View Replies View RelatedI have to develop an online quiz on my website. the site is developed in ASP.
i have a access database of the questions, the multiple ans.s and the correct ans. every quest. has an unique id.
i want a way by which any 10 'unique' quests. will be selected from the database everytime an user takes the test.

The script acts very very strange. On the first run, it seems that everything is ok, but the page freezes on half [the blue bar on bottom of browser]. If I'll stop the script, on the second run, the page loads very quick, but nothing happens.

I want to provide random image on my asp page. the image will display according to products searched by user.
e.g.
if user enter pharma machine in search box, in result page the banner of pharma company will display. i.e. the banner of manufaturer/exporter of pharma machine will display.
for this i have comapny info table in database
table: comapny_info
fields in comapny_info:
company_name
products (comapny products)
description (company_description)
banner (yes/no)
dusring registration, comapny has to specify whether it wants banner or not. so if there is yes in banner and prodcuts match the search string then banner will display.
this is according to the product seaarched by user.
any idea?

View Replies View RelatedOn my index page I have got an area for one product to be displayed randomly from the
database. I have got it workign, but there is one problem i cant get my head around, here is the code so far:
' Initialize ASP RND() function
Randomize()
intRandomNumber = Int (1000*Rnd)+1
strsql = "SELECT TOP 1 art_Artist, art_Title, Rnd(" & -1 * (intRandomNumber) & "*cat_ID)" &_
"FROM eventDisplay " &_
"ORDER BY 3"
The code above isnt working and its when i try and draw out more that one value, as in art_Artist and art_Title.
It works fine if all I want is art_Artist, but as i said when i try to draw out more than one value the randomize function doesnt work.
I’m having problems on how to randomiz numbers and delete the ones that have been displayed.
My first step is to take some numbers:
21, 32, 35, 4, 15 and randomize theese so the ouput may look something like this:
35, 21, 15, 32, 4
My second step is to display the first number (35), then when a user clicks on a link I want the second of my random number (21) to be displayed and I also want to delete the first number (35) that has been displayed. And this routine (display number, delete previous number) should continoue untill there is no more numbers. So again, I wnat to step through all my random numbers and delete the ones I have displayed.
Example: ....
I have y pic's on the server and each time someone visits the site I want to display x of them randomly.

I want to display my records in a random order. I loop through my records so I don't know how many records will be displayed. I dont want to count the records and then use the TOP statement. I'm looking for a better solution.
Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs.Open SELECT test FROM testTable WHERE testId = 1, objConn
Do While Not rs.EOF
Response.Write "<b>" & rs("test") & "</b>" <- I want theese records to be displayed in random order
rs.MoveNext

Anyone has a solution to this problem?

I am developing a online test application(multiple choice ques) So for that i need to shuffel the questions randomly. eg there will be 60 Questions in total. If say 50 users are connected to it, all will be having same 60 questions but its order should be different.
i am using below code to randomly generate questions numbers but the problem with this code is it is repeating the number.I want to generate non repeatable numbers. Can anyone help me out to do it.
Dim my_num,max,min
Dim i
i = 0
max=60
min=1
For i = 1 to 60
Randomize
my_num=int((max-min+1)*rnd+min)
Response.Write my_num & "<br>"

I'm using Access Database with ASP. There is one particular thing that I

I've got a simple template based ASP page which pulls information in one of several different languages from an Access database.

We have the need to have a random token (a 16 char alphanumeric field) to be used as the key for one of our SQL tables. I have created a random token generator, however after only 3 months in production, it appears that we had an instance where a token that already existed in the tables was created. There are 3810 records currently in the database so it isn't like there are billions of records there.
I contacted an old college buddy of mine who is a mathematician, and he claims, assuming that random really does mean random, that the chances of getting a duplicate token are 1 in 79.5 septillion (79,500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000).
So my conclusion is that this was either a complete freak of nature occurance, or my random generator isn't really all that random. Here is the code behind how I am generating this: Code:
