i want to trim the given path and get the file name with its extenstion:
i.e. only get the "XPIcon.jpg" in the following example
URLImage = "D:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktopXPIcon.jpg"
Note: the URLImage is always chaning, its not constant.
i am having a problem in how to create a Open File dialog to enable user to select a image file that will be stored into database. i just want the file path to be stored in database, not the image.
View Replies View RelatedThis is not really language specific but more of a source code parsing.
I have a large ASP source file that I like to split up, resulting in separate ASP files, each containing one function and the filename named after that function.
Does anyone know of a tool/script which does this?
PS: I am too lazy to learn Perl/AWK/Python to do this, hence why I believe someone has already written a tool/script to do this. Possibly in C++/etc.
if i got a file path as a variable say for Example:
c:folder1folder2folder3folder4file.txt (The Path could be any long)
how do i just store the Path of the file name and the file name seperately. like :
File Path=c:folder1folder2folder3folder4
File Name=file.txt
I just recently moved from a shared account to a private server. On the shared account, everything worked fine, but after transferring every file as it was before, onto the new server, without any changes to code, the ldb files now won't disappear on their own, like they did on the shared hosting account.
I can manually delete them, but am wondering if there is a server setting that needs to be configured in order for it to delete the ldb files upon closing of the database?
Will these ldb files cause problems in performance if not deleted properly?
I have a sting that have to be split by comma (cvs file)
Let me give you an example:
this is my string:
asd,asd,asd,"asd,asd,asd",asd,asd
I have to split this string but the string that is in quote I dont whant to be splited
result have to be like that:
Array(
[0]=>asd
[1]=>asd
[2]=>asd
[3]=>"asd,asd,asd"
[4]=>asd
[5]=>asd
)
How would this be done for something like a text editor?
For example, say I wanted to launch a text editor from a hyperlink AND also the file I wanted to open with the editor as as well?
I have a problem. I tried my best but could not solve is. I have a
page where user selects the folder name from a drop down list. It takes
user to show.asp page, where it how all the files in the folder and
also user can click on them and download them. If I select name of the
folder from the list, on show.asp it shows all the files and their
link.
When I click on the link then most of the file which has long
name and have space in their names wont be hyper linked. For example if
files name is Virus Control.vsd or file name is INCIDENT-ACCIDENT
INVESTIGATION REPORT.htm. If I click on them it will say "The page
cannot be found". Code:
I have setup a site that allows users to login with a username and a password that are stored in a mysql database,
now what i need to do is set it up so the users can only download specific file(s) related to their username.
With my current set up using all asp and iis 5.0 all the users can download the same file from a certain directory.
I was thinking of somehow using the session variable of the username as a variable in the download path of the file, but i don't
know if this is a correct method of doing this or the correct syntax.

In my ASP file, located at the "/test" directory of the website, I include another ASP file as below.
<!--#include file="../templates/_header.asp"-->
Inside the _header.asp file, how can I get the current file (_header.asp) directory? I need to get the web relative/absolute directory of _header.asp, but instead even if I can get the physical directory location of that file should be fine.
I tried Request.ServerVariables("") with almost all the variables, but none gave me what I wanted. This is necessory, becase the location of _header.asp and the file which includes that can vary.
I am attempting to upload files to a folder on a remote server. However the folder is different for each user based on login. Is there anyway to do this using the code below. If not can someone tel me of a way to do it.
Dim DestinationPath
DestinationPath = Server.mapPath("UploadFolder")
what I'm doing is executing a query based on login for a varible called "uploadFolder", so I want my destination path to be something like
<% DestinationPath = Server.mapPath("rsRecord(uploadFolder)")%>
Of course my code doesn't work,
I am not able to save the file path into database remaining everything is working good i can upload the image to the folder and save the data to the database. I am using MySQL database .....
View Replies View Relateddoes any one here know of a good way to to determine whether or not a
given path is a directory (e.g., "c:mydir") or a file (e.g., "c:mydir
myfile.txt")?
i started attacking this problem by using filesystemobject to check
whether or not a directory existed for the path. if so, it was a
directory path. if not, i checked to see if a file existed for it. if
so, it was a file path. Code:
The file uploader code I've been using won't let me use Request.Form and BinaryRead on the same page so I've resorted to having the file upload code on another, seperate page that is spawned from the first. Trouble is, the path to store the file at is determined on the first page and I don't know how to pass it along to the second.
View Replies View RelatedI usually use SQL Server, but have occasionally had to use Access. This is
such an occasion. My research, mainly at aspfaq.com, has been that you need
to put the file path in your connection string, like this (watch out for the
wrap):
strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=c:mydirectorynamedbname.mdb;User Id=xxxxx;Password=xxxxxxx;"
Well, the host of this new site I am working on is asking me if a relative

