View Replies View RelatedI have built an asp app that sends an e-card to selected recipients along
with the text entered by the user. Well, on some machines the text is not
visible because the background color of the table is not going across
correct. The background color is supposed to be teal with white letters.
However the background is going across white with withe letters on some
machines. I am using the same browser (version and everything) as one of the
machines that can't see it the correct way. I am able to see it fine. I have
put in the back color for all of the cells the table, etc but it's still
going through white. What would cause this to happen?
does anyone know a way to run a function in the background that wont depend if the browser is open or close?

View Replies View RelatedI am using two asp pages that have large (up to 1280X1024) background images. The image is the same on both pages, but when I go from one page to another it reloads the image each time and flickers for a second when loading because the file is so large. Is there a nifty way to keep the background image the same across two pages without reloading.
View Replies View RelatedIs it possible to make functions or system calls run in the background of an ASP script? I need to ping a numebr of different addresses, and as I could run these at the same time, it would make it a lot quicker, especially as a few of these addresses will always deliberatley time out, which holds the other pings back. I'd like to be able to run all simultaneously, but if i could at least run one ping (which i'm doing via a ping.dll module i found) in the background that would be great.
i've been searching around but for the life of me I can't find anything about this. does it exist at all?
Is it possible to set an image as the background body image (non-repeating too) in a message sent using CDO. I don't want to embed an external webpage (I have to insert user form related variables back in the body of the email) and the image is on the server the mail is being generated from - have googled for ages on this one but can't seem to find
anything suitable...

There is a setting in IE for "Print background colors and images."
I've noticed that without checking this option, a web page will print CSS
lines between table rows, but a background color of say the header won't.
The below style will display the borders in print preview, but won't display
the background color.
Does anyone know if it's possible to force background CSS or HTML colors to
print without having the user change the default in IE to not print
background colors? Code:
I have a stored procedure that gets called from an ASP page. I had a requirement to adjust the stored procdure to have a delay, so now my browser waits for the stored procedure to complete before it returns the page and value I am looking for.
Is it possible to launch the stored proc from the ASP, but have it run in the background per say and return the value immediatley to the browser, cause the browser portion to not appear to be delayed?

View Replies View RelatedAre there any div attributes that could force a div element to stay in the
background? I have a .vbs calendar class that opens a small calendar.
Unfortunately, sometimes it opens above a form element like a combo box and
the combo box shows on top of my calendar.
The combo in question happens to be within div tags because it hides/appears
depending on another form choice.
Any got any good links on forcing div elements to the background?
how to run a script in the background? I have a stored procedure, which gathers a lot of info on various tables in a MSSQL , and from that rebulds a large table. I run this stored procedure like so:

Response.write "<bR><BR>Finished!<BR><BR>"
this script takes about 3 minutes to complete, and then I can't do other stuff on the site. This script needs to be run at regular intervals, whenever new company information is added. Now, I want to be able to add the new info, and let the script run in the background, without waiting for the outcome / output. Can this be done?

I am using a new payment gateway for one of my sites. One of the options they recommend for submitting the credit card info involves submitting a form in "the background" with a post. They then return a comma-delimited string, which I can easily parse and act upon.
