I'm trying to submit a form field to an Access Db but I'm having a few problems, as it doesn't work.
However, when I change the emailbeta variable manually, and browse to the page, it works fine!?!?!?
I'm including each page within the index page, so I dont know if thats causing the problem, I've included all the code below. Code:
I have a very simple form with text fields which I would like to append the data to a text file.
Here is the code I have written, but I just keep getting an HTTP 500 - Internal server error
If I remove all the code and just leave the response.write at the end then that works, so ASP is working.
I am very new to ASP, so have no idea where to start.
<%
'declare varibales to hold info
dim email,firstname,subject,comments,separater,textfil epath
const ForAppending = 8
separater = "|"
'sub to call to add to text file
sub addToTextFile (byval textdata)
set FSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set myFile = fso.OpenTextFile(textfilepath, ForAppending, True)
myFile.Writeline textdata
myFile.Close
set FSO = Nothing
'grab form fields
email = request.form ("Email")
firstname = request.form ("FirstName")
subject = request.form ("Subject")
comments = request.form ("Comments")
'add to text file
data = email & separater & firstname & separater & subject & separater & comments
textfilepath = Server.MapPath( "results.txt" )
addToTextFile data
Response.Write ("<p>Thank you your response.</p>")
%>
I have a form that contains another form. For some reason the "nested" form
won't submit via document.FormName.submit(); it says "object is null or not
a value" or something like that. When I place the form outside of the
original form, it works just fine...but that's not really an option here.
Any ideas why it will submit when it's outside of the form, but not when
it's within a form?
I need to submit in the same page two forms to two different ASP-pages.
I created two forms, each with hidden input and a submit button. But it
doesn't work. Nothing happens with the second form.
Does it exist a way to do that?
I currently have an asp page that ask for an email address and then with selection values runs a stored procedure.
Everything runs fine but the concern is that with enough records the processing limit will be exceeded by the web server and it will cause the page to crash.
Is there a way with ASP and MSSQL to send a request to process a stored procedure but have the processing of the asp continue while the sql runs its cousre? My sp will already email the user when processing is complete I just need the asp to send the request for it to be run but not try and run it while the next page loads.
I am creating a website which has a form for registration. I am not using any database or server side coding. The form details should be sent through an email to me. I tried the action = "emailto:me@myaddress.com" but it only fires my outlook when the submit button is clicked.if it could be done the way I want?
View Replies View RelatedI don't know if this is possible or if it even makes sense, but this is what I want to do. I have a page with a form to fill in a timesheet for a user. Depending on how many users did a "job", a form will appear on the page for each user. So basically, you could have 3 forms, all with the same names etc.
and the only thing distinguishing them is a hidden input with userID and different data for each user. Now what I want the person to be able to do is fill out all the forms on the page and submit them at one time, rather than one at a time.
Then in the asp, I'd like to iterate through each form that was submitted (obv I don't know how many were so I assume I'd go through a collection if one exists) and process them one after the next. Is this possible and if so, how do I submit them all together and how do I then go through them on the asp side.
Currently I'm able to run the insert with a form that is fully filled. My problem is I want to allow the user to leave some fields and be able to submit the form.Any ideas how I should do that?
View Replies View RelatedI have a form where students can enter their evaluations which are sent to a database. The asp code has been working flawlessly for more then two years, but suddenly when they hit the Submit button, nothing is written to the database.
Instead, the code of the submitting script is shown. No error message is shown. As far as I can tell the code is unchanged, but obviously something has happened. I would be grateful for hints on where to start looking.
if there is a way to submit all checkboxes (names and values)no mater if they are off or on (checked / unchecked). Anybody would know some scripts or tricks to get this working.