View Replies View RelatedIs there a way to determine the filepath of an ASP script being executed, like so? First file contains:
<%

I am trying to create a log of certain events on the website by writing them
to a text file. The logging code is in an "included" file that is inserted
into the pages that need to be monitored. Currently, the target text file is
just specified in the FSO MapPath as "thelog.txt", so it writes the log to a
text file within the same folder as the web page.
The problem is that I don't want to grant browsers Write access to my pages
folder, so I need to have a separate directory to hold the log text file
that browsers can have Write access to. The web site is hosted on a shared
server that I do not have direct access to. In the past, occasionally an
error has popped up that states the exact location, but I can not get that
to repeat. I know it is something like "D:customersmyuseridwww"
How can I find out the actual location on the server so I can use an
absolute path to write all the logs to one file in one location?

- Is it possible to have multiple replace on the same variable ?
- am I doing it the right way ? or is it possible to concatenate those replace in one go ?
Is there a limit on how many Replace one can use for one variable ?

I need to load the file path of a file on a web server into a form text box. I tried using a normal form box using type=file but that just seems to return the file path from the local machine.
Ideally I'd like it if someone can get this to work with a file on a web server without using asp. If not then I suppose I'd have to use the FileSystemObject method. I can see how you can get a list of files from a remote server using FileSystemObject.
The problem I need help with is selecting a file path from the list of files into a text form box. The path of which I am then going to write to a database field.
I have a virtual path setup in order to give my web server access
to a file on my app server. I am using the file system object to check
for the existance of the file and if it exists, it has to validate the
file date.
The problem is I can't seem to find the file. I can successfully check
for the existance of a file on the web server, but once I enter the
virtual path it can't find anything. All three of these calls return
false...
fso.FileExists("http://server/localfolder/virtualfolder/test.txt")
fso.FileExists("/localfolder/virtualfolder/test.txt")
fso.FileExists(Server.MapPath("/localfolder/virtualfolder/test.txt"))
However these two calls work, so I assume I am referencing the file
correctly...
Response.Redirect "http://server/localfolder/virtualfolder/test.txt"
Response.Redirect "/localfolder/virtualfolder/test.txt"
Am I doing something wrong here? The virtual path is setup with an id
that has full access to the folder.
I'm developing an Asp.NET system to take a CSV file uploaded via the web, parse it, and insert the values into an SQL database. My sticking point comes when I try to split() the string returned by readline() on the file.
The following code snippet works for me:
tokens = "one,two,three,four".Split(",")
for each token in tokens
response.write("<td>"+token+"</td>")
next
However, if I take the next line in the CSV, read using StreamReader.ReadLine on the PostedFile.InputStream, I receive "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." which I have narrowed down to be my string holding the line. Further investigation reveals that no other string member functions work on my line (.ToCharArray, .ToString, etc).
I suspect that StreamReader.ReadLine is not correctly returning a string, even though Response.Write(line) displays what I would expect .....

then move on to the next 2, in that array.
i cant seem to get it to do 2 at a time, without ending up with an endless loop or team 2 being team 1 on the second entry.
