regarding EXACT search. i want let user search with ANY or EXACT match. i had done any with
instr(products, '"&st&"') > 0
where products is my database field, from where search result come and st is the search string entered by user. now want to provide EXACT search. e.g. machinery will match only machinery and not machine, machineries, machines etc. i had tried LIKE predicate. is there any other way to provie EXACT match ?
i am doing a database search project. and i would like to know how do i get exact keyword searched from the database. for e.g. if the user enters keyword as "lan" to be searched it should return only records that contain exact keyword "lan" and should not return "plan" and other words like that.
I want to search a string of HTML and insert a querystring into any url where the url is an asp page and is either a local link /folder/page.asp or of a specific domain http://www.somedomain.com/folder/page.asp. It needs to be able to handle plain links and those with querystrings already in there.
I could do it with instr functions etc but I thought this might a good time to brush up on regular expressions. Can anyone point me in the right dirction?
I'm uploading a file locally and I'm trying to passing it throug a variable and I'm having a problem with locating the exact file name from the upload_document page. I thought is was "r_title" but for some reason the file name isn't stored there.
I am using ASP to query access db on IIS5 I need to find exact matches for search terms within a string. EG "cat" will find cat but not catastrophe from within a large string. I cannot use "=" as that would match the whole string and I only want to find the exact match within the string. I am trying "like '%[!a-z][search term][!a-z]%'" which is pretty clumsy and also doesn't pick up the search term if it is at the beginning of a sentence. Can anyone help me with the syntax here? I have racked my brains coming up with all sorts of convoluted solutions that all end up having a flaw. I have been looking around ASP fora and it seems a few people are asking the same question but getting no answers. (you might see my question in some of them...) I am sure there must be some operator within sql as there is in FMP but I cannot find it.
i want to provide exact match. e.g. if user enters pharma machine result only display records containing pharma machine and not records containing either pharma or machine.
database table: company_info
database field: products
user entered search (field name): st
i had tried the following
select * from company_info where products like '"&st&"'
Set RS = Conn.Execute("SELECT TOP 10 id, score, numvotes FROM [user] WHERE active = '1' ORDER BY (score/numvotes) DESC") Simple query, nothing to fancy. However it doesn't order highest to lowest correctly. Here's a sample output:
i get "system cannot find the file specified" error. iam sure that the path of file iam looking for is true. i guess this is a friendly message thrown. when i turned off the freind messages in IE (client side) i still get the same error. is there any way that i can see the exact error so that i can debug.
i get the ref url that come to my site and i want to convert it to find out what was the query in (google or other searcher sites)
foe example : if someone goes to google and search some text and my site was in his resaults and he click on it , in my site i see his link ref like http://www.google.co.il/search?hl=i...91-Google&meta=
i want to know (in asp and save it to DB) what was the word or words that the user write in search engine.
Can anyone give me a regular expression for finding a URL in a string of text?
Essentially what I want to do is find URLs in a text string and embed them in {a href...} tags. However, I haven't used regular expressions all that much in ASP/VBSCRIPT.
I need to create a regular expression for a date field that works only in the following format MM/DD/YYYY with the / in the format. No other format can be inputted into the field. I need 2 numbers for MM 2 Numbers for DD and 4 numbers for YYYY. If the users enter 1 number for month, 1 for day he should get an alert.
I have this code and thought it was working but it is not.
I am trying to validate an input field that should only accept numeric values no larger than 6 digits to the left of the decimal and up to 2 digits to the right of the decimal. The values to the right of the decimal are optional though.
so the max format should be (xxxxxx.xx)
I tried this format:
"^(d{1,6}.*d{0,2})$"
but this format takes values larger than what i want.
I'm going down the road of learing the pattern matching in regular expressions, and I'm trying to convert the characters into English in my head so I can see whats happening...
For clarity with this one...
[b]([^]]+)[/b]
Ok - the first thing I did was break it up - because it looks a nightmare like that...so now I have..3 parts..
[b]
([^]]+)
[/b]
In part 1 I under stand that the is telling the expression that a special character is coming next, thus escaping the [ and ] respectively, thus , and in part 3 I understand the same and also the escaping of the /, thus - no problems so far...
In part 2 I'm assuming that the brackets are seperating a "pattern" so that I might reference it as $1 later on, I understand that the [^] are saying "not enclosed" so therefore it's going to ignore a ], the + sign however perplexes me - my VBScript book says "Matches the preceeding character one or more times" - so does that mean the ] just before it, or does it mean the character OR characters defined within the [ ] etc?
is it possible to have a replace() function in an SQL query? I need to use something like that to be able to sort my "sequential-numbers", which are actually textfields like this:
98.1 98.10 98.2 98.3 98.4
What I want is to query these numbers, convert them by removing the dot with the replace command and the sort the recordset on it.
I'm trying to find a regular expression function to strip contents out of a string which lie between square brackets [].I've got one for chevrons (to remove HTML - as below), but would prefer not to have to replace the chevrons for square brackets first.Code:
function funRemoveHTML( strText ) Dim RegEx Set RegEx = New RegExp
RegEx.Pattern = "<[^>]*>" RegEx.Global = True
funRemoveHTML = RegEx.Replace(strText, "") end function how I can modify this for square brackets as opposed to chevrons?
A client wants have acess to an online databases records controlled by group strings and evaluation strings e.g., each use would have in his client record a group string like this:
[ROOT][ADMIN][ACCOUNTING][ABC PRODUCTS]
And each record in a database would have an evaluation string like this :
([ROOT] OR [ADMIN] OR [ACCOUNTING] OR [FINANCE]) AND [ABC PRODUCTS] OR [ACME]) etc.
No limit to the number of groups or the complexity of the boolean expression evaluation algorithm. I need an asp function that I will just pass the group string and the evaluation string and it will return True or False as to whether the client can view that particular record. I can't find anything in ASP on the internet though this must be a common database control method for non-browser applications? Has anyone done anything like this in ASP?
I'm making url's out of text starting with "www" etc. but I've got two problems. Firstly, if the string begins with www it doesn't get matched, and secondly, if there's a dot or a comma directly after the url, it becomes part of the url. I hope someone who is better at this than me will be able to help me out. Code:
reg.Pattern = "(s)(www)(S)(S+)" s = reg.Replace(s, "$1<a href=""http://$2$3$4"" target=""_blank"">$2$3$4</a>")
I have a SQL statement here that im trying to troubleshoot, it is coming up with 'join expression not supported'. I have tried the statement in the access database (in msaccess) and it works fine without any errors. The statement is as follows:
Code:
strSQL = "SELECT 'tbl Item.Art_No', 'tbl Item.Description', 'tbl Item.BA', 'tbl Item.Retail Sales Price Incl GST', 'tbl Item Bin SOH.Location', 'tbl Item Bin SOH.Blocked', 'tbl Item Bin SOH.Stock on Hand' FROM 'tbl Item' INNER JOIN 'tbl Item Bin SOH' ON 'tbl Item.Art_No' = 'tbl Item Bin SOH.Art_No'"
I am trying to make my update page work, but when i submit the form it comes with this error "mismatch in criteria expression" and the problem i think lies on one of my menu list that is joined to another table in the database.
