how can i randomize pages ?
Eg. when a user login and he click on a link, he will come to a start page(start.asp) and when he click on the button continue (take_test.asp), he will get the randomized page (question_1.asp or question_4.asp...question_3.asp etc)
I was asked to create a test with 50 questions using MS Access (that's all we can afford). All question will load then show in random order (no duplicates, plus a link for the next question) then provide a "Thank you!" page at the end. This is so even when two people take the test they will have all 50 questions but each in a different order.
I've found several samples, some would let display the questions but in the same order everytime, while others would randomize them but with duplicates and I would'nt know when I got to the end because it would keep randomizing all day long.
I am veiwing a set of records from Microsoft Access in asp. The records are in alphabetical order but I would like them to be randomized.
This is my code as it is at the moment. The Database is called tourguides.mdb and the table is called Cat1. I hope this is enough information. Code:
I'm using a randomize function to display a different featured product, but there are certain items that I want to omit. Here's the code I'm using:
<%
Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/theDB.mdb")
randomize
rdm=int(rnd*15)+246
sql = "SELECT * FROM kbs WHERE kbs.id = " & rdm & " AND kbs.subject NOT IN (20,21)"
set rs=conn.execute(sql)
%>
It's selecting a range of product IDs and it's s'posed to exclude all IDs whose subject is either subjectID 20 or 21. It works fine except when it comes to items with those subjects and then it displays this error message:
Either BOF or EOF is True, or the current record has been deleted. Requested operation requires a current record.
I want to do something that should be simple, it is in php, but i can't seem to find any array functions in asp to do this. I have an array with x number of items (the x may change, could be 10/50/etc.) that will start with 1 and end with x.
For example (excuse my poor syntax):
myArray[0] = 1
myArray[1] = 2
myArray[2] = 3
myArray[3] = 4
etc.
What I want is to call a function and randomize the array as a new array, so for example:
randArray[0] = 3
randArray[1] = 1
randArray[2] = 4
randArray[3] = 2
i trying to generate randomize number between in the range of 1 to 9999 using the below code. DNum* is between 1 - 9
RandValue = CLng((2^7*(ID1Num1))+(2^6*(ID1Num2))+(2^5*(ID1Num3 ))+(2^4*(ID1Num4))+(2^3*(ID1Num5))+(2^2*(ID1Num6)) +(2^1*(ID1Num7))+min1+min2+sec1+sec2)
then i put the randvalue where is usually generate number between 400-to-1500 into the below formula, any suggestion on how to improve the below code?
num_pmax = Int((9999 * Rnd) + 1)
num_pmin=1
value1 = Int((Num_pmax-Num_pmin+1)*Rnd+Num_pmin + RandValue)
i trying to randomize a string of text inc. number and alpha. e.g. 024053J
what is the approach to generate a few integer numbers from this string "024053J" ?
i tried to this way of randomize but not very efficient as in sometimes the user will get the same numbers back when the page is refresh.
So i thought to use a string of text to generate the randomize numbers.
randomize()
num_pmax=100
num_pmin=1
r2=Int((num_pmax-num_pmin+1)*rnd+num_pmin)
Using IIS 5.0 and sometime some asp pages (absolutely
randomly) showing as blank white pages. So far only one
way of fixing it - restart whole server. Restarting IIS,
or specific web server not helping, only whole server.
I enable server side and client side debugging, but no
errors showing up...
In view source pages always look like this:
-----------------------
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0
Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html;
charset=windows-1251"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>
-----------------------
Any idea why it can happened and how to fix?

View Replies View RelatedWe run a website with pages that are created using ASP. The website is
used by different people from different networks. For some people, the
pages are stuck. It looks like the were able to open the page, but it

to do with their proxy. Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
I had a 404 page set up in IIS 5.0 that would the the URL of the requested page from the query string. i recently upgraded to IIS 6.0 but it doesn't seem to put the requested URL in the query string as it did in IIS 5.0 and 3.0. Does anyone know how i can get the requested url property in IIS 6?
View Replies View RelatedI have a bout 5 different pages of which each will contain a form requiring users to complete. These forms are all related as one project. It is necessary that if the user was to only complete the first form they could theoretically quit, come back later (time not dependant) and complete the remaining pages. Therefore I think the best way to do this is to write the values to the database upon each click of the next button. The only other issue with this is that the user will also be receiving a pdf file at the end of the full form submission with all their information inserted into this pdf and finalized. Now. I am aware of pdflib in which I need php but my choice was to do this in asp. What are my options here? Should I combine them, should I draw all the info from the db at the very end with php and then create the pdf, should I use sessions during the entire process
View Replies View RelatedWhen asp.net pages are made in vs.net, loading on the
local host displays the labels all in the top left corner
of the screen. Also, all textboxes and image buttons are
not even displayed at all. If pages are made on a remote
server, they load perfetly fine, it is just the local host
displaying them incorrectly. Is this a common problem?? I
have iis 5.0 installed with windows 2000. i use the full
version of vs.net to make asp.net pages.
I have a web site I've recently moved to a new provider.It has
worked for years.On the new provider's servers ( Win2k Server .NET 1.1 )
my asp 3.0 pages often don't completely execute.
Here is what happens: Most of the page starts displaying in the browser,
then you see some HTML, then nothing.
If you refresh a few times, the page finally completely loads. There is
never an error reported during any of this.
I have installed IIS 5 on Windows 2000 Server and have applied all the neccessary updates and patches. I am unable to run any ASP pages on the local server. I am able to view the HTML pages though. I have checked everything but cannot seem to figure it out. I end up getting HTTP 500 for all the web pages.
View Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup a demo server for an asp.net web site that is working on my real website. The demo is Win2K and I have installed .net framework and IIS, both successfully,I think.
The problem is that when I try to access the demo site, the pages are not being served correctly - only lables are displayed, and not as configured. HTML pages display correclty. I tried to run aspnet_regiss, but get an unkown function error.
i can make a database, add entries to database, delete from database, but the only thing i want is "How to divide entries in Pages" like we can see in the guest-book etc Scripts.
This is an Example: Quote:
Entries: 500 Pages: 1|2|3|4|5
how to divide the entries in pages, like 10 entries per page..?
I've got a site that's been up and running for a couple of years.I've added some new stuff and it looks fine on my computer. However other people are seeing the old stuff.
I've tried a manual refresh of both my browser and theirs but nothing, the URL's are identical . This is a real problem as i'm away for a month as of Friday and the site is needed for a project.
Our website is in html format. I want to change it to asp. I have already created my index page and have it on the server as index.asp. When I load the website it brings it up with no problem. On this index page I have links to all the pages on the website which are basically articles of varying lengths.
I want to use the query string (i.e. page.asp?pageid= or authorid=) ect. to load that article. Do I need to develop a database to store these articles in? If so can I include the formating code in the database field for the article itself. My fields in the database (ms access) would have for example article_id, author_id, article_txt, ect. How much can I place in a particular field (txt wise)?
I understand that the information passed in the query string after the ? searches the database for a match. Once it finds a match how do I display the article and have my formatting included, ect.? I hope this makes some sense.
We have moved a web site from a development server running Windows 2000 and IIS 5 to a Windows 2003 server running IIS 6.0 Now the asp pages do not work correctly. For example, request.form() no longer returns data from the calling form.
I have turned web services extensions on to allow active server pages. The pages do work to some extent, I can even setup a connection to a database and retrieve stored procedure parameters, but some elements do not work. What else do I have to do to make an IIS 6.0 server run asp from a previous version of IIS?
I have IIS running and can get it to display htm pages, but not ASP. I get 401.2, invalid config on server. I've run authdiag, but can't glean the answer from its results.
View Replies View RelatedAccording to my last post (Error Handling) when I create an ASP (check.asp) page to handle 404 error (Page Not found) and I display data in this page according to the URL, this way I can make a site with infinite number of pages where those pages are not availble in reality. and I can create my own links in those to send to any URL in my domain.
Example: to display information about USA, I will make a link to a page called (USA.asp) and according to the name USA I can display data about it, and the URL will look great.
are dose links detectable by search engines?Will google index page http://www.site.com/usa.asp?surely USA.asp is not availble, but the link will display data
I would like to know if it is possible to set this property in way it can be for example in Visual Basic. How would you set tabbing to go the way I want it to go rather and how would you make the first field have the cursor/focus when users log in and get to the page where you can start submitting.
the reason why I need this is so that user can scan through all the fields almost without needing to use the mouse, so the first field to have the cursor inserted and ready to go and the rest of fields to give the tab number the way I like it. Can it be done and how would you do it?

View Replies View RelatedI have 2 seperate sites - Employee Site and Admin site. Only difference between the 2 is - Employee site is displayed based on the employee ID who logged in. So they can see only their information. Admin Site is displayed only to the admin users who can see anybody's information.
Admin users have a textbox and a submit button at the top where they enter the employee ID and then they can see that employee information. (Typically, the employee information seen by the admin user would be the same as seen by the employee.)
Both pages have NT authentication where I grab the "Logon_User".
The goal is to combine the 2 pages into one page.
Once I do that, I need to validate if that NT ID exist in the tables against that Employee ID of the person who logged in.
However employee's information is in the Employee Table.
Admin user's information is in the ReportViewers table.
I also need to check the error message I need to return back if the person;s NT ID does not exist in the table. Code:

I have tried the following to solve this problem:
1. Set intranet security to as low as possible in internet options.
2 Set internet options to allow active content to run
3. Set security to low in IIS for the web site
4. Use http://localhost/webaddress.asp not C:filename.asp to open the asp page
5. Turned off script blocking in Norton Anti Virus
6. Have tried a simple "Hello World" page to ensure that there was no problem with the code itself
7. Checked that the asp.dll is where it should be
8. Have IIS set to allow anonomous logon
9. Have IIS control password
10. Have IIS allow windows integrated logon
I cannot think of anything else that would prevent the asp pages from displaying. I have searched the web and seen similar questions to this but no answers that seem to help resolve the issue.
I have not programmed anything in asp for a long time and i think i have problems with my local machines server setup.
everytime i try to preview an asp page i get the following error:
" The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Please try the following:
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Open the localhost home page, and then look for links to the information you want.
Click the Back button to try another link.
Click Search to look for information on the Internet.

I may well be an idiot - but i have no-one here to ask and i need to sort this out.
I would like to create a site which shows text in English or in Russian
(depending on the user's choice).
Problem is that I can't save the pages in Unicode (Unicode can contain
Russian characters), because IIS can't handle Unicode ASP pages (correct,
right?!).
So how can I have normal (ASCII) ASP pages, which can show either text in
English or Russian (charset Windows-1251)???
