Specify Mime Filename
I have an ASP page that causes Excel to be loaded on the client PC with the text sent from within the page. An excerpt of it is shown below:
With Response
.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
.Write(strResponse)
.Flush
.End
End With
where strResponse is the text to be displayed in Excel. This all works fine and as expected, but the only problem is that the file is opened in Excel on the client with a filename that reflects the page from which the information originated. Is there any way of specifying the filename using MIME, for example if I wanted the file to be loaded in Excel as "myfile.xls"?

I have a form that gets a filename from a db like so
<FORM METHOD="POST" encType="multipart/form-data" ACTION="pic_delete.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="File1" value="<%=rstemp("filename")%>">
<input type="hidden" name="ImageID" value="<%=rstemp("ImageID")%>">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME="cmdSubmit" VALUE="Delete" ></form>
when I submit I get the error message "File not found"
So a did a respnse write to write my filename and found it is now called 2006_Apr_19-83955.23.bin It seems to be the time as it changes each time I try and get the filename to write...
this is the code on my delete page
<%
Dim Upload
Dim FileName
Dim Folder
Set Upload = New clsUpload
FileName = Upload("File1").FileName
response.write "Here is the file " & FileName & " name <br>"
Folder = Server.MapPath("..country") & "" & strPathToSave
response.write "Here is the folder " & folder & " name"
Upload.DeleteFile Folder & FileName
'Upload("File1").SaveAs Folder & FileName
Set Upload = Nothing %>
The folder name comes out right, just the filename changes.

I use Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP") etc to grab the content of
another asp page.
I want the other asp page to look like an xml document. So I set the header
to text/xml with the line
response.contenttype="text/xml"
I set this on the calling page and the page that is called.
When I view the headers with http://pgl.yoyo.org/http/server-headers.php it
is still set to text/HTML. Also the browser displays the page as if it were
HTML, not XML

I'm running PWS on a Windows ME machine to do some WAP development. I need to set up some mime types so that PWS can deal with .wml .wbmp and .wmls WAP files.
I'm told this can be done by either via the Folder Options -> File Types from a Windows Explorer or by editing the registry. I've tried both of these but to no avail.

I am sending the attachment using cdo nts in MIME format. The problem is that the mail is going but the attachment is not send and the message of http error 404 is shown in body of the mail. Moreover, when i take the reference of cdo nts library in vb project, it shows only two objects of it i.e newmail and session. iis 4.0 is installed and
the machine has nt server installed.
I am using the code of the following URL to send mail and the code of the body is also similiar.

I have a selection of MP3's on my website, (non-copyrighted of course), I have an asp page that list the directory of MP3's which then provides a link to another ASP page to force download the file.
<%
Response.AddHeader "content-disposition","attachment; filename=" & Request.QueryString("fname") & ""
%>
Up until the weekend just gone, this worked fine, but now it only downloads a 0 byte file.
Obviously my code hasn't changed, so has anyone any other ideas whats gone wrong or another way the force download of a known mime type can be acheived.

I have some simple asp code to send a response to the client with aparticular ContentType defined, code shown below:
Response.Clear
Response.ContentType = "application/x-custom"
Response.Write "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><testing/>"
Response.Flush
I have a client side ActiveX control implementing IPersistMoniker that isregistered to handle this MIME type. This seems to work fine on some machines and not others. On some of my machines, the control is not instantiated at all. Instead, a blank page is shown in the browser. If I change the ContentType above to something like "text/xml", the response is shown correctly in the browser. This leads me to believe there is a problem with the client mime handler, but it seems to work on most machines.

How to send the HTML and Text email at the same time?CDONTS only send one type of email at one time and we should know before hand what type of email the client can receive. In my case i want to send both and depending on clients email reader the right one should show up.
I have used ASP email component also but for this component to work properly we should have relaying enabled on our SMTP server.Due to the threats of SPAM i dont want to do this. I am not any demanding here but simply trying to find the better way

I've got an asp page with a CDONTS object sending HTML mails with proper attachments on them... thing is, some mail recipients get the full attach ok, and some don't (but still get the HTML ok)! (all recipients added to the same object... no more than 10 recipients)
i believe it's got something to do with MIME types and stuff, but i've got no ideia on how to solve this problem...

