Linebreaks
I am using chilisoft ASP on a linux server and using MySQL for the database side of things.I have a text area post on the site where several paragraphs have to be entered.
No problem so far,the only trouble is when retrieving the data,paragraphs have disappeared.Now I have seen a few different ways that supposedly cure this problem:
Strdescription = replace(RS("description"), "vbcrlf", "<br>")
Strdescription = replace(RS("description"), "chr(10)", "<br>")
Unfortunately none of these work. Now I am sure I am either coding this incorrectly or there is another very simple way of doing it.
Removing LInebreaks?!?
i have a SQL text field that has linebreaks in it, when i try to display the field in my java/asp script it doesn't work. so i'm thinking i need to replace my linebreaks with <Br>?
is that what i need to do? Code:
Global Variables In VBScript
Is it possible to create a global variable from within a Sub
so it is available to another function in the same web page?
I want to tap a database for information within a Sub procedure
but end the Sub after assigning the values to global variables.
Simply defining the variables as global (outside the Sub) and
setting them to empty strings does not do the trick. The variables
don't persist after the Sub procedure is complete.
VBScript : Constants, Variables And Strings
I have the following problem.
I'm building a site with a db backbone.
In an "include file" I set a constant like:
Const partners = 22
and on some other page, I want to pass the word partners using the query string.
Meaning: I want to make such a link:
href="mypage.asp?module=partners"
When my page reads the querystring - I want it to be able to understand the value of the constant "partners".
when I read from the db using the following kind of Query, I get a "no value specified for one of more..." Code:
Radio Buttons And VBscript Variables
I'm hoping there is a way to do what I am trying. I have an asp page with 3 radio button choices. Depending on which radio button the user selects, I want to populate some drop down menus with different choices.
I have the case statement for the drop down boxes. Problem is, the html value from the radio button isn't actually used until you submit the form, so the case statement isn't finding any information to use to populate the menus.
Does that make sense?
So is there a way to make the radio button selection an immediately usable variable on the same page?
VBScript (client-side) And ASP Variables
I'm having an issue using a VBScript (client side) and ASP together.
Basically I have this piece of testing code (sampled from my site) where the "Order Total" is obtained from the server. In my code I just declare an "Order Total" server side variable and set it myself. Code:
Global Scope For VBscript Variables
I have a piece of vbscript that returns the user logged on to the machine. it is as follows:
<script language="vbscript">
Set WshNetwork = createObject("WScript.Network")
stringUser = (WshNetwork.userName) 'store username in variable stringUser
document.write("Username: " & stringUser) 'output value to web page
</script>
Now I need to use the value of stringUser on other pages of my asp application for database queries, form values etc. I have tried to call stringUser from inside <%..........%>, but it doesn't recognize the variable. Everytime I try to output the value from wthin asp code, it just appears as blank space. Any ideas?
Assign Javascript Variables To ASP (VbScript)
Is it possible to assign javascript variables values to ASP?
e.g. How would I store the following JS variable as an ASP variable in VBScript?
<script type="text/javascript">
var intJavaScriptNumber = 25;
</script>
The problem is I've got about 50 of these variables on a page, and they all need to be used in a simple equation which slows the browser down. If I could get them all into ASP then I could process this server side much more comfortably.
Difference Between Environment Variables And Server Variables
can anyone tell me difference between environment variables and server variables.
View Replies View RelatedReferencing Variables Through Other Variables
I'm not sure how to best describe my problem, so a simple example should help explain things:
I have two arrays, called set1_data and set2_data
if I create a variable like so:
firstPart = "set1"
and then assign like this:
copyOfArray = firstPart & "_data"
how do I make copyOfArray reference the set1_array, as opposed to just a string "set1_array" which is what it's doing?
I've had a good rummage round ye olde Internet but couldn't find anything there must be a keyword or function to achieve this?!?

