I think you are confusing SQL with ASP. As far as I know there is no wildcard for IF statements in ASP.

So in SQL you could do: SELECT * FROM [table] WHERE tellere = 1 AND modelID <> '%HT'

What you could do in ASP though is to use the INSTR func to return whether the specified string is in the var.

URLs of History Entries

Using the history object, I can navigate "back" and "forwards". BUT what I'd like to do is just to find the URL of a page in the history and NOT navigate to it. Is it possible please?

This violates security policies set by JavaScript. NS will let you have it; however, if requested. With IE, AFAIK you're out of luck when getting URLs more than one deep unless you invisibly track this with fames or something.

In NS...

<script>
netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead");
history.previous[1];
history.previous[2];
...	// and so forth
// history.length will give you the amount of elements in the array
</script>

BTW, you better not use this info for anything malicious!

ISAPI file reading..

13-Aug-02 22:59

I am developing a Web Image Viewer so that our customers can view images that we have scanned for them from anywhere.

I am trying to access the image (jpeg) files that are stored on another machine on the network from my ISAPI extension but I cannot.

I have shared the Image folder, giving permissions to everyone, and have mapped a drive letter to it on the local machine, so the path to the Images looks like:

V:\Images\Archived\fiename.jpg

I have trapped the System error message, using FormatMessage( )and get "Access Denied".

If I have the Images on the same machine as the Web Server, it works OK e.g. D:\Images\Archived\filename.jpg

Any ideas??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanx.

Try adding the 'V:\Images\Archives\' folder as a virtual directory in IIS on the server machine.

ISAPI File Writing

13-Aug-02 8:09

Hi,
I'm writing a ISAPI program for a company project. The project requires that I don't use a database to save the user input. Instead I want to write the user data into a disk file on the server using CFile, is this possible?? I tried using CFile and writing it into a directory on the server that has write permissions, however all I get is a Exception in filecore.h.
Thanks for your help!!

Problem with LoadControl in ASP.NET

Henk13-Aug-02 2:52

Henk

13-Aug-02 2:52

Hello,

I have a rather nasty problem. I have an aspx page. This page loads an web user control using LoadControl. The control that is loaded also does a loadcontrol to load another control. And then this Control does again a loadcontrol. The Controls contain tables. By using findcontrol I can find the right tablecell to add the control to. On of the controls that is loaded by antoher control contains a checkbox, and when this one gets loaded I get an error saying that I must have a form with runat-server attribute. This is ofcourse present in the aspx page that starts all the dynamic loading.

so, summarized:

I have ControlA, ControlB, and ControlC

My aspx page loads ControlA, ControlA then loads ControlB and finds the right cell to add to the control colletion of that cell. Then ControlB loads ControlC and does also a findControl, but since ControlC has a <asp:checkbox runat="server"/"> the error "Control '_ctl0__ctl0__ctl1__ctl0' of type 'CheckBox' must be placed inside a form tag with runat=server. " occurs.

Is there a solution to this problem?

Regular Expression Hell

13-Aug-02 1:29

This is not really a strictly topical question, but this seemed the most appropriate forum to use.

I need a regular expression that would fail if a string:

a) contains white space
b) contains any non-textual character or 0-9 (i.e. not a-b, ê..., etc)

I have figured it out for white space, 0-9, and a-b, but cannot for the life of me figure out the last part. I have read more documentation than most people read books in a month and I just don't get it. How? Confused | :confused:

Is the only way to use a really long [abcde....êçå...]?

Can't you simply do the following?

[a-zA-Z\xC1-\x259]+

, or whatever range you need? I'm not sure I'm understand the question entirely, but I think this is how you'd do it. Don't know what Regular Expression parser you're using, but Javascript only supports the standard ASCII set (0x00 - 0xFF).

Hope this helped.

I am currently trying to develop the website design area of my own company. In order to be able to do this realistically I need some good reference sites.

With this in mind I am currently offering a limited time, free web site design service. Go to http://www.salamandersoftware.biz/services/freeweb.htm and fill in the form or send an email detailing your requirements to freeweb@salamandersoftware.biz.

The offer will probably be open for a week or two and I will then review the submissions and choose probably four or five sites to develop. I'm looking for a good mixture, so low-graphics, database-driven, graphical UI, etc. Let me know what you're looking for (possibly with URL of sites you like the look-and-feel of) and I'll see what I can come with Smile | :)

This offer is limited to the initial web site design and implementation and does not include ongoing maintenance or re-design.
Submission of a design request does not guarantee acceptance under this offer, though all requests will be reviewed.

Derek Lakin.

Updateable queries

9-Aug-02 15:08

I've just upgraded to XP Pro/IIS from Win98/PWS. I put my website in wwwroot, changed the permissions on the database folder to 'read and write' so I can modify my databases (Access 2000). But alas, I get a 'query must be updateable' error!
I went into the wwwroot folder using explorer and went to the databases folder's properties. I don't have a 'security' tab (Am I supposed to? I do on W2K) and I can't uncheck the readonly option!
My queries are like:

UPDATE table SET field1='value1', field2='value2' WHERE ID = myid
INSERT INTO table (field1, field2) VALUES ('value1', 'value2')

Has anyone had any problem similar to this or have any ideas? I'm stuck.

I'm in my W2K now but as I remember you have to go to
folder options--->View

Then I think one of the last options change the simple security to other ones,then you have 'security tab' in xp too.

Have you set up your DB connection using ODBC? Putting your database in the wwwroot folder and hard coding the path is not a good idea. The reason I suspect you are getting this error is because you didn't set up connectivity with ODBC, and your database has a security level that is higher then the default IIS account so it won't allow read/write access. To change this either 1. Set up a ODBC connection(the right way) or 2. make your Access Database security level one that the default IIS account can use(the dangerous way).

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
