Been looking around the web and found some examples but nothing great. wondering if any1 here has seen a script to show a dynamic clock on a webpage that displays server time (this will be for an intranet app). me and my budy have been working on different ideas but to no avail. so in the mean time thought id post to see if any1 has seen 1 or has done one.
View RepliesI have a database and I use asp to load it into a html table.
The first cell of each row contains a button.
What I want is that when a user clicks the button it calls a serverside sub that inserts additional rows from an other table of my database. Problem is that I don't now how to call a sub from the onclick event of the button. And I don't know if it's possible to insert rows in a html table. Does anybody know how I should do this?

I have the date data in SQL like this 08/28/08 5:20PM I'm trying to create a countdown clock that would take the date and time from the SQL database. Then once it reaches that time it will redirect to another page. Is there anything out there with this example I can use? The time is counted from the server and not the client.
I have a usercontrol which contains ajax toolkit controls which I am using in a SharePoint siite. When the user clicks one of the buttons on the page it fires a series of events server side (creates a new project in project server, creates an new SharePoint site ... ) each of which take quite some time. I would like to display the successful completion of each event in the control to so the user can see what progress has been made.
I am struggling to understand how I can engineer the page to perform each task in turn, post the page back after each task has occurred (to update the UI that the task has been done) then fire the next server side event. It's easy to update a control with the status changes but the updated control is only displayed to the user when all of the server side events have completed.
Is it possible to do a 1 minute countdown clock in text via asp?
View Replies View RelatedHow do i open notepad server side in ASP .i have this so far. Code:
Dim WshShell
'remove the "server." part to run this clientside
set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'this is path to notepad in win2k
'You should have enough priviledges to run it...
WshShell.Run "c:winntsystem32
otepad.exe"
set WshShell= nothing
I have two Win2K machines. Both "appear" to have been set up identically.
They both reckon that they're using UK date format.
However, if I create the following ASP code:
<%
Response.Write Now
%>
One returns
16/01/2004 17:12:19
Which is what I want, whilst the other returns:
1/16/2004 5:15:21 PM
Here, the day and month have been transposed and the time appears in the 12 hour clock format.
I try to display the time from an access db in 12hr clock format. Am I missing something simple? The time is held in the medium date format ie 07.30pm and I'm using:
FormatDateTime(rs("StartTime"), vbshorttime)
but this displays 19:30 instead of 7:30. If I change to vblongtime I get 19:30:00 and if I change the time field format to short time I still get 19:30. What am I doing wrong??!
I have a new approach to saving charts from server-side Excel when ASP pages are processed. The charts show weather data that is updated every 15 minutes in a database, and instead of just automating the chart production so that every chart is generated every 15 minutes, 24 hrs/day, it seems smarter to generate up to date charts when people want to look at them. But I'm not sure if this is the best approach.
This is what I can do from an ASP page to dynamically chart data:
- run Excel on the server
- open a Worksheet that has a customized chart for a range of cells.
- insert new data in the charted range of cells (chart auto-updates).
- save the chart to a gif file.
- insert the gif into the html page viewed by the client.
Using this approach is convenient because I can customize charts to look exactly as I want without having to find the documentation to automate the chart formatting.
Is it possible to run Excel once on the server, and let all requests for charts use this one running instance of Excel? The alternative is that Excel will run once for each chart request, this seems like it could get out of hand pretty quickly if a lot of people are trying to look at charts at the same time.
Are there better ways to generate charts dynamically on the server?
