I have a web page that lists our group's service activites we are doing thorughout the year. Curently we have abook that we write down what events we were present to but I would like to make it available online to eliminate having to type down all the information in an excel sheet or access database.
I would like to have the page somehow link to an acess database or excel sheet so that anyone can make changes to the tables and querys (by adding to their name what events they attended). Idealy whatever chenges they made would be saved.
Can anyone tell me or guide me (in details) on how to link Access Database in ASP, including SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE issues.Is there any sites offering this resource?
how do you create a link that will add 1 or subtract 1 from a number in the database?would it have to call a function that would do it or would i have to use buttons that did it?
I am new to asp pages and vbscripting and am having a problem trying to get a form in a html document to be submitted back to a asp page, then into a microsoft access database.But not sure what I am doing incorrectly. Every time I fix one error I seem to get another error.
This is the latest error, and I believe the problem exsists in the ASP page? Something to do with the connection, that it is not seeing the Nano.mdb database. It is set up correcly under the System DSN in the ODBC data source. Any ideas?
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers- Error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/WPF Project/NanoGroup.asp, line 39
Also would the connection string be in the include file or in the ASP file. If it is in the asp file, then do I need to attach the include file? Code:
What I am wanting to do is list the last 10 submissions to a knowledge base and create a link to each one with the question text serving as the visual representation of the link.
I have searched the forums for info on how to do this in ASP and have come up empty. I will detail what I have so far.
I have a database table called kbase and want to have html table with links to the last 10 things entered. I just can't figure out how to get a dynamic link to point back to the database entry.
I may be missing something very simple here but as this is work related my time frame for learning is small at best. Code:
Is it possible to call fields from a MySQL Database and an Access Database on the same asp web page? If so, can someone please point me in the direction of a good guide/article/post on how to do this.
I would like to know how to go about sending a query to a database when a certain image/link is clicked by the user.
By this I mean e.g. table in a database called cd, primary key in table id. Each image/link has its own id number which refers to its record in the table.
So when the user clicks an image or link i would like it to preform a SELECT query using the id number.
How would i go about giving a link/image its own id number? I guess this is simple as i have seen it on many sites and have seen the query string at the bottom of the browser in status bar when you hover over image/link.
I am developing a simple little application for a client that allows them to do an employee lookup. This small Access database contains only a few fields such as name, job, email address etc.
However, when the data is pulled from the database, I would like my ASP pages to create the email as a mailto command when pressed. I'm not sure how to go about this.
I tried creating a mailto: link on the dynamic text but that hasn't worked.
I have an asp page that returns a table from my database. Only about 6 columns from the table are shown on this page. I have the ID column set up as a dynamic link to a 'details' page, so a user can view the rest of the record data.
My database has been growing rapidly, and now when the page is run i get the error "page cannot be displayed".
I believe this is due to how large my database table is because if i delete records the page works fine, as it did when the system was first running. Right now there are 4600 rows in the database and will be growing.
How do I fix this problem, I cannot get rid of any records.
Oh yea, and if i delete the line of code that contains the link, the page works fine and shows the entire table.
Here is the code for the link: <A HREF="details.asp?<%= "JOB_NO=" & rsResults.Fields.Item("JOB_NO").Value %>"><%=(rsResults.Fields.Item("JOB_NO").Value)%></A>
Code: while (!MyQuery.EOF){ Response.Write("<tr><td colspan='2' class='results'>" + MyQuery('Title') + "</td>"); Response.Write("<td align='right' class='results'>£ " + MyQuery('Price') + "</td></tr>"); MyQuery.MoveNext(); } I have that returning a record set to display ! I then need to make it so the "Title" is a link to a page with all the information shown for that book! How would i go about doing this ?
Does anyone know how to hide and show a link depending on the level of the user. Like I want the link to show if the person loging in is an admin, but if the person is a user than I dont want the link to show?
Having a problem getting my asp url to work. Im trying to pass a var and some of them have the & in them. This is breaking my url since it looks for another var with the &. If i put the %26 instead of the & manually it works fine. How do I get that to encode that on the link ?
