On my site the homepage is accessible by all. The other pages need a password. When a visitor clicks a link, they get redirected to the login page instead of the page that they want to see. That part is under control.
If they provide the right password, they need to be sent to the page that they clicked. How do I do that?
I've written (using Dreamweaver) an Intranet for my business. It works great but I've used sessions for logging users in. Therefore when they close explorer they have to log in each time. How can I convert my pages into ones that store their login? I'm thinking cookies, but I have no idea what to do?
How do I keep IIS from caching/remembering username/password?
Here is the situation:
I have created an asp script which sits on server1. The script makes an http call to server2 using the vb object msxml2.xmlhttp. The server2 requires authentication. If I pass the username and password as part of the "open" method of the object..everything works fine. When I get rid of the username and password and make the call again...it uses the username and password from the last call..and It'll keep using that username and password until I restart server1.
After a number of wrong turns and experiments I need advice on login management system to secure our web pages without inconveniencing our visitors or our internal staff.
i need A system whereby the user only has to register ONCE and he will have automatic entry to ANY page without havinto to RE-LOGIN even if he comes in two weeks later or comes directly to that page via an email link. This scenario seems built on the Amazon model of the 'gold box' which automatically remembers you through cookies.
If the user does not have cookies he has to re-login. help me identify a 3rd party product that does this or a route to achieve this in my code.
Problem is when there is an error with one of the other fields and the press reloads the county is reset to Select County how can i remember this value.
I am going to have a form on one page that will have a bunch of options(checkboxes, radio buttons, text areas, text fields, etc.) and these options are going to deal with a certain category. Each category will have different options. Now after this form is filled out they will then proceed to another page to fill out contact information. Name, Addy, State, City, etc.
Now, after they fill this contact form out they will submit it and then it will go through a database and depending on what state and county they are in it will email the information from both forms to the email addresses in the database that match that state and county(as well as category). Now dont worry I aint wondering how to actually search the db and all that yet.
All I want to know right now is how do you remember the first forms information while you go to the second page to fill out the contact information? Using cookies? What? I dont want the form input to be displayed on the second page, just remembered.
So I will select all my options from the first form and fill out all the text areas and fields and all that then click on the Next button or whatever, then fill out contact info.
How do I get it to retain BOTH forms information, and for now just display both of them on a third page(like I said I will worry about the db query and email crap later). I hope this makes sense.
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.
why does this 'file download' box pop up when I click a button on my html page? Saying do I want to open or save the asp file? if I click open it opens it in development.
Could anyone tell me what big corporations do for link management? For my site, whenever I want to change a URL, I don't want to because I know there are 10 pages with that link...
But, right now I'm doing a redesign and will be editing every page, so I thought I'd better find out if there's an efficient way to manage my links...
My first thought was to create a page which I include in every page, and this page has all the links for diff pages, like so:
What I want to do is place a link on my page, and when someone clicks the link a popup appears, and the page they are currently on goes to the next page. e.g
page1.asp contains the link. When a user clicks the link, they are taken to page2.asp. But a popup also appears when the user clicked the link.
What I'm looking for needs to run on Win NT, I prefer an ASP file since I am a bit familiar with that.
I want to have a sidebar links list at the end of the list I want a link that says "add link". When clicked it would bring up a pop up window where you would enter the url and title of the site you want to add.
You would enter the information and it would add the link to the bottom of the sidebar. I've found the script in perl but I wasn't able to get it flying on my site.
If you look at the following url, look on the left where all the links are, at the bottom I want to be able to have "add-a-link" at the bottom. The visitor would be able to put there own links at the bottom and a cookie would remember what they added and put it there when they returned... Code:
