Magical Disappearing Text
I have some page content stored in an Access DB. I want it pulled from the db and posted to a .asp page. I am using Dreamweaver to create a simple query and to display the data. If the data is just plain text it will display. However, if I enter any HTML (even entity references) the page still renders but the text will not show up. I don't get an error or anything. Everything else works just find but the text does not show. If I change the content in the DB back to plain text it will show up again. What the heck is going on? Anyone have any ideas? I need it two display with the HTML as this is part of a small CMS for a client.

I have a classic ASP page which links through to an ASP.NET 1.1 page.
Basically there is a hyperlink on the classic ASP page that opens the ASP.NET
page in the same window. I can then go back to my classic ASP page by
clicking on a link on the ASP.NET page. It all seems to work seamlessly,
apart from 1 end user. What they find is that if they click on the link and
open up the ASP.NET page, then go back to the classic ASP page, all the
classic ASP cookies have been emptied out, yet the session info still
remains. They are running on a Windows Server 2003 machine with IIS 6. I've
tried to replicate it here, but as yet have been unsuccessful.

I've got some bizarre behavior going on with my ASP code below. For
some strange reason (and I'm a newbie to ASP so it's probably obvious
to others) I can't display all the rows of data from the query. As an
example, the Problem Solution column doesn't display and unless I
comment out another column. Or if I move Problem Solution and it make
ithe first column, then the Root Cause won't display. Code:

My website uses cookies to persist a certain amount of data on the client. However, occasionally the cookies will disappear or be set to an empty string for no discernable reason. It does not happen in our development environment at all, but does happen in our production environment. We looked at all the likely settings and they were identical on both the production and live servers.
We set the cookie domain properly and the cookie path.
Has anyone seen similar behavior? And if so, what did you do about it? What IIS settings should I be looking at? Could it be a service pack that was installed on one machine but not another?

I have a site that works fine for days, then suddenly, I start getting ASP 0115 errors with an indication that session variables IN SEPARATE SESSIONS have disappeared!
First, for background information, I have a customized 500-100 page that sends the value of various session variables via email to my support site. On the home page of the site, the FIRST THING that is done is a Session variable is created that saves the Session ID. I see an ASP 0115 error thru the email, with NO value defined for the session variable that SHOULD contain the Session ID. After the first error, I see more of them.

I am calling a subroutine when I click a submit button. In the subroutine I grab values from text boxes and validate them. If it all works then it goes to the Update page.
Well my validating works but when it calls the Update page I am using the Request.Form to get the values from the form to update/insert into the database.
Well if I do an update it updates all the fields as empty. If I try to do an insert is says it can't insert NULL into the Primary key field.
Now most of the time the Primary key field is a list box and I don't touch it in the subroutine. Still why are all my values disappearing when I call the subroutine??
So I guess that is it. When I validate a forms values, them same values are no longer available on another page through Request.Form?

When using ASP's FileSystemObject to create text files, I am unable to get user submitted text (in Hebrew) to save as anything other than "?????". The text file is being saved in Unicode and setting the CodePage in ASP proved unsuccessful. Strangely, hard coded Hebrew text in an ASP variable does add to the text file correctly.
Any ideas of why this happens and how to get it to work correctly?

I have a form on asp page that pulls info from a DB when the page loads.
It them puts the info into text boxes on the page that are editable by the
user.
The only problem I have is say in the description text box it should
read "HP Laserjet 5Si" , it always cuts the text off where it just says "HP"
.. It does this on all the text boxes? I can't seem to figure out why it
is doing it. Here is the sample code:
With quotes around <%= vdesc%>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" id="desc" size="45" value="<%=
vdesc%>"></td>
And I tried it without.

I have text in a field coming from a database. The text has various
forms such as:
text1
text1 or text2
text1 or text2 or text3
text1; or text2
text1; or text2; or text3
etc...
how can I parse this with a reg ex? I tried this:
(.+);? or
but it only captures 1 submatch (text1) and only if theres an "or"
after it
I'd like to get 1 submatch for each piece of text separated by the
"or", just the text itself if there is no or.
Anyone know how to do it?

I have an ASP page to be used as a Softball Roster. The user will enter their roster information and the information will then go into a SQL database. My problem is this... I keep getting this error "String or Binary Data would be truncated". I figured out what this message meant and I have printed my variable to the screen to see what I get.
As an example what I get for my variable PlayerFirstName is Joe, John, Henry, Alex. I only want one name at a time so that I can import them into SQL. How do I parse my line apart so that I can loop through it and pull off only one item at a time and put it into SQL?

I'm writing an intranet and I need to put something like a non-editable
scrolling text box on the home page where daily announcements can be placed.
I've tried adding a scrolling text box, but I am not sure how to make it
non-editable.
Is there any way I can fill the textbox using something like
textstream? I would imagine one person in the organisation would be in
charge of adding this text somehow. I'm a bit lost in trying to find the
best method.

I have a form with multiple records.
My intention is to have the user click a checkbox for each product he wants.
Then submit the form placing multiple items in his cart.
If I use a text box like the following and enter a 1 for each product,
submit, no problem.
The user gets the products he wants.
<input name="qty" type="text" value="0">
However, if I use the following checkbox code, and assuming the user checks
4 products half way down the page, he will get the first 4 products in the
recordset. If he clicks 1 checkbox, he will always get the first product,
not the product he chose. <input name="qty" type="checkbox" value="1">
What I have found is when I submit the form to a blank test page using
checkoxes or text boxes, there's a considerable difference. The text boxes
deliver a comma delimination for each occurance. The checkboxes only offer
comma delimination for each checkbox that is selected. At this point, I'm
assuming that's the difference between the two and it cannot be changed
through HTML.

I have a form with a select control called "Last Name" and 1 text box called " First Name". In the select drop-down I have a list of last names pulled from the database. Also the second text box first_name value will be pulled from the database also.
When a user selects a last name from the list I want it to automatically update the first name textbox based on their selection. Ie. The persons first name is put into the textbox.I need to take the values of both(First Name and Last name) and send them to another page
