Anyone know a useful way of hiding image paths so images on my site cant be directly linked to?
I've seen sites that use <img src="image.asp?/moo/fred/image01.jpg"> (where the path starts from www.domain.com/secretfolder/moo/fred/image01.jpg) but dont know how to set this up.
BTW am on a shared host so dont have the use of base level administration if it makes any difference?
Does someone have a reasonable method for concealing the paths to data when using ASP to MS Access?
I maintain a website where some data is intended to be released according to date:time. Some visitors like to "jump the release date" and just copy-n-paste the visible short cuts so they can get an early view of the material stored in a MS Access database.
Because I do want to continue using a straightforward naming convention for the various files, I was hoping someone might have information on how they had kept from pre-releasing information in this situation.
I had a database driven website running on a free host,i have now changed host and am having problems setting the db path.
the old host was with somee.com and my website was Kartsearch.this was the path that worked
Source=d:DZHostsLocalUserkartsearchkartsearch instantads.mdb
my new host is 100 webspace(http://freeunixhost.com)My details are sugster & the root folder is sugster.freeunixhost.com, there is a folder called ads where the db is located.i have tried many paths which i thought would work but to no avail.
I am trying to solve a problem on a production server, that unfortunately is
not repeatable on our development server. It is for a bank, and the site is
being hosted by a different company.
Anyway the problem is this. There is a directory where a number of pdfs are
stored. Here is the structure.
bank
| |_
| bank2004
| |_
| images
| |_
| pdfs
images
|_
pdfs
The current pdfs we want to access are in the bank/bank2004/images/pdfs/
directory. The old pdfs with the same names but different content are in the
bank/images/pdfs/ dir.
There are three types of pdfs we retrieve. Personal Applications, Business
Applications and Brochures. Our software writes all three types to that
branch of directories fine using pretty much the same methods for each type.
But when our web pages read them back, the 'brochures' type are pulled from
the old bank/images/pdfs directory instead of the current 2004 one. The
appplication pdfs are fine, they are read from the 2004 branch. The code
used to get the applications is virtually identical to the brochure code,
and it all works like clockwork on the dev box with exactly the same setup,
so it cant be the code.
I'm guessing it's some kind of directory mapping or someting on the iis
server, but I dont have access to the configuration of this server. There
are quick fixes to this problem, such as putting all our new pdf brochures
into the old directory, but my boss wants to know why this is happening.
Has anyone had a similar experience who can at least point me the right way.
I have next to no knowlege of iis, but I'm guessing it has to be server
related.
I have written a program which uses a directory structure upto 4 dirs deep.
I reference the include file
<!--#include file="../../includes/main_page_open.asp"-->
main_page_open.asp contains the line
server.execute("../includes/checkPerms.asp")
I get an error saying
Server object error 'ASP 0228 : 80004005'
Server.Execute Error
/ios/includes/main_page_open.asp, line 32 The call to Server.Execute failed while loading the page.
The basis for the error is pretty straight forward - because the file (main_page_open.asp) is being called from a directory, two deep, the file attempting to be executed cant be executed because the system is looking in the wrong directory.
Now, before someone says; change the path; I cant do that because many (about 100) other files reference the same file with no problem.
If I've enabled Parent Paths (PP) in IIS, but have installed the URL Filter
and disallowed ".." and "../" within links, am I covered from the
vulnerabilities of PP's?
This allows me to use PP's in #Include statements, but doesn't allow
visitors to use PP's in their links to access directories on my server.
Is this correct?
Our web application is currently using relative paths in various places throughout our code. im working on eliminating this, but not sure of the best way to go about
it. i want to avoid hardcoding the path to make migration easier and more manageable. i thought there is a way to user the request object?? request.servervariables or
something -
I am trying to learn new stuff using asp. That means I am downloading a lot of examples and looking at them. Sometimes thats all I do is look and compare his/her code to my attempt but also sometimes I need to see a working demo. I find I am replacing the path a lot. Is there a faster way to do this.
can Create a txt file with paths in them and use that to get paths from. It would be differant if I was using the pages but I do not evan have a webpage yet just iis setup on my home comp.
Can anyone help me find a solution to quickly working out relative paths to
a folder in the root of my server...
Although it easy when you go - say - two levels down:
.../includes
it becomes increasingly difficult to ball park the folder when you go deeper
and wider down:
.../.../.../includes
....How do you guys get a quick fix on where the hell the folder or file is
and use that path in asp?
I have developed an application which works correctly when hosted on a server running Windows Server 2003 and IIS. However, I have to present this application to a different company so I want to create a standalone version on my laptop. My laptop is running Windows XP, IIS 5.1 and has SQLServer Server tools installed.This works on the server:
Code:
<!--#include virtual="connection/connOLEDB_Live.asp"-->
However, I have to add the folder name to the path:I know that I could go through my application changing all of the paths but each time I make changes to the pages I would have to go through the application changing the paths again. Can anybody tell me if there is an easy way of configuring my machine to resolve the file paths to include the name of the folder?
i have about 5 files included in all scripts how do i give relative paths to them?
View Replies View RelatedI have a standard Header.asp that I want to include in every other page in
my site. Header.asp is located in the root folder, but the calling pages are
in various folders/levels. Since the relative paths specified in header are
subject to change and are based on the relative path of the calling page,
problems arise. (Strangley, using the IFRAME method of including a header
doesn't react the same way.)
The solution I believe lies in using absolute paths in the Header.asp file
using the "virtual" include qualifier. But this assumes your development
directory structure is the same as your production environment. So I guess
that is the answer. Use absolute paths and set up your development directory
structure to be identical to your production.
I got a problem when I uploaded a file with the input tag of type file "<input type=file.." using the FileSystemObject where The page not opens and there is no any respond, but I tried to see if the folder that is already exists xan I see by that object I discovered that it is not exist.
The main problem I put my files in a folder that I dont know its absolute path , just a relative that always not exist.
I'm searching of a way to send an email, and i don't want the user to know
where he send the email.
Let say i want to send a message to Bob001.
I will type Bob001 in the SendTo field.
When i type the Send Email button, i would like the web page to do this:
Get the username, Bob001.
Find his email in my database
Get the message in Message.
Create the email.
Send the email.
I don't want the user to be able to read the user email.
Every example show something like a "<a href" method. Which is not what i
need.
Is there a way to do so?
1- I don't own the web server
2- Windows 2000
3- Asp install (Asp.net too)
4- Php is not available (so no mail object)
I would like to know if this is possible. I'm using ASP with JSCRIPT.
I have a dropdown box that when the use selects a particular value, I would
like the textbox to become visible.
also if they dont choose it, I would like the textbox to be hidden.
I have this web input form with many other fields. This dropdown box is in
the middle of these fields.I dont see any property to set. I see the disable property but I want it
hidden.
I have a page and dependant on what is passed via the url ie page.asp?area=xyz
If the QueryString("area")=xzy then part of the page is hidden. How would I go about this?
We have a customer that wants us to put our ASP application on their server, so they can have direct access to the database. However, we don't want to leave our code wide open for them to copy and/or modify.
I have heard that there are ways to protect our ASP code, but I don't know what they are.
Could someone please list several options for me, and preferably places where I can do a little more research?
I have http://localhost/myweb/login.asp and i clicked some link in this page navigates to http://localhost/myweb/welcome.asp?userid=2 but in the browser address bar, I wanted to display only http://localhost/myweb/ and I wanted to hide the asp page names & query strings in the address bar.
View Replies View RelatedI have a table which displays data and now I would like to add some of that data together and just display it when the user clicks a button. I was just wondering if there is a way to do this on the same page such as hiding it without having to create another asp page? I was also wondering for output which is it best to use?
<%= output %>
or
<% response.write(output)%>

