Removing Zeros
Does ASP have any function to remove ZEROS from LEft??
or shoud i write one?
000025120 -> 25120
000000012 -> 12
Leading Zeros
I need to display the time in military form. I came up with the following:Code:
<%= (hour(now)) & ":" & Minute(now()) & ":" & Second(now()) %>
And this works pretty well, except I get things like this:
8:5:2 for 08:05:02
14:2:17 for 14:02:17 (2:02:17 PM)
How do I get the leading zeros before the number if it is less than 10?
Preserve Zeros
How can I read back info from a database into an input field (in case it's to be edited) that will preserve the zeros to the right of the decimal?The zeros are being preserved in the access database when I have a look at it there. I have the field defined as type "Currency" to two decimal places.
I want to preserve those zeros to the right of the decimal point when I read the record into an input tag on a web page.I am trying to use "FormatCurrency(request.form(exp, 2))" and "FormatNumber(request.form(exp, 2))" but it doesn't help.
Date With Zeros
is there any way to cause a date such as 6/5/2004 to show up as 06/05/2004? Just didn't know if there was an ASP function to do this or not.
Access Db Removes Zeros
i have found a problem on my webite is when i try to enter details of a new book
into the DB, i input the ISBN as its uniqueID, the problem is that if the ISBN starts with a zero,
(i.e. 07987654) the DB will remove the zero from the start of the ISBN (i.e. 7977654).
Can someone tell me how to force the DB to store the whole number including the zero at the start?
Leading Zeros Being Chopped
im inserting some data into a number field but when i have something like 0000006 it chops it to 6 in the database. and not always are the same number of zeros present. why im not sure just what i have to work with.
I understand that i could make the db value varchar and just validate it by doing something like Isnumeric. But is there a way to keep my zeros but leave it a number field.
Number Formating :: Adding Zeros In The Beginning
I have a querystring that passes through the value 001 for example, the form on the receiving page need to display that number but with 1 added to it. i have
dim strnum
strnum = request.querystring("value")
strnum = strnum + 1
when displayed <%=strnum%> shows 2 instead of 002, and the zero's are very important, is there any number formating trick i dont know or another way of doing this?i thought about coding the first two zero's in before i call the strnum but this would mess things up when i get to 010 etc.

View Replies View RelatedXMLHTTP Strip
I'm using XMLHTTP to perform a simple screen scraping job.
When I try to have it "scrape" lines with embeded CSS declarations, it
renders them incorrectly, stripping the leading period. Consequently, my CSS
doesn't work.Here's how I'm calling it, but I don't think my implementation is the
problem.
Dim srvXmlHttp
Set srvXmlHttp = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
srvXmlHttp.open "GET", TearURL, false
srvXmlHttp.send()
If srvXmlHttp.status <> 200 Then
Response.Write "No Server Response"
Response.End
End If
Dim strRetval5
strRetval5 = srvXmlHttp.responseText

View Replies View RelatedStrip Characters
I have an ASP page which has a form for user to input some information and it gets stored in an Access database. The problem i am having is when a person enters a name with a special character, like Macy's, it gives a Jet database error.
What i am looking for is for a way to remove special characters from the form field in question, like apostrophes, when they tab to the next field. So if they input Macy's, when they go to the next field the previous field gets updated to Macys instead.
ASP Include/strip Body Tag?
We have an unusual situation at the USC School of Medicine; we have to
covert every Web page to a template. The template is too wide to print and a
lot of our students print lectures, notes, etc. We thought we could keep to
the template and draw in the content from other files by using includes. BUT
these files are HTML files and therefore, have Body commands in them. If
this could work, we could put a printable link back to the other page and it
would print. Seems like a great solution except for the extra body commands.
We are using ASP for our scripting.
1. How much of a boondoggle will it be if the files have two body commands
in them. How many browsers would it break?
2. Is there a scripting way around this without creating some objects?
3. Is there something out there -- shareware or commercial -- that would fix
this problem.
4. Could something be done about this using pearl, for example?
We'd really like to do it this way because we can have the users create the
content, use the same file names all the time, thus overwriting the old
file, and the user would never get a chance to screw up the template.
Strip Time From Date?

Regular Expression :: Strip Numbers Before Alphabets
I think a regular expression maybe the solution to the problem I have. My problem is I am pulling a list from a database which I want to list alphabetically. The problem is, the records are stored with a number before them:
eg."762348 - RecordA" --> So I want just the "RecordA" bit so I can list alphabetically.
What I want to do is strip off everything at the beginning up to the first Alphabetic character. Is a regular expression the way to go?

VB Variable
I've been given an ASP app written with server side javascript. This app needs to get the username of the person currently logged in to windows (Request.ServerVariables("AUTH_USER") in vbscript). I found a way to get this variable in javascript, but then it wouldn't let me split it (server kept saying method not supported). So I've gave up on getting the username with javascript, and have set variables in VBscript at the top of my page. How do I access those variables within the javascript portion?