I know the problem is the data that is in the heading field has & in them. I can not fix that part. Is there a way to force the & in the url to go to %26 ? Code:
To secure files on a site with authentication we have put the attachments in a folder outside the IIS web site like this:
D:Documents<ItemID>filename.doc
where ItemID is a number which we use to check permissions inside our application.
In order to download the file from the site we have made a binary reader component (we could probably use SAFileUp or something instead, but this works) to send the file through an ASP-file:
http://mysite/Docs/ShowDoc.asp?ID=<ItemID>
This works well.
So to my problem: If I right click the link to save the file on my local computer (Save target as), it will save the file properly, but the filename in the Save As-dialog is ShowDoc.asp. I want it to be filename.doc instead. Is it possible?
I've heard that on a Apache web server you can write the link like this:
http://mysite/something/filename.doc?ID=<ItemID>
but then the server knows that it's http://mysite/Docs/ShowDoc.asp?ID=<ItemID> it should load. If this is possible in IIS, the Save As-problem will be solved.
I am not sure where to place the ONCLICK code in the hyperlink as this link is written out via response.write......Its all the " " & ' ' that get me ...
I have a database of literature and I've created a search page that pulls up the records matching the search criteria. However, I'd like to create a link to the article in pdf format, if it exists. I have a field in the database that contains the file name (and path), but not all records have a corresponding pdf file. Code:
I would like to have a link that when clicked, sends info to an ASP page to process, but does not submit the entire page. This way, the user will click on a link and will not be taken to another page, but precessing will occur. This is mainly for a 'Rating' Application. Amazon.com does this and I want to know how they do it. Here is the link to the amazon page (you may need to be logged in) http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...5480771-6490552.
(1)I posted this in general but didnt get anywhere. Then I recalled seeing something recently on the web on an ASP site but cannot recall where.
(2)I have a list of pdf files avaiable for the user to view. When they click the pdf link, the pdf file opens. How can I make the link be a 'save' link? ie, when they click the link, windows treats it as a file to 'save as' etc...
What I vaguely recall on the ASP site was: 'How to hide the path of a download file by using an ASP redirect page'. I was wondering if anyone knows this method, and if they do, would it solve my problem in (2)
I would like to put a picture on may page and I would like to use this picture as a button to execute an sql query, so when you clik on the picture you will hace displayed in the next page the product in the data base and other info like price for example. I have this code to access the data base but I do not know how to use a picture s a buton to use it. Code:
and my link is <A href='register.asp?ret_page=<% =request("ret_page") %>
But the ret_page appears as /vfolder/Content.asp?ContentID=700. How would I get rid of the /vfolder/ and just have the content.asp?contentID=700 alone.
I am trying to create a link that takes a record ID and opens up a PDF file that is associated with the record ID in the database. The following code works
If you have a webpage with frames, say a footer frame that contains links, how can you get out of the frame if you click on a link in the footer. The it works now, is if I click on a link, the page loads inside the small footer frame. I'd like it to just get rid of the frames completely when I clickon the link. Any clue?
Example, Firstly go to http://www.koolgift.com/index.asp, Select Products button... Choose "Apparels & Towels, Caps & Hats"... then choose "5 & 7panel caps & winter caps"... when you scroll down, you will see the Back link button.. when u click on it..it actually link you back to the previous page... however i will like to link it back to the page where the list of products under "Apparels & Towels, Caps & Hats" is...
this is my current coding for the Back link <td width="766" valign="middle" align="right"> <a href="#" onClick=javascript:history.back(1)> <p align="right"><font color="#FFFFFF">Back</font></a>
How would you go about creating a link on a desktop through an asp page. You know the old trick click here to bookmark this page?. I need to take that a step further, i need a link that when clicked it creates a link on the desktop to that page.
I want to make a button just like here (when posting new thread) to insert hyperlink into text. For example when user is typing text into textarea I would like to have also a button that can enable users to post different links to other intenet pages. And I would also like to have button that makes the text bold (Actually those are buttons that appear on most forums when posting a new thread)
when you click on it to go to the off site the user name and password will be automaticly inserted to where the offsite is asking for the name and password. My company deals with insurance companies and we would like to make it to where when our employees go to our intranet and click on a link to one of our carriers it will have the name and password in place for them. i heard its possible and old company did it but I am having so much trouble trying to figure this out.
