I 've built a site for a client using .asp and eveything is working fine
except I cannot figure out how to wrap text around an image. Everything is
pulled from the database using response.write. The code works correctly but
I just can't seem to figure out how to do it? I've been searching for weeks
about info on how to do this - to no avail
I have script pulling text from a databse which is just the name of a file, e.g: test and I have code which puts a hyperlink around it, for example: http://www.myserver/files/test.doc , so that when the user clicks on it the file opens up for them. How do I check that if the name of the file is a particular filename the address is different.
Basically 1: if filename = test1
address = http://www.myserver/files/test1.doc
2: if filename = EXTERNAL
address = http://www.myserver/EXTERNAL.doc
Here's my code so far:
<TD WIDTH=83 class="body"><P><A HREF="http://www.myserver/files/<% Response.Write RSEmps("fileName")%>.doc"><% Response.Write RSEmps("fileName") %></TD>
how to wrap text on a button.
View Replies View RelatedI ran into a little problem with wrapping text and found 'a' solution. The problem was when I read in text from a DB table field to populate a HTML table. I found a line of text to wrap mysteriously after column 37 even when the field was defined with a max character count of 100.
I removed the <td> tag's 'width' attribute and this took care of the wrapping problem.
I hope this will help someone else.

View Replies View RelatedI cannot find any information on how to insert an image into a block of text
and have the text wrap around the image. All if the text and graphics in
the client's site are being pulled from the database using response.write.
When I write straight HTML, it is easy to place an image into a block of
text and align the image right or left, having the text wrap around the
image.
I have long list of names that I would like to wrap across multiple columns (like a newspaper). Are there any suggestions on how to go about this?
View Replies View RelatedIs there a way to prevent IE from forcing a line break? Below in LISTING 2,
you notice the table background image extention of '.jpg' begins a new line,
instead of staying on the same line as it's file name. Same happens with my
javascript onclick event, IE forces a line break and breaks my code. In my
asp code, you notice I'm inserting line breaks, but IE seems to do what it
wants. I should note, the below HTML results is actually 1 table of 40 or so
that asp builds as a string. Code:
I have a recordset containing many fields from one row of data populated by an SQL query.
If I return the entire recordset in one row with the column headings the table would scroll off the right of the screen.
What I want to be able to do is to create several tables, one below the other of five columns each to display the data.
This is fine if I am returning just data, but I want the field.Name as well as the data - which is causing me problems.
I am working on a date function, which takes a YYYY-MM-DD input and splits it into dd,mm,yyyy format. e.g:
string1 = "2006-10-20"
Function stripDate(str)
str_len = len(str)
if str_len = 10 then
str = replace(str, "-","")
str_yr = left(str,4)
str2 = right(str,4)
str_mo = left(str2,2)
str_dy = right(str2,2)
stripDate = str_dy & "," & str_mo & "," & str_yr
else
Exit Function
end if
End Function
test = stripDate(string1)
sample output: 20,10,2006
I then want to pass the sample output into another function, but in order to do that, the date variables must be split with speech marks as follows:
"20","10","2006"
but I can't work out how to include that in the stripDate function so that it wraps the variables in speech marks. Whenever I try to include the speech marks the code returns the usual error about unterminated string constants e.g. if I replace the final line of the above function with this:

When using ASP's FileSystemObject to create text files, I am unable to get user submitted text (in Hebrew) to save as anything other than "?????". The text file is being saved in Unicode and setting the CodePage in ASP proved unsuccessful. Strangely, hard coded Hebrew text in an ASP variable does add to the text file correctly.
Any ideas of why this happens and how to get it to work correctly?
I have a text area which I want to limit the number of words or number of text entered into it. Is this possible?

I have a form on asp page that pulls info from a DB when the page loads.
It them puts the info into text boxes on the page that are editable by the
user.
The only problem I have is say in the description text box it should
read "HP Laserjet 5Si" , it always cuts the text off where it just says "HP"
.. It does this on all the text boxes? I can't seem to figure out why it
is doing it. Here is the sample code:
With quotes around <%= vdesc%>
<td><input name="desc" type="text" id="desc" size="45" value="<%=
vdesc%>"></td>
And I tried it without.
I have text in a field coming from a database. The text has various
forms such as:
text1
text1 or text2
text1 or text2 or text3
text1; or text2
text1; or text2; or text3
etc...
how can I parse this with a reg ex? I tried this:
(.+);? or
but it only captures 1 submatch (text1) and only if theres an "or"
after it
I'd like to get 1 submatch for each piece of text separated by the
"or", just the text itself if there is no or.
Anyone know how to do it?
I have this problem in controlling a text in a Text Area. How can I do that, for example the field size is 200, when it reaches 50 it automatically goes to the next line. Because im having problem when viewing text in my report, it continuesly views in a straight line. Can you give me ASP code for that.

Do you guys know how to parse an input(text) to verify if it contains special characters. The input should accept numbers or letters only.

View Replies View RelatedI have a form with multiple records.
My intention is to have the user click a checkbox for each product he wants.
Then submit the form placing multiple items in his cart.
If I use a text box like the following and enter a 1 for each product,
submit, no problem.
The user gets the products he wants.
<input name="qty" type="text" value="0">
However, if I use the following checkbox code, and assuming the user checks
4 products half way down the page, he will get the first 4 products in the
recordset. If he clicks 1 checkbox, he will always get the first product,
not the product he chose. <input name="qty" type="checkbox" value="1">
What I have found is when I submit the form to a blank test page using
checkoxes or text boxes, there's a considerable difference. The text boxes
deliver a comma delimination for each occurance. The checkboxes only offer
comma delimination for each checkbox that is selected. At this point, I'm
assuming that's the difference between the two and it cannot be changed
through HTML.
