Positioning Text
I'm having trouble with an asp page. First off, I'm new to the html / asp world, but not to software development. I'd like to minimize or "normalize" the site, so I'm trying to use one menu page and include it into any page that needs the menu. The problem is, I include the header.asp page, include the menu.asp page, but when I write the body of the page, it sticks the text underneath the side menu.
I'd like the text to begin under the header (logo) but beside the menu on the left side of the page.The page that I'm working on is at ttp://www.hemmingway.com/default.asp.what I should look at or what I might want to try searching .

I managed to make This code works, in the sense that the <tr> are clickable, but the only problem is that it prints the first values (cat) on a separate column above the table.
code
<table align = center bgcolor = skyblue border = 2 width = 90%>
<%
while not rsTypes.EOF
Response.write "<tr style=""cursor: hand"" onmouseover = ""this.className='orangeThing';"" onmouseout = ""this.className='skyThing';""> <a href=""editfirstmarch.asp?cat=" & rsTypes.Fields.item("cat").Value &""" >" & rsTypes.Fields.item("cat").value & """ >"
Response.write "<td align = center >" & rsTypes.Fields.item("one").Value & "</td>"
Response.write "<td align = center>" & rsTypes.Fields.item("two").Value & "</td>"
Response.write "<td align = center>" & rsTypes.Fields.item
("three").Value & "</td>"
%></a><%
Response.write "</tr>"
rsTypes.MoveNext
wend
Response.write "</table></html>"
%>

i found a code for a menu which retrieves the links from a database, problem is i can't seem to position it properly on my layout.
at the same time, i want to make the asp codes external, so i can just include it in the areas i need it, which is the entire site.
i zipped a folder to make better sense... the sample.asp in menus folder, works fine on it's own, but the moment i placed it in the laid out page, the menu stays at top left and not on the navHeader layer that i want it to be in Code:

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 would like to do some modifcation based upon the value on a text field. What I would like to do is have the text turn bold face based upon the value of the text field.
For example if the field contains a value 4 I would like to have the text some where else in the program change into bold type.
