VBScript/ASP Related: Ampersand Assignment
Is this a "legal" assignment in VBScript? strSearchChar5 = "&"
Once I do this in script tags, it throws the rest of my page off, as far as the colors in Dreamweaver. Would the lack of colors mean anything?
The code that uses this variable works beautifully, yet when I use request.form on the following page, nothing shows when I use Response.Write.
This is what shows when I use Response.Write:
UPDATE jobs SET [SubmitDate]='',[category]='',[type]=''' ,[job_title]='',[job_number]='',[openings]=' ',[address]=' ',[city]=' ',[zip]=' '

<% hour = Request("controlname") %> will yield the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01F5)
Illegal assignment: 'hour'
However, if I declare hour, then it is fine.
<%
Dim hour
hour = Request("controlname")
%>
But I think in VBScript,declaration of a variable is optional?That means we can use the variable without writing "Dim hour" ??

I'm trying to use a popup window initiated from javascript to display pictures. Some of the directories and pictures contain &'s in the name or path. I've read the posts about Encoding but I cannot seem to get the get this working. Encoding the path to replace the & with %26 just gives me a page not found.
<script language="javascript">
function NewWindow(url, w, h)
{
url = "http://intranet/Marketing_Photos/" + url;
window.open(url,"_blank","width=" + w + ",height=" + h + ",left=0,top=0,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes");
}
</script>
url is the subdir and picture name, i.e. subdir/pic.jpg
Mareting_Photos is an IIS Virtual Directory pointing to a different server.
Everything works, the pictues display, except when I pass a url with an & in the path then I get the page not found error.
I can type in http//intranet/Marketing_Photos/SomeDir/Some%26PicName.jpg (replacing the & with %26) in the browser address bar but I get a page not found.

I am trying to pass a variable in the URL to a popup window. One of the variables in the URL has a value of S&CSB. Whenever I try to get at this variable it returns only "S". I did URL encode the "&" ampersand (%26) and (& and (S%26amp%3B), so I don't get why it's not working. Looks to me like ASP Request.Querystring is parsing from the ampersand on. Code:

My ASP page contains the following VBScript code:
<%
zipCode = Request.Form("zip")
%> <br>zip: <%= zipCode %>, rf: <%= Request.Form("zip") %>
When I enter "abc" into the "zip" field on the form, I get the
following output:
zip: , rf: abc
Why doesn't the first statement assign the "abc" string to the
variable "zipCode"? What am I not seeing?

I'm fighting a bit of code which I simply don't understand why it won't work. originalurl is the referring page from which someone clicked a form submit. I grab originalurl using Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER")
What I need to do is to grab the value following idcategory=. Sometimes there are other querystring values following that, and my code works fine. But in the instances where it is the last querystring value, it fails on this error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f5'
Illegal assignment: 'gbdgCatQSwork'
originalurl = http://www.mydomain.com/store/pc/vie...p?idcategory=4
gbdgURLlen = 84 (this is the length of the entire URL)
gbdgURLlen2 = 1 (this is the length of the string that follows "idcategory=")
gbdgCatQSwork = mid(originalurl,gbdgURLlen-gbdgURLlen2,gbdgURLlen2)
What I want is that gbdgCatQSwork would contain the value (in this case "4") so that I can continue my process. Could someone please shed light upon what I am missing here?

I've just installed ASPXMLRPC library and testing their main function:
xmlRPC ("URL", "command_name", params)
The function converts all parameters to XML, sends a request to third-
party server and receives XML response. It seems to be getting
response fine. But when I call the function like this:
myresp = xmlRPC ("http://someurl.com", "get", paramList)
I get error on this line:

i have a table with sno, userid, name, age, level
where level means the type of grade a person has like A,B it may even be Numbers on a scale of 1 to 5
the sno is declared as a rowid datatype
if i want to update any record i have to give the existing userid ( primary key ) and even update the primary key if there are no duplicates (obviously)
so when the userid is entered i am selecting the rowid where userid = request("")
and storing that rowid value in a variable to perform update operation in the next few steps
i am getting a type mismatch when i am doing the assignment
is there somethin wrong in the code ( that i need to check again ) or that sort of assignment cant be done
( i am still tryin to get it right as i write this thread )
i have one more ques: does the rowid value remain constant that is when i do a delete operation on one row and then subsequently a update operation on another row in the same table will the rowid's get mixed up and mess up my data.