View Replies View RelatedI have an asp page with a form on it, the corm contains some list boxes that populate depending on a previous listbox choice.
for example, list box 1 is populated from a database, and user makes a chooice, form is submitted to it's self, and listbox 2 is populated from database, dependant on coice in listbox 1.
fair enough, that works a treat. but to get this working I have used the <form action = "this_page.asp" > tag, and in the first listbox, I use
<select name="F_12025" size="1" id="F_12025" onchange="products.submit()">
my problem is as follows, at a certain point, the user has completed the form and must click the submit button, to sent the form to a thirdparty dll.
I cannot find a way to submit the form to a different page than is speccified in the form tag, (in this case not a page, but a dll, but what's in a name eh?)
Maybee a little bit of topic, but is it possible to stay on the
submitting page once you've clicked submit.
This is to get processing done on page B when you submit on page A,
and the page should not change. Normally I use a response.redirect to
the submitting page, but that can't be done in one case.
i wish to enable users to submit an image on one of the fields on the form within an asp page.
essentially i suppose they would submit it as an attachment though it would be entered and stored in the access dbase, from which it would be pulled in connection with specific text fields.
i'm using ultradev though trying to use an input field though it seems to talk about retrieving data. can this image as a field collection by done on the input with asp form ?
how I can submit a fomr into an iFrame on the same page?
example:
I have a page called search.asp and in it is a form with one text box and a submit button.
Once the submit is pressed, I want the iFrame to be updated with the results from the database.
(I tried adding target=[iFrame name] to the form tag, but this loads the whole page into the frame)
I have a form that currently input data into an access db. The first thing that I would like to happen when the Submit button is clicked, is to check one column in the database to see if there are any duplicates before uploading any data. So my question is, how?
View Replies View RelatedI want to be able to post data from a form on one server to another server at regular intervals. I know the XML parser is built around this kind of technology and can post information to a server.
Is there a way of either posting form data to a seperate server without user interaction either using the XML parser or by generating a form and using some JavaScript to autosubmit a form once the page has loaded.
Is there a way to get data submitted to the server without using a form? At the moment I have a very complex form that takes a very long time to load (about 30 seconds), and at intervals I want to send save commands back to the server so that the dynamic information on the page can be saved. The problem is that if I do it the normal way it's frustrating for the user because they have to wait another 30 seconds for the page to reload.
I've also tried using a hidden IFrame and submitting that, but it slows the page's initial load down even more and is causing a bit of an administration nightmare. Also, the program stalls while it waits for a response (success/failure) to come back to the client.
I have stripped it down to the basics for example purposes.
At the moment, if user completes all required textboxes, it submits to itself. I need to set it so that if the form is completed properly, it sends all the values to a validate page where I will set up my connection etc and submit to a db.
Where am I going wrong and how can I get the form (after doing the validation checks) to submit to another page? Code:
We have created a form for high school student submit their scholarship essay (name, address, and textbox (essay) )before they submit his/her assay to the DB, we would like to give them an option to review it, if he/she wants to edit/change, they click “Back”, otherwise click “Submit”. How can we hide the information in the preview page (from the form to the preview page)?
View Replies View RelatedI am developing a page that when it loads up, it will display certain information from an SQL statement using preset values. However when the user is using the page they can then use drop down menus, to choose different year, suppliers etc, the page then needs to reload showing this new information.
I think it is possible to do this using the response.redirect, and direct it back to itself, with all the new variables. However some information will stay the same and I just wondered if it was possible to only reload the information that was required to save on server time running sql statements taht need not run.
I am trying to send information that I collect using an ASP form to a fax
number that I specify somewhere. Can someone please tell me whether I can do
that using ASP code and if so, how can I do it and what kind of applications
I need to have if any.

i have tried changing the type to button instead of submit it still doesnt work in internet explorer it doesnt give an error but it just doesnt submit the page here is the code can someone tell me whats wrong in it Code:
I have a form with 2 text boxes, both of which add to a database and make up a dynamic page, i.e. page title & page text.
I want however, before the user can add the page, for the page to be previewed in a popup window. So effectively there'd be a button which when clicked would open up the new window, load the preview.asp page I have already built, and display the contents of what was typed into the text boxes.
