I'm using a session variable to store a log in so the user only has to log in once every time they come to the site for multiple features that require a password check.
What I'm doing is using one central login page that pops up when they click on whatever locked feature they're going for. The password form's action is back to this same page, which has this code towards the top: Code:
I want to maintain the user's session variable while moving from HTTP to HTTPS. I learned that you can store the sesison in a database, but I am not sure about the logic behind this method.Can someone explain how this works?
View Replies View RelatedI've spent ages hunting for this but no joy, another user suggested cookies, but was ideally hoping to use Session Variables so its just stored while a user is on the site.
Basically I need to capture a section of a URL i.e.
www.myurl.com?ref=thisiswhatIneed!
I then need to simply save 'thisiswhatIneed' into a session variable and then enter it into a form box on another page (which I know how to do).
I just don't know how to get/store the part of the URL?
Want to trim, replace etc... a variable then pass it to the javascript, how can I do this? I can not put the javascript outside the loop without splitting it to put the onfocus part seperatly which I don't fancy doing.
Any ideas how to get it to to the ASP then JS? I would have though it would do it that way but there we are. Code:

I am doing an update form which opens 2 SQL connections (its easier for me to do this cause I mess up joins to a significant degree, that and performance is not a big worry, eitherway).
<notes> Both connections are open, one is called rs, the other is called articlers. I have 2 databases (named database1, and database2), and I have two different SQL strings (SQL and articleSQL, the problem comes in the 2nd string and in storing a variable. Code:
I was looking for a method to store the contents of text file within a variable. So far I am able to read the text file and output the results using the write method. Going a step further I also wanted to replace a particular string within those same results using the "Replace" function. This works as well.
My question, how can I store the final result that write's to the screen so that I can reference it later. If you run this code, I basically want to take the verbiage that displays on the sreen and place it into a variable. Code:
We are running windows 2000 with dot.net framework 1.1 on IIS 5.1. This is an NLB architecture with the session being stored in an SQL DB. We have been coding and deploying using ASP.NET with no problems however the 'powers that be' have recently bought an online booking application which has been coded using classic asp.
We have set the session location in the machin config of the framework stating
mode="SQLServer". Will this ASP use this or continue to store the code InProc?
Is it possible to store session state for each separate user in a separate process? We have a COM component that we want to use that is not thread safe and has to be isolated. We would like to store this in a separate process for each user.
View Replies View RelatedI'm wondering where the data is stored for Session objects. Is it passed to the browser, and then passed back to the server during page requests? Or, is the Session data always on the server, and the browser simply passes the server it's unique session id?

View Replies View RelatedI know that cookies can store an array of values, which can be accessed like this:
tempid = Request("cookiename")(i)
Is it possible to use session variables in the same way? Store a array of values in the same session variable and access them on another page by indexing?
I've looked around alot and I've not found anything suggesting that this is possible.
Right now I'm using a single set of cookies to store info on a series of purchaces of the same type of item. I'm hoping to use session variables to replace the cookies.
Does anyone know for certain if this is not possible?

I have created a session variable.... and i have to write code to check for
this session for each ASP webpage in my website....Is there a alternative
I do not want to repeat the same code for valid session.... in each page..
I first create a session variable 'client' in the login.asp file
The login.asp file opens a file (xxx.asp) with an include file
If I write
<!--#include file="../../../data/" & session("client") &
"/language_ger.inc"-->
I have a message stating that the application can't find the file.
If I write the path without the variable (" & session("client") & ")
<!--#include file="../../../data/eurovini/language_ger.inc"-->
it works without any problem.
Question
- is there is an error in the syntax?
- is it possible to include this kind of variable in an include file.
And if not, any idea to get the same result?
I'm new and I hope I explain this correctly.I have a products page which populate products dynamically with checkboxes. when the form is submitted, I check for selected boxes using the split(). My problem is, products page submits the form to client.asp, and within that page is client info. then the client page is submitted to confirmOrders.asp, which will display client info, and products selected. the split() works fine within the client.asp page. I'm trying to assign the checkboxs to a Session variable and use it on confirmOrder.asp. Then display the session variable on confirmOrders.asp page. I know I can do everything in one shot with confirmOrders.asp, but the client wants to display the client.asp page then the latter. hmm...hope this makes sense.
<client.asp>
Session("myarray") = Request.Form("chkproduct")
<orderConfirm.asp>
strP = Session("myarray")
p_Array = Split(strP,",")
For i = 0 to UBound(p_Array)
Response.Write p_Array(i) & "<br>"