Is there a way to perform multiple actions on a SUBMIT with ASP?
Example, I have a submit button that when it is pressed, it performs an action where information is stored in the database using a stored procedure. Can I also write out a flat file of the information saved separately or something parallel without hendering the original submit? I would want to do these two requests at the same time on the submit. Is it possible? Can someone give me some guidance on this?

This is the code I have so far:
I take the email address and split at the "@" symbol. Then I split at the "." sign to get the firstname and lastname.
Most of the times, the email address is of the format:
FirstName.LastName@company.com
However at times, the email address can be just firstname@company.com
At such instances the code fails, how do I check for the instance of . before I split it again?

Access db, one table, 12 or so fields (id, item_name, category, manufacture, price, description etc.)... (ecomm site).
When displaying the details of a particular item I want to display "related items" below it. All I do now is pull info depending on the item id then display the size, dimensions, description, photo etc.
Lets say the item is a Large Blue Widget, i want to display related items... say "Large Widget Covers" or/and "Large Widget Accessories"... you get the idea... cross selling
So, I am looking for ideas on how to simplify the display of related items.

I am designing a Web site with about 500 - 600 pages of festivals on it and would like opinions on two ASP subjects. I have designed about 20 pages or so as of now. These are the contact us, FAQ, about us pages and such. I also have a template to go by for each festival's page. But I have two problems I need fixed before I start to replicate.
(1) SSI and styles - There are four sections to each page. I use SSI (ASP virtual version) for the top, bottom and a small section of featured festivals (which is above the bottom) on each page. Between the top and featured festivals is the actual page. This way I can change a link on the top or bottom and it is fixed on all pages.
But, I have an enormous amount of styles listed (all styles on four pages) in the code from each page's fonts. Each page's styles are called something different. For example, the festival page itself has the styles as normal, ".style1." But the styles on the top the links, which once again is an ASP include, would be called ".style1top." I used that approach because .style1 on the festival page and top links could be different.
It works, but I have dirty code and I want the site to be as Google friendly as possible. I have thought about adding all the styles to a page and using it as an ASP include on all pages, but that would have way too many styles each page and be even dirtier. What is the best practice for this? Code:

When adding i am checking if that name already exists in the DB and if so i am poping up the message that name already existing.
It is working perfectly in my win2000prof and i have tested in both in my localhost and ftp servers and in both places it is working as i ahve expected.
But when the same application is opened in winxp i have a strange problem coming. When i add a new list , then it checks for the name and what happens is every time i add a new one and even if there is no matching record or matching name avialable for that record, javascript popups saying "Favourite List Name Already Exists" and the strangest part is the insert part also working. That is both if and else part are working together. I am getting this problem only in XP. Code:

Do you think it's posible to DISABLE a checkbox and the value associated with it, based on the DATE apearing in one of the columns in my database? Example,
I will loop through a list of series of products from my database, and I will put an automatic checkbox infront of any row in my form. I want ASP to automaticly disable the checkbox (can't be clicked on) if the date associated with it is older than 3 years.

I have a MS Access database composed of a few related tables. I'm trying to link this with a website so that new data may be entered remotely via the website. I am using MS Frontpage, which has a simple wizard for this, but the wizard does not allow for updating multiple tables from the one web form. I have started learning ASP and VB, but all the books don't really discuss adding records to several related tables at one go. How do I do this?
Conceptually, I understand that you can't have a new record in the child table without a corresponding record in the parent record. It there a way of submitting several forms to the same record by 'indicating' which parent record each field is linked to? Is there a simple scripting code ? Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated, or just point me to where I might find the information I need?

What i'm looking for is an asp function which automatically runs every day at e.g. 12:00 AM and then updates a database. So no user or external event is involved to trigger the function. It operates stand alone. Hope there are some code examples available.
