i need to put a date of the following format: 14 June 2003 into a text box. i have seen some samples but i can't get what i want. i tried the following: <%=FormatDateTime(todaysDate,0) %> and it only rendered 00:00:00 .
View RepliesI have been given some text that needs to be displayed on a web page. The text is pre-formatted (includes things like lists etc) and displays okay if I wrap it using the <pre/> tag. However, the font used is rather "naff" and looks too different to the rest of my web page.
I'm not sure how I can (or even whether I can) override the font used with the <pre/> tag. If not, is there another tag I can use to display pre-formatted text?
In my ASP application, i need to send a formatted text mail (i.e with newline characters).
here in my application i used a function in javascript which construts the mail body Code:
My application saves variable length user-generated messages in an
ACCESS memo field. ASP writes these messages correctly retaining CR LF to
generate new paragraphs. (have checked this in the actual data base).
However , when I retrieve a message into another web page, the CR LF
characters are lost, and the message displays as one long sequence of
unformatted text. Anyone any idea how I can overcome this?

I am trying to compare a variable with a db plain text field as follows:
access db has field named HFRNUM as text .... ex: 12182003-A
I create a variable in vb as follows:
Dim hfr_today
HFR_Today = (Month(DATE)) & (DAY(DATE)) & (YEAR(DATE)) & "-A"
Unfortuantely, I think the HFR_Today var is not text and when I look for a record that is LIKE or = the var, it returns blank.
I display my variable and see 12182003-A, yet it does not find the record that matches (except data type perhaps?) Is my variable of a different data type, and if so, how can I make it plain text?

View Replies View Relatedi have a date format d/m/yyyy h:m:s which users pick from a date picker into a text field in a form. But i want to format the contents into this form - d/m/yyyy.
Pls is there a function i can use to achieve this . I tried format(date_field) but it didn't work.
Is this possible to check if a text box on form.htm is in mm/dd/yyyy format before submitting to asp page?
if you enter say 2/2/04 it gives a incorrect date format error. The asp page uses this text box in the select statement for a db2 table query that is a date field.
I have a form with '/' in some of the field names, when I pass through to
the next page the field name comes back as though it's been htmlencoded, so
getting the value out of the field I need to convert this back to '/' with
the replace (same problem if I have a ',' in the name)
Is there an easy way to htmldecode or something what it converted to the
encoded versions? (I have written a short function to basically do all my
replaces for me, but I am guessing this isn't the ideal solution)
I have a database table where I managed to add with ASP an extra column which breaks down the previous column "text_data" and counts the number of words: Code:
View Replies View RelatedI have an app that I want to send out an email to each user in our member
list giving them their username & pw, but I don't want to overwhelm my mail
server since there are over 1000 users in my database.
I don't want to overwhelm my web server, either, having this app hog all
resources.
Luckily, I do have two processors running in this web server.
Note: web server and mail server are different boxes.
So... what kind of pause routine would you all put into my VBscript ASP
within the loop that sends out emails to all users?
If you have a href such as this,

View Replies View RelatedI have an application which loops through several thousand subscriber
records, compares each subscriber's requirements to a database of
businesses for sale, and then prepares and mails off an email
containing info from the database that the client is interested in.
Problem is that the ASP file exits as soon as it has sent about 50 or
so records to the Mercury/32 mail server on the local Ethernet. No
error message or program execution issues noticed. I then delete the
first 100 or so subscriber records and set the file off again. In the
loop thru the next 100 subscribers it prepares an email for approx
every second subscriber, then seems to hit this 50 max limit and
terminates again. Driving me crazy.
I figure that somewhere there's a queue building up which maxes
something out and causes some low level termination. To test that,
I'd like to build something into the loop thru the subscriber file
that causes a delay of 10 seconds or so before the loop starts again.

We have two applications for one system. The first application is a vb-app
and the second is a web-app.
From the vb-app users have the possibility to enter right into the web-app.
The vb-app is creating an appropriate url and opens the web-browser with
this. The url contains user-information like user name and password. We
don't want this url-information to be stored in the history-list, because
then advanced users can find passwords etc here and that's not so good.

View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to put my data from Access DB into a table, but, where I know how to do it creating one row per record, what I'm wanting to do is essentially extract each record into 1 cell, and then have the next record in the next cell, creating a table 2xn in size.
The data I'm getting for each record is a URL & a file location, to create an image hyperlink for each record, and need the images to appear in a table 2 columns x however many rows required.
Is it possible to put a variable in parameter for a URL? I'm looking to have a page with an input box and a link. When someone puts in a value in the input box and clicks the link it will take the value and pass it through the link to an asp page.
example:
Employee Name <input type="text" name="Tname" size="20">
<a href="emp_info.asp?e_num= Tname.value">Employee Info </a>