VBScript To ASP
I have an ASP page, on the Window_OnLoad event I use VbScript to popup an Inputbox to accept a value from the user and put it into a string called strValue. I then want to be able to go (in asp)

How can I access the Vbscript variable in the ASP part of the page?
Using VBscript In Asp.net?
I tried using some code examples from (URL address blocked: See forum rules) into my defualt.aspx page (in VS2005). I had some errors with this. I thought this might be cause the tutorial at w3schools.com said it was for *.asp files.
For example I had an error ("Statement cannot appear within a method body. End of method assumed) when I tried putting a SUB in the <head>. Like this
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "(URL address blocked: See forum rules)">
<html xmlns="(URL address blocked: See forum rules)" >
<head runat="server">
<%
sub vbproc(num1,num2)
response.write(num1*num2)
end sub
%>
<title>Untitled Page</title>
</head>
By the way if anybody will be available to answer basic questions like this every so often throughout the day (ie: check your email or this forum every couple of hours, until midnight California time December 8), I'd be willing to pay a reasonable amount. I just need help with some of the technical details like this + finding source code
VBScript And VS.NET
I manipulate MSAgent AcitiveX object using VBScript at client side, I
met a wierd problem when I debugged my ASPX page. when msagent recognize
a phrase and fire event, my vbscript capture the event and do something,
including make the agent do some animation and speech, then open a
browser window using 'window.open "www.google.com", "Google" '. the code
works fine when I view the ASPX page with browser inside VS.NET, when
browse this page in web browser from the localhost, the agent works
fine, but the new window did open up. why?

ASP VBscript
I'm trying to create a simple recordset, and would like to include an and/or option. to do this i set up an option on the previous page,and then sent the selection through to the next page. i was then hoping to simply insert the variable i had created into the code so that whichever of and/or is selected is used in the code. i.e.
where and_or is the variable from the previous page.
Search.Source = "SELECT * FROM dbo.Employee_List where First_Name='"&firstname&"' '"and_or"' Last_Name='" &lastname&"'"
so basically whenever someoned chooses an option its automatically filled in at the indicated location in the code. is it possible to do this and if so what is the correct syntax for using variables within this code?the full search function will have numerous fields so i'd like to avoid using if statements.

VBScript From
I have an ASP.NET solution,and the ASPX page I have a form ,I want to copy some of the data from that form to the clipboard,I am using the below script the script works fine when I use a normal anchor tag with the onclick event,but I want to be able to use an actual asp control like the hylperlink or linkbutton.
I have tried the link button but it gives an error saying Compiler Error Message: BC30456: 'VBScript' is not a member of 'ASP.sr_aspx'.
And the hyperlink control doesn't seem to have an option for the onclick. The code is located in the .aspx not in the .vb.
C# And VBScript
I have absolutely NO knowledge about ASP. Though I've been working with PHP for almost 2 years and decided that I need to take the next step and learn some more languages both to keep me busy and to expand my skills.
Like I said...I have no knowledge or experience with this. From what I read, there are two ways of coding ASP. First using VBScript and then C#. I'm really confused, because for one, I don't know what the difference is, and secondly I'm ot sure which is the best.
I'll be primarily (if not only) be using ASP to build online applications, websites, etc.
Vbscript
a dictionary of terms with definitions, (in a database) how can i hyperlink(automatically) words within the definitions for which a definition also exists.
url structure is like this
www.site.com/glossary?word=someword
Then - in the definition of "someword" there is a word that also has a definition in the database. I'd like to auto hyperlink it to that definition. Also since the data is all coming from a database, what if one of the words to be replaced has not yet come up in the loop? (...or would it be okay since EVERYTHING should be in the recordset?
Vbscript
usually do perl and php. However, I would like to backup my databases with a microsoft sql server and sometimes a simple access database. In other words I would have a perl or php script that would insert data into a mysql database and at the same time post to a vbscript that will deal with the microsoft sql server or access database. I choose not to use perl or php to do the latter because I would like to keep every aspect according to its environment.
Almost every vbscript I've looked at is embedded in the html page. Since I intend to send via a post from a different type script - my question is can you place vbscript on the server as a stand alone? If this is possible - Where can I find references to this?

VB To VBScript
I have been asked to convert a system-by-system project creator program to a server-based web-interface site. It is currently written in VB 6 and I am going to need to have it in class vbscript.
Is there an easy way to do this? Or do I need to manual go through all the code? I've never programmed in VB but have done some vbscript. But I still don't know whats in VB that translates well into vbscript. Obviously, one is a programming language and the other is a stripped down version.