So basically I need to pass the variables through to this preview.asp page - anybody know how I can do this?
I want a form to submit to a different page depending on what selection has been made in a dropdown option box. However something is going wrong my code looks as follows: Code:
View Replies View RelatedWe have a facility on our intranet where users can log problems, comments &
suggestions about the site to a DB.
I'm building a page that lists the outstanding entries, and allows use to
mark any number of entries as being 'done'
That is, we have a number of rows, with the last field in each row being a
checkbox to indicate the entry has been dealt with. At the end, there is an
Update button which submits the form.
The question is.. how to handle this...?
The best solution I have thought of so far is to use the record ID as the ID
for each checkbox. Then to Split() the resulting Request.Form into an array,
loop through the array picking out the record IDs.
It's not a bad solution, but I figured this must be a fairly common
procedure and that somebody might have a slicker way of doing it...
I'm trying to submit a form to the same page. Eg. (page name = test.asp)
<form action="test.asp" method="post" name="testform">
<input type="text" name="testval1">
<input type="submit" value="Go">
</form>
At the very top of the page I try to get the value by saying:
newtest = Request.Form("testval1")
I got the example from here
The trouble is, my page instantly throws an error. I think it's because when I first load the page up, it's obviously not coming from a form submit! Can anyone shed any light on a way around this?
My form contains a drop down list of univ. campuses and depending
upon the campus user is selecting, I am selecting the courses offered
in that campus from database (MS Acccess) and showing those in a
different drop down list below.
Is there any way that I can access that campus-list value before
submitting it to database?
Also, please give me solutions in VBScript and no javascript. That's my
Prof.s restriction. One of my friend told, there is no way this can be
done. But I am sure there must be some solution. Microsoft is not that less
creative.
I have a list box with five values in it. These are essentially account groups. The user will select one of these values and click on a button. This will update a second list with specific account names depending on what the user selected on the first list.
These account names will be retrieved from an SQL database. Below is the code which sets up the first list and the button. Code:
When I press enter on my Password field in my asp page it submits the form. If I do this in a straight HTML page it doesn't submit the form. I don't want the form to be submitted until the submit button is clicked. Has anyone got any ideas on this please?
Also, I know that the Java code to submit a form is frmForm.Submit(). Is there an asp equivalent? Is there an alternative to using Repsonse.Redirect?
I would like some help in having the form check to see if the
selected course is available before submitting the info to the database and
instructs them to choose another date if the course is closed. I have a qry
that does a check and brings the information on availability. Any way to run that qry
-check and send back the message or submit the confirmtion?
I have an ASP form that has a field that automatically places the current date into it. It uses the function Date().
The problem I am having is when the form is submitted into my Access database the date is coming out wrong in the Access field. The datatype for the field is Date/Time but it still is not coming out right.
Example: the date in the ASP form shows as 12/19/2006 and the entry in the Access form shows 12:00:27 AM. If I change the format of the Date/Time field to Short Date, the result is: 12/30/1899.
Does anyone know how I can get the data that is posted to the Access database to come out the same as the ASP form?
Can someone tell me how to submit a form from within a scripted page without anyone
having to manually click submit ?
Is this something that XML is needed for ? If so, I still need to know how to do it (G).
A coworker is creating a form. The user fills in some numerical data. We would like to present them with a Calculate button that they can use to submit their numbers and be presented with the same information but also with the totals at the bottom. BTW, we cannot use JavaScript so it must all be done using server-side ASP.
That part is fine but we also want to provide them with a Submit button in addition to the calculate button. Now, I realize that if both buttons are contained within the same <form> tag, there can be only one action URL.
We toyed with the idea that if name=calculate, display the original form with the fields filled in and the calculations done and if name=submit, redirect to the thank you page but given that the method is post, then the redirect would not transfer the post data. If the method was get, then the redirect could include the query string data in the URL but that is not the case.
