I've only recently begun using asp so i'm not that good, but my problem is this:
The navigation for my site is within an include file. However I have an inlcude navigation file for each section but the only thing that changes from file to file is the name of the section you are in, this seems a bit un-necessary.I.e contact, home, about us etc. Is there a way I can use asp to write the name of the section and so only need one navigation include file?
Is there a way that I can display certain text within an asp file dependant on the url? This is what I am trying to do:
In default.asp, if the url is default.asp?VariableHere, then the body of default.asp contains an include calling "VariableHere.inc" (replace VariableHere with the name of the include)
I got a form with many text boxes, checkboxes and 3 drop downs. From that 3, 2 are dependant. I can choose one drop down, and the next drop down should display the dependant values of the first drop down chosed. And I have a submite button to submit all these values to DB.
First problem: I cant keep the value of the selected text in the first drop down. It always goes back to the first value. (but the asp site extension changes accordingly).
Second problem: when the value of second drop down is updated, then the text I inserted in those text boxes, and the checkboxes i checked disappears!
I know its because the site is submitted again to update the second drop down. But how could I keep the values of other elements even though the drop down is updated?
you must have heard this a 100 times.. but how do i fill a dropdown box dynamically based on the value selected in another dropdown box from a database?
View Replies View RelatedHere is what I am looking to do. If you select listbox 1 then listbox 2 and listbox 3 will change.
If you change listbox 2 then listbox 3 will change. The problem is that listbox 3 will not change if listbox 1 changes. Code:
I am developing a webapplication for a company holding stocks for a number of customer companies. The customers can order parts via this new appliction. My application
is linked to each of the customers' home pages.
I want each user to 'believe' he still is in his company's pages by changing logo and i.e. backcolor depending on company. A person from company A will see his company's logo and colors and a person from company B will simultanously see his company's logo and colors. Can I achieve this with css. In that case How? Or is there another better method.
I need to populate a list box with values that will be determined by the selection of another list. What it is, is when we add a user, they get added to a city, eg Townsville and then there are a heap of groups that only apply to Townsville people.
So once I select Townsville as the location, I want to perform a search in AD and return the list of groups in the Townsville OU.
I am not exactly sure of the appropriate method to handle this in asp. If necessary, I could make a third page and just pass values to that from the second page. Is there a better way?
In case you are wondering, there are currently two pages. One is for use by supervisors/managers, and they fill out some details which get put into a URL that is emailed to the administrators.
Clicking on the link fills out the base form for the admin people, but I want them to have more access and to see more than the managers/supervisors that are submitting the request.
How do I make a dependant drop box? For example, when a user selects Item5 on the first drop menu the second one populates with the options for Item5? I know it will probably use Java of some sort but I do not know the code.
View Replies View Relatedwhether anyone had any knowledge of the use of dependant drop downs? For example i would like to choose a product based on the type i.e computer hardware, monitor etc then a list of all products of the same type be displayed in a following dropdown.
Any examples of similar things done, urls to try, your own experience? How simple is it to implement?
I am having trouble with the ordering page. I would like a dynamic form list to look at a database and when the user selects a product code, the text boxes containing description and price change too to reflect the product code.
The user will be entering in their contact details, so I dont want the page to reload too because I will lose that info. Code:
I want to be to call my menu from another file onto my page so that i dont have to add it to every page of my website. The problem is when i try to add it using the include method it says that only one include file is allowed on an ASP. The other include file is my connection string so i cant really take that out of the page because then nothing else will work!
How can i get the menu page included as well as the connecting string?

I have asp page file0.asp which calls another asp page thru include. I have to set conditions tht....
originally the include should have file1.asp In the displayed file file1.asp user selects a hyperlink, it should take it as request and display the new file2.asp in same file0.asp in place of file1.asp.
so i want to display multiple pages on user request inside file0.asp. But originally when file0.asp loads it should have file1.asp. Code:

When I first started using Server Side Includes I used the regular file include:
Code:
<!--#include file = "myfile.asp"-->
Then I read where the virtual include is much beter. I figured I would try it out, so on my last project I used all virtual includes:
Code:
<!--#include virtual = "/somedirectory/somefile.asp"-->
It worked fine and I really couldn't tell any differnce. Maybe a little easier to remember where all the file needed to point to. But this was for a New Site so testing it on the server was easy. I didn't have to worry about existing content up there.
I'm now redesigning a site to add in some dynamic stuff and I always test everything on the server it will reside on to be sure everything will work. Typically I create a "v2" directory and run everything from there. Well this really screws me up when using a virtual include, becuase I would have to edit and then rededit all my file paths.
So my question is... What do you use? And why are file includes so bad?

trubble is theres 52 menu items, if the site would always have 52 menu items this would be solved, but you can add new ones.. thusly i need to be able to dynamic the code...

I just started ASP/ASP.NET two days ago. I would like to know the best way to go about using this include file method to contain my connection string stuff. As I understand it, a connection should only last as long as the query action (unlike VB6 with a persistent connection.)
So, what would be the best stuff to put into an include file for my connection stuff so I only have to make one change throughout the ASP/ASP.NET app?
Any other experiences with good things to put in that include file?
Can I also create the connection object in the include file and use it in multiple pages?

Code:
<!--#include file="http://81.74.60.30/Asp/SicurezzaDip.asp"-->
I have been avoiding this issue but it keeps popping up and I cannot figure out a solution. Include statements pathed two or more folders deep they break.
This works:
<!--#include file="../includes/mo_security.asp" -->
This does not work:
<!--#include file="../../includes/mo_security.asp" -->
So basically my site files are limited to one folder deep.
Ex: ROOT/parentFolder/files.htm
One I move another level down the includes do not work anymore:
Ex: ROOT/parentFolder/childFolder/files.htm
I am on a Windows IIS server. Is there any solution to this or is it just a limitation of the include statement?

How can I include a .cgi file in an .ASP file?
I've tried #include, Server.Transfer, and Server.Execute (yes, I know the last two are
only for ASP, but I tried it anyway).
If I have to, I guess I'll use ASPHTTP to do an http call to the file but first I wanted
to see if there was a more elegant way to do it
