put the 0 in when needed, and not do it when it already has 2 digits:
11/06/2003
01/05/2003
How can this be done? When I get the value of the date in the first place, it is using the Now() function. For some fields, I only need the date, not time, so I do a DateValue around the result of the Now. Is this solved with ASP? Or do I need to do something in SQL Server?
Forcing A Div Element To Background
Are there any div attributes that could force a div element to stay in the
background? I have a .vbs calendar class that opens a small calendar.
Unfortunately, sometimes it opens above a form element like a combo box and
the combo box shows on top of my calendar.
The combo in question happens to be within div tags because it hides/appears
depending on another form choice.
Any got any good links on forcing div elements to the background?

<% Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "filename=" &

View Replies View RelatedASP To Download
I am trying to download files from one website to another for purposes
of caching. In trying to do this, I created a VB dll component (using
VB6), that used URLDownloadToFile, to allow me to download the file
onto the receiving site. The sending site supports an ASP page that
allows the file to be downloaded.The component works fine when run in debugging mode, placing the file as expected. But when not debugging (but registered), it reports that
the file has been downloaded, but the file is not there.

View Replies View RelatedDownload Under A Different Filename
My problem is: i need to write an ASP page which first checks whether
the user has permissions to download a ZIP file, and then streams the
file itself if the user is allowed to see it.
I have succeeded until
this point, but the client browser asks to save the file with the
original filename (and ASP extension). Obviously this would mean
making the downloaded file unusable at client side, unless I tell the
site user to manually rename it, but this is not a solution.
So I ask you: is there any way for an ASP page to stream data to the
browser and have it saved with a default file name and extension which
are different from the page's ones? Code:
Download Script
I'm having a problem with a script that makes the browser download a PDF instead of opening it.But when the file is downloaded, it downloads nothing.
The code is:
[vbs]
Set FSO = server.createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FileThere = FSO.FileExists(server.mapPath(request.querystring("f")))
If FileThere then
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" & request.querystring("f")
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
else
response.write("Sorry, file could not be found")
end if
Set FSO = nothing
[/vbs]
let me know and I'll pm you the address for it.

View Replies View RelatedDownload Data
We have to provide a facility on the client machines to download the data
visible on a ASP page into an excel sheet. We are using WIN2k clients
connected to WIN2k server with IE6.0 installed.
The way we plan to implement it is that :
a) provide a right click and download to excel button from the ASP page
visible in IE.
b) on click of download make a server call passing the appropriate command
to send back the data in excel format.
My questions are :
Q1) Is there anyway to avoid the server call? I am not looking for OCX
either?
Q2) Are there any issues to do with memory leaks / deadlocks in case we use
such office automation to generate a report in excel? Is there a way around?
How Do You Run Media Not Download It ?
I have an example running at the moment that shares some 15,000 MP3 files however to offer these as downloadable i would be breaking the law i think !
I would like to set it up so that i have a method where the user can build a play list by going through the files and selecting them and then they would would be played either through the clients own system applications or through media components i can build into the site.
Maybe i could have some controls on there.
also why does the script not like to display files with the .ISO file extention ?
How To Download Files With ASP?
I want to make a support-page where people can download the latest help-files (these will be in a database) but I don't know how to do this (I only know the basics of ASP).
I don't mean that, for example a pdf, should open in another window. When you click on the filename it should give the standard downoad-box 'Open', 'Save', 'Cancel'.
Does anyone know how to do this? Or maybe there is some code on the net that explains it.
File Download Box