Is there a simple way to store session variable on the client-side

I want to keep the value of user entry on the text field of an html form

Quit simple: I try to make a session variable on a hiddenframe like:
document.contexthiddenform.URLattach.value = URLvar;
document.contexthiddenform.target = 'hiddenframe';
document.contexthiddenform.action = 'context_hiddenframe.asp';
document.contexthiddenform.submit();
}
</script>
<%
session("sesURLattach") = Request("URLattach")
Response.Write "<script>" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "alert('" & session("sesURLattach") & "');" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "alert('" & Session.Timeout & "');" & vbcrlf
Response.Write "</script>" & vbcrlf
%>
</form>
The value of session variable is shown and the timeout value (60) shown as well. But immediately I get the error message "a timeout has been occurred, you have to log in again". If I make the highlighted sentence comment then I don't get the error.
Has somebody an idea why I receive immediately the timeout error?
A user field called 'Custom1' exists in my data base. This user field is used to hold a URL path to a custom download page for clients. Each client has their own unique URL which directs them to specific locations.What would the proper format be for the variable:
=Session("Cutstom1")
to be able to be displayed as a hyperlink with the label: "DOWNLOADS" while at the same time sending the current user to the 'value' / 'path' to which the Custom1 field contains? I am not an advanced coder and am just starting out with basics.
I assume that mostly,asp programmers use their own session variable to know whether a user is to be considered is-logged-on(together with a home-written log-on form web page).
However, I wonder if there is a convention for the name of such a variable?And does asp/iis have a built-in is-logged-on status variable? For example when IIS is to render a normal html page with an acl that invokes a basic authentication, can I as an asp programmer make use of that status variable, and can I write to it to force a logout programatically?
So, this is not about it there is a session as such, it is about beeing logge-on inside an asp-session. I've looked around but haven't found any good info on this.
I have drop down for selection of council - it is then passed to a session variable - it works fine to display the variable, but when I put it into a hidden field, if the value was Milwaukee it is fine, but if the value was Green Hills, it only puts Green in the hidden field. How can I fix this - I need it to put Green Hills in the hidden field.

I have just moved to another isp host and some of my pages use session variables. I have a session variable, amongst others that hold the username and customer number to display data. The session variable value keeps disappearing giving me ADODB.Fielderror '800a0bcd' errors.
If i hot the refresh button a few times the session variable data comes back. Somebody please tell me they've experienced this 'cos i'm losing my mind ! I've updated the page to show the variable, and it does and i've removed underscores from filenames (apparently a possible problem with IIS 6)
i'm using the dundas freelib upload code to upload files in my website. when the user choses to upload a file a new window is opened and the upload procedure goes fine and the file is uploaded successfully. but the problem is the i want to know the name of the file in the parent window to save it in the database.
i tried to use a session variable which contains the name of the file but it dosen't work. the parent window contains a form which is used to insert new data in the database so i can't use the upload window to insert the filename in the database.
i don't know how to retreive the session variable from the previious page..i have also problem querystring application because the browser execute very slowly..and sometimes page will not be displayed.
View Replies View RelatedI need to create an array with a session variable. According to my book, the following should work,. but if fails

i m receiving username from the user using form's post method (request.form("username"))and then created session variable as follow..
Code:
username = request.form("username")
session("username") = username
on other page i get username from session variable as follow.
Code:
username = session("username")
this workes fine when i run it on the same PC that is hosting my page(on which IIS is running)..however problem arises when i request page through different PC in the LAN.Nothing is assigned to variable username.
Can I prevent session varaible shared by the new opened browser? For example, if the user has login and viewing a page, when he opens another browser, the user has to login again if he want to veiw the same page in the new browser.
