Is there a way to save a file from a remote location to my local computer with asp?
Let's say as an example that I would like to save a file from
http://www.somesite.com/file.txt
to
c:file.txt
on my pc using an asp page located either on one of the two locations?
I have two machines, one generate files, and copy to the other.
I try wscript.shell in my program, but it dit not work.
The two machines are not in the same domain. I saw some people's
question but not suitable for me,their machine are in the same domain.
They can assign permission to do the job.
How do I allow users to browse their local machine and upload a file to the server? I'm looking for the pop up window that allows the user to search for a file in their local machine. Also, once the file is in the server and the user needs to delete it, how do I do that?
View Replies View RelatedOn a remote server running W2K and thus IIS 5 I have session variables declared in a global.asa file in the root of the application which are passed and visible on all pages with no problem. This was also the case on my localhost before (127.0.0.1), also on W2K / IIS 5. But now for some reason one variable doesn't pass through at all and the other is taken as a String on the localhost.
The problem area in question in my Global.asa file (which is identical on the remote and local servers)
<script language="vbscript" runat="server">
Sub Session_OnStart
CInt(Session("indx"))=0
CInt(Session("total"))=0
...
End Sub
When I view the values locally with:
pprice = Request.QueryString("fpPrice")
Session("total") = Session("total") + pprice
Response.Write "Index: " & Session("indx")
Response.Write "Total: " & Session("total")
I get (for example - pprice = 45, and after 3 attempts):
Index:
Total: 454545
Whereas on the remote server I get:
Index: 3
Total: 135
Has anyone else experienced this?
Is it actually possible for a local access 2000 database to link to a remote database online via linked tables. I just wanted to know how feasible a LINKED TABLE scenario would be.
If this was possible it would solve so many administration problems and save development time when it comes to building asp-admin pages to manage the backend.

View Replies View RelatedI have an ASP application on IIS server:
http://localhost/myApp
I use ASP and a my own VB activex DLL to create a pdf file and write this
file to a subfolder of the Application folder:
http://localhost/myApp/pdfs
1-
Over IIS I have set the "write permission" for this subfolder.
But each time I receive the message: "Can't open output file (bad filename,
in use by other application)", error 0x80040202
2- a visual basic test application can call this DLL, generate and write the
file without problem to the folder
3- with ASP I generate the file in a normal folder (ie c: emp), it works
Then my ASP page use FileSystemObject to copy this file to the folder
...MyApp/pdfs
When I call this page there is no error message, but the programm runs utils
the line, where FileSystemObject to copy the file to the folder, then it
stops there. The process is hung (dead). The file is not copied...
How can I do?

I was thinking of doing a asp functions to check the file size and then pass the result to a javascript function, which will then alert the user and denie him to submit the images.I know how to do the javascript part, but I don't know how to check a local file's size with asp? I'd appreciate if someone could help me! Thanks.

I'm working on a document management app that saves scanned docs as PDF files in a local directory, then saves document metadata in an Internet-based SQL server.
The SQL server is then queried to retrieve document info and links are created that point to the files.
