how to accept ' or apostrophe when adding on the database? because I created a simple guestbook and when i tested it it works fine but once i add apostrophe like TOY'S etc it generates error.
View RepliesI currently have a simple html page that consists of a text box and submit button. A user supplies a quote in the text box and presses the submit button. When the submit button is pressed the quote is added to a ‘Quote’ table in an MS Access database.
This works perfectly well, however if a quote contains an apostrophe, such as … this won’t work… It will not add to the database. If I had typed in …this wont work… It would be added to the database with no problems. Code:
how to add the symbol ' (Apostrophe) to the code so that the validation accepts this within a surname such as o'neill? this is wot i hav at the minute:
With regExName
.Pattern = "^[a-z]+$"
.IgnoreCase = true
.Global = true
End With
I am using a Replace function to replace single quotes with double when
submitting a text field in the database i.e. Replace (q, "'", "' ' ")
which works fine. When I retrieve the field from the database which has
apostrophe I am getting 'Object expected' error message. Is there a
way to fix this?
Right now I think I've got the idea on how to work on ASP pages after such a hectic start, then I 've got a small problem . i have contructed my form but i can't seem to add to the dbase, i can fill the info but i see nothing on my dbase.
View Replies View RelatedI have been working on this form for a couple of weeks already but I keep running into errors after errors. Can someone try to test it on their computer and see if it works? My guess is that our server's setting is causing all these problems. All the files are uploaded.
View Replies View RelatedI am trying to run a script that will add users to a database so they can register with the site. ive got it working so that the users are added however i am trying to prevent people from registering the same username or email address and this is not working.
the script firstly checks that the user has filled out all the fields in the form from the previous page then the script is supposed to check the database for the username and email then adds the user if it is all ok however if the fields have all been filled out it simply adds the users anyway. here is one of the check scripts i am using VBscript and an access database .....
I am trying to add entries in a database together and place the summed value into a text box. Like a total ordered type function for an ecommerce site. I have a field called ArmChairs in my database and based on how many people buy them, I want to know how many I need to have shipped.
I am really struggling with this last bit and would be really appreciative if someone has some code examples.
i cant add a record to my access database! i think the code is right which i used asp script but then only blank record was added! It added a record but then no data in it! Code:
View Replies View RelatedThis code has worked in the past on this same page, and for some reason it doesn't want to calculate the numbers anymore. Anyone see anything that is out of whack?
Basically I am taking the input numbers for each field and adding them up on one column, then taking the totals of all of those columns and adding it up to display as an overall total. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a basic holiday booking system for the company I work for, it is quite simple in that the user selects the dates they want off work, and they can view if it has been approved or not. It has an admin screen so that the manager can go in and approve the holiday request.
To do this I would like the admin screen to display all the dates in the database that the user has selected off and to have a checkbox next to each that the manager can select to approve it. However I don't know how I would do this, at present all it does is read the info in the database. Code:

Can anyone tell me how I can just create a simple html form with input fields of FirstName, LastName, Email and Phone amd when the user hits submit it is recorded in an access database?
I can do the HTML part fine. And I believe I've set up access ok although Ive never used it before.
Also, if the server that the database will go on is a Microsoft one i suspect that is ok? Im not sure if all i have to do is upload the database and it will work? or do i need to talk to my hosting company to set up some kind of odbc thing that ive heard about?
My database will just be called clients.mdb and the table is called Customers.
Basically i have a form on a HTML page which someone fills out with a few IDs, then i have a .asp file which is meant to add the info to a database.

in MS Access

actually, I have a problem while i want to add, delete, or edit a record to a database through a asp page, I can read well but when i want to submit changes using rds object , the data does not change on the source database,
I tried hard to get a solution but i think that the actual problem is only on one figure which is the server value of the data control when i use my own iis server, I do not know this value and microsoft is saying use an empty value but it does not work either.
Let's say I have a dynamic list/menu, which gets its values from a
database table, for example a list of contact people where the value is
an ID number and the label is the name. However, if the value the user
wants is not in the list I would like to place a hyperlink which
will...
(1) open a small window, with an ASP form to allow the user to add a
new entry
(2) save the entry to the database
(3) add that value to the list/menu in the parent window and make it
the selected option
(4) close the small window and return to the original window.
I can handle the code for 1,2 and 4, but 3 is what I'm not sure about.
I don't like the idea of forcing the user to leave the current screen,
go to some other form, add the entry they need to the lookup table,
then come back; this seems like a logical approach, but just wondering
how to make it work.
This seems like a common enough situation; anyone have any code samples
or suggestions about how to do this?

There are many articles and script samples that provide a work around to this problem by redirecting the visitor to another page that does the testing and bringing him back to the main page with the cookie test value in a querystring.
But that is too long a procedure. Is there no instant cookie test solution, either through components (not expensive ones) or through Javascript etc.?
I have built a shopping cart and have reached the point where I need to create the payment page. At the moment I have a checkout page with all the customers details i.e name, address etc, credit card details, order total, product name etc as fields in an form. It is at this point that I am not sure what happens next.
I am using a windows server (www.7host.com) with an MS Access database. I would be grateful if some one could explain to me exactly how I use the variables to take the payment and also how the information is sent back from the bank once the order has been processed.
I have read a few articles, but they just don't give you the actual practical steps involved with the asp pages/database, instead they mention payment gateways /merchant accounts in general. It would really help me if someone could explain this one.
I need help with setting up a page where the viewer has to accept terms before they can access the rest of the website.
The page will have a bit of text explaining why they need to accept oor decline the terms and then have 2 buttons. ie. accept or decline.
What I need to be able to do is set this up so that if the viewer tries to bypass the accept/ decline page they will get re-directed to it. If they have clicked the accept button then they can view anywhere on the site.
I understand that 'sessions' in IIS don't actually close until about 20 mins after the user has left the site and can live with that. But if they come back the next day they must go through the accept/decline page to get into the site. It doesn't have to have usernames or password, they just have to accept.
I understand that you set up several pages to do this, i.e. the accept/decline page, a 'checkterms' page (which sets the session cookie?) and then some code on every other page on the site to check for the presence of the session cookie and let you view if it is there. If not, redirects you to the Accept/Decline page.
The problem I have is I don't know what code to write and where to put it into the page.

I'm pasing a zip code as a prameter to an Access stored procedure. In
Access the parameter is a text data type. It works for non-leading zero
zip codes but, apparently access (or ASP) is converting it to a value
first (dropping the zero) then sending that to my SP.
Even if I use cStr() to be sure the parameter is sent a string it still seems to drop
the leading zero. Any thoughts? Note: It needs to be a string for canadian zip
I am getting a bug with regards to submitting an ASP form. Here's the scenario:
I am entering info in a form and calling an ASP page to process it. I am collecting info from the fields like so Code:
I’ve a form with a textbox called Message. When visitor enters text, I use Replace function to handle an apostrophe code that will receive the text and store in the database.
It works fine.
When I try to retrieve the text message, it doesn’t show what I’ve in the DB, but it displays, for example: I?m. It supposes to display as “I’m”
I did try:
<%message= Replace(trim(RS("message")),"'","''")%>
<td><p><%=message%></p></td>
I know this is a very commonly asked question, but I can't find a solution
anywhere that I have looked.
I need to take the text that will be typed in paragraph form by the user
(textarea field) and do two things with it:
1. Store it in a SQL Server database field
2. Send it in an email upon page submit.
Of course, single quotes have caused problems, so I have this code:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'","''")
Problem is, it shows up like this in the email that is sent:
==============================
We''re in the process of
==============================
I would like to get rid of the double apostrophes, but not sure how. Went to
an article on ASPFAQ, and saw something which directed me to do this:
strInternalDesc =
Replace(Trim(Request.Form("InternalDesc")),"'",chr(34))
However, that just makes it a regular double-quote. I guess I could try and
find out what the character number for apostrophes are, but not sure where
that is. Besides, will that mess up my SQL Server or the email if I do that?
i have a textarea in my form, and it worked. but if the input text contains apostrophe, i would get sth like this:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Driverserror '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression ''rtert'','Judy Nadia Jolonius');'. /saveRemarks.asp, line 195
how can i make asp ignore the apostrophe?
I know a few ways to handle an apostrophe, but am at a loss for which i should use for this. The ways I know how to deal with it are.
alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", "''")
alias = Replace(Request.form("alias"), "'", " & #39; ")
The name of the field is self explanitory. When the admin searches for a person using the "'" , " ' ' " method they find the user. But when ever we display that info anyware it has the O''conner setup. Code:
