View Replies View RelatedI currently have a working search w/highlighted results page. My problem is that there is HTML stored in the text that is being searched and whenever the searched keyword is within HTML, it throws off the rest of the page.
I would happily throw away my code and use another if I could get it to check for things like <> and avoid breaking them. Ideally what I tried to do was display approximatly 10 words on either side of the highlighted keyword, just to give it some context, but I have thus far failed to get this to work properly.
how to highlight the search text on the asp page when its displayed after being fetched from database[using LIKE]
any vbscript technique?
I have a little function to highlight text if it exists.
Function Highlight(vFind, vSearch)
Dim RegEx
Set RegEx = New RegExp
RegEx.Pattern = vFind
RegEx.IgnoreCase = True
Highlight = RegEx.Replace(vSearch, "<span class=""Highlight"">" & vFind &
"</span>")
Set RegEx = Nothing
End Function
The only problem is, that if I search for "something", "something" appears
highlighted when the string being searched actually contained "Something".
This is not about case sensitive searching, this is about showing the actual
match rather than what was being searched for. Code:
I have an ASP search function which, after typing the search term, searches HTML pages and creates a list of links.
The problem is that I do not know how to code so the search term is highlighted in red after the user clicks on the link to view the HTML page.

Is there a way using VbScript or Javascript to have an imagemap highlight on a mouse over event? Doesn't matter if it highlights the entire imagemap area or just outlines it, but I need a way to indicate that the user is over a spot other than just a cursor change.

View Replies View RelatedI have a database with multiple records which are often updated. I am trying to display the latest entry in a certain way (with css div styles) and then list the rest of the entries another, less elaborate way.
Is there a good / preferred way to do this? Right now I have it so that it SELECTS TOP 1, displays that in a certain DIV, and then SELECTS * - however what is wrong with this is that it displays the first record twice.
I have a project on making a UI of a Web page that allows users to:
1. select any text by highlighting it, and
2. do some action on it by right-clicking on the highlighted text and choose an action among those options presented by the context menu items that appears.
3. send the chosen action along with the text and its attributes to the server as the user clicks on the desired menu item.
Interestingly, the next stage is to make the menu items customised by the type of the selected text, e.g. a link or an ordinary body text. Does anyone know if all these can be done fully using ASP.Net at the server side?
I understand that this forum uses some sort of cookie system to detect which threads have been read by users. I am trying to accomplish the same thing. My thought is to have a cookie with two keys: one with the last activity of the user, and the other with the posts that have been read.
Now, the only problem, is that I more than likely will need to update these reads threads based on a date/timeframe criteria, correct? Has anyone wrote one of these? In my threads table, I have a column named 'forumLastPostID' for each thread.
I am new in asp. I have two html files. I like to write
code to compare those two files. I like to show the
difference as highlighted area.
Example: File 1 contains:
<html><body> Compare Test</body></html>
File 2 contains:
<html><body> Compare Test modyfied</body></html>
I like to make either the word "modyfied" highlighted or
the whole line highlighted on File2.

I have created an ASP.NET page that allows the user to page through a result
set. I need to expand on this. On that same page I a filed where the user can
type in a search string. When they click a button ALL the results will be
returned and the closest match to the search string will be highlighted. The
approach I am taking to page the data is to put the keys/indexes into an
array then create another data reader based on those results to display the
actual data. There may be a better way, if there are any suggestions.
Bottom line I need to find what page the search string is on so I can
highlight it. I guess I would have to calculate what page that record is on,
but I can’t wrap my head around it. Here is some code that I use for the
paging: Code:
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.

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 have data where first and last name are in one field. I need help
how to i separate first and last name in ASP.
the spaces between the words (in a textbox for example) are removed when i try to pass the value to another page for saving.
View Replies View RelatedI want to take a string like this:Code:
string = "THE RED GIGANTIC AND HUMONGOUS"
and retrieve only the words over a certain length or longer (let's say 5 characters), maintaining spaces between them- result:Code:
string = "GIGANTIC HUMONGOUS"
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.
Let's say I have the following var:
Code:
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:
Code:
...dolor sit amet, consecte...
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.
How would I do it? O, here's the way it is now:
<%= Decode(ChkBadWrds("Comment")))%>
How would I do something similar using regexp?
how can i count how many words have i written in a text
area?Like taking an example ... i am writing in this textarea
of microsoft usergroup. and say in total i have written 50
words .. how can find out this information?
I retrieved some data from the database and put it in a textbox but the words after the blank sapace cannot be shown, why is that?
Name = rs("requestor") 'where the name is "Sam Siew"
<TD><INPUT TYPE=TEXT Name=requestor size=12 Value=<%=Name%>></TD>
In the text box, it only show "Sam".
