Extracting Part Of Text

Is there a way of extracting only part of an entry retrieved from a SQL database. For instance, if I have an article of 4000 characters can I extract only the first line of the article and them put a link to the full article after the extracted text.

It is something I have been trying to master and will help me display my retrieved recordset data better.

Extracting Part Of A String

we have a database with a lot of products in it. and for some reason one fo the feilds is set up like "<img src="images/something/image.jpg" />". they should be set up without the html but because of the way they are set up theres no way i can use them outside of the root directory.

I need a way to just pull the first 10 characters off the string. which would be the <img src=" part, and then pull off the last 4 characters " />. so that i am just left with images/something/image.jpg.

I can sort of get the first part to work by using Mid(string,10)

but how can i remove the last 4 characters?

in php the function would do the ending characters if you made it a negative number. but Mid(Mid(string,10),-4) doesnt seem to work.

Extracting Text From Remote Site

I'd like to do the above, ideally in javascript but i'm aware of the security restrictions with accessing the DOM of a file not hosted on the same server - however i'm not looking to manipluate anything on the remote site, or handle any events (such as keylogging!). All i want is to have a piece of text on the remote site dupicated on my own site.

I'm happy to receive the html as a whole and split it up to get what i want, but i'm beginning to think the way forward is doing it server-side with asp.
Anyone know the best way to do this?

OR am i just being silly and there is a way to copy the contents of a remote page into my own page in javascript, split it up and only display what i need.

(btw im quite happy with the splitting up bit, no help needed there - i just need the blasted text in the first place!)

Stripping Part Of The Text

I want to strip email from the text. Some of my users may send me a string:

str = "This is email 1: Join Bytes! and here is email 2: <a
href="mailto:me@me.com">me@me.com</a>"

How do I parse the string to get email address only? mI know I may use instr() to determine if email address exists, but please, give me a hint on how to handle it next.

Text Manipulation Of Variables Part 2.

Alright, now I'm trying to combine time and date in one variable as such:

Combined = time & " " & date

But instead of getting 12:42:13 PM 6/12/2006, I just want to get 12:42 6/12. How do I strip off the last characters to just get the parts I want? Also, I'd really like to see the time in 24 hour(military) format, but I'm not sure how to accomplish that either.

Extracting Other Sites Content

we have a site, that has a link to a online PC cart that we are registered with. Trouble is, when the user goes to the other site, we obviously no longer have our interface wrapped around the page.

We can do this with an iframe, but it wont vertically stretch the content (a scroll bar appears). Is there any way in ASP, to call a url, and say, insert that url into a <td></td> on our page?

Extracting Data From A Document

Not a problem with my code, but something I would like to add, (ASP
VBScript) at the moment I have a form where a user uploads their details
including a document (Doc, PDF, TXT, Docx) The document is uploaded to a
folder on the server with the address being stored in the database and I'm
tracking the user id through sessions.

What I would like to do after the upload is redirect to a blank page, where
some script extracts the data from the document and inserts it into another
field on the database associated with the user id, I think this may be called
parsing, but I'm at a complete loss, I don't suppose you guys have any ideas
on this do you.

Extracting Source Code

Is there a way of processing an ASP page and placing the resulting HTML
source code into a TEXTAREA on another page?

I have a page that will be generated dynamically from database content.
However, I want a form on another page to have access to the compiled source
code for use in an electronic newsletter.

Manually I would load the dynamic page, view the source and copy it out. I
would then paste it into my form field on the relevant page.

Extracting Data By Date

I have a website where people can add job vacancies to our database. In the admin section I can delete these vacancies but have trouble with selecting certain dates from the database.

For example if I wanted to delete all the jobs from the database for the 18/12/2003 I would select the date then all the jobs will appear on the screen and I can delete them. But if I select a date such as 06/12/2003 or 11/12/2003 it doesnt display anything from the database when I know there are a couple of hundred in there for those dates.

Extracting Data From A URLEncoded String

I am trying to add a feature to our inventory that will pass the current URL to a second site so that I can return to the original site later through a redirect. Basically, it is intended to work like this - you do a search, and are taken to a page where you can view the records.

You click on a record to view it and/or update it, and then you are returned to the original search results. I am having some trouble, and am hoping that someone can help me out.

I am placing the values that I want to keep (original URL, search terms, sort order, page number) into a string, and then using Server.URLEncode to encode it: Code:

ServerVariables - Request Only Part Of The URL

I am coding a login system with login form etc. and when users are denied access to a secure page within the secure area, I want to obviously send them to the login page to check who they are and check they are allowed to view the secure content of the site.

The problem I am having is that currently, if a user is denied access to a secure page, they are sent to the login page. Once they are granted access, they should be sent back to the page they were originally trying to view and not to the main menu.

(The secure area has lots of pages and users would not be happy if they had to trawl through hundreds of pages to try and find what they wanted.

I know I need to use the ServerVariables collection to retrieve the ("URL"), but I dont want to just use this as a querystring parameter when I send a user to the login page.

This would be insecure because someone out there would find my little login script and start using it on their own site by sending users to my login script to login, and then using the querystring parameter to redirect the user back to their own site.

All I want to do is select the part of the URL after the http://www.somedomainname.co.uk/manager/ part. I cannot use a Left select or right select option because my login script will be put onto lots of different websites, and I would have to change the Left select on each different site.

Using Wildcards In The 'Where' Part Of An SQL Statement

SQL = "SELECT order_date FROM cart_order WHERE username = 'A*' ORDER BY username"

Refresh Just Part Of The Screen?

I can come up with a page that displays some information. The information will always be displayed on specific part of the page, with auto refresh. But he doesn't want the whole page to be refreshed so that buttons and images around the information do not get
reloaded each time. Is this really possible?

Other pages on this site don't use frames, so this page can't use frams too. Creating an ActiveX control is also not an option of us ...