i have a problem with one of the ASP pages in the website i am doing. I can see the code literally on the page itself on IE browser( highlighted below in red). this happens when i highlighted the page I and can see the code (SQL statement appears).
As this is a potential problem, I want to hide it so that it wont be hacked by irresponsible hackers who may change it. Code:
if i want to pass parameters between pages... e.g. a href="page2.asp?name=Brian"...
is there a way of hiding this so that the name=Brian part does not appear in the address bar... I would prefer not to have to use forms and buttons to do this...
I have a form that submits to as asp processing page and that processing page inserts the info into a database and sends me an email. <form action="process.asp" method="post">there are a few pranksters out there that like to open the process.asp page directly and send blank info to my database and email. Is there a way to have this page only work when the form submits to it but not work if you just go directly to the page. I tried changing the permission to write only, but then you are asked for a password.

How we can hide values of variables in our querystring those are readable in the address bar? is there any way we can encrypt the url and when it is required we can de-crypt it also like yahoo do?
(http://www.yahoo.com/_ylh=x3oDMTB1M2EzYWFoBF9TAzI3MTYxNDkEdGVzdAMwBHRtcGwDaWUtYmV0YQ--/r/m1)
It does not change the domain name but change the folder name and query string's values.
and url encryption should be automatic.

View Replies View RelatedI have a customer with an extensive intranet which contains a lot of
sensitive company data. The client is concerned that any employee
could download source code back to removable storage and thereby steal
the data.
Printing is considered publicly risky and other capture methods of

So we have been asked to make the source "invisible" or at least
extremely difficult to reveal.