I'm looking for a way to check if a directory has any filenames with 'w9' in it, and if so print 'yes' in the appropriate place. My database has a field called CustomFieldFilesDir where the appropriate folder structure is already entered for each person ex. 'p:john doe'. I've searched and found scripts that look at extensions but not the file names themselves.

My problem is: i need to write an ASP page which first checks whether
the user has permissions to download a ZIP file, and then streams the
file itself if the user is allowed to see it.
I have succeeded until
this point, but the client browser asks to save the file with the
original filename (and ASP extension). Obviously this would mean
making the downloaded file unusable at client side, unless I tell the
site user to manually rename it, but this is not a solution.
So I ask you: is there any way for an ASP page to stream data to the
browser and have it saved with a default file name and extension which
are different from the page's ones? Code:

I want to have a form where there is a textfield and a Browse... button to the right of it. I want the user to be able to press the Browse... button and select a file and then that filename be returned to the textfield.
I don't want it to upload it or anything like that...I just want to know the filename that the user has selected. Also, when the user presses the Browse... button, I want it to automatically go to a certain place.

I have an asp file upload facility on my website and I now want to add a timestamp to the name of each file uploaded to my webserver to ensure no clash of names.
I have no idea how to code it so egfile.txt will arrive on the server as egfileYYYYMMDDhhmmss.txt (or something similar).
Is it possible to do?

I've created an upload application that allows a user to upload a file a space on the web server.
What I want is when a user selects the file to upload, when the upload process takes places, a random number is generated and added to that filename.
I work out I can add the code:
intrandomnumber = Int((1000000-1+1)*Rnd+1)
but how do you do the change to the filename when it uploaded as I can change the filename name but the physical filename name would be the filename held on the user PC?

I am storing URL in a database for a 'sort of' directory type website.The <a href> is built from the recordset of URL's which is all working no problem, easy stuff.What I have found is going to be necessary in some cases is to trim the URL back to just it's www.abc.co.uk address for the link display.
I still want the actual link to go to it's long 'deep linking' location, but there is limited room for displaying a URL that could be a hundred chars long.

I'm making an error tracking system.I want to include a file (or function) at the top of each page which gets the A) current file name B) directory the file is in. In PHP this is $_SERVER( PHP_SELF )
On a side note, why is it that you can type "PHP SERVER FUNCTIONS" in google and get wonderful results, whereas "ASP SERVER FUNCTIONS" returns garbage?

One of the things I do is do my testing on an alternate address, then store the file as the regular address after it tests correctly, but since I might mention the test page in various forums when I ask questions, I leave it uploaded just in case someone later sees the link and clicks it.
So far, my kludgy way of handling it is to have a variable called "thispage" and set it equal to the page I'm working on, so when it links to itself, it links back to the page in question.
Is there a way of automatically testing for this value instead of manually defining it? I tried a quick Google search, but I didn't know what to call it. I assume it might be in the same general collection as the HTTP_REFERER item.

I coded a simple asp-script to force a file-download. (ex. dummy.doc). In IE6, NS4.7 and Opera 7 everything works fine and the file can be easily downloaded. But NS7 renames the filename in the dialogue-box to dummy.doc.asp . How can I prevent that?

I'm uploading a file to my server, and I retrieve the filename. Now I can print out the filename with response.write(filename) but when I try to insert the filename into access I get a "cannot be a zero-length string." error. I'm assuming its because the filename was read in using binaryread. So how would I convert this back into a string?

I am uploading files to my webserver using an asp upload script and would
like to add a timestamp just before they are saved to the server.
This would mean that filename.txt on my server would be uploaded to the

I found this code on the net that will prompt a user to select open or save the file. If you run it, it will just prompt to download "whatever.doc".
The problem that puzzle me is when my filename have spaces e.g. "this file.doc", the code will replace "_" to the spaces. i.e "this_file.doc"
How do i maintain the actual filename? Code:
