I have been storing an object as session variable, such as
set session("oRS") = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
The page then redirects to another page. i need to use this object on the called page, but i encounter an error saying 'User session has expired.' On checking with the code, it was found that the sesion variable has not maintained its state for object 'oRS'. Although, session for string type variable are maintained.
i have a form having hyperlink calling the same page.on click on hyperlink i am
submitting form "Onclick=dosubmit(form1);" dosubmit{ document.form1.submit(); } but i am not able to retain session data.how can i retain session data.
I am currently working on an online shopping cart. The working is like:-
1. First the user selects the things.
2. Next page is the detail of the things that he has selected.
Now the third page allows the user to check his address..but before that he has to log in(if he is not logged in). and after logging in he must be redirected to the checkaddress page with his details intact.
When I create a form with hiddenfields and then view it in an ASP web page the following shows where the hiddenfields are on the form- "> -this appears for every hiddenfield is there anyway these can be hidden from view on the web page.
how can i set the value of a hidden field at run time in my page? how can it be done in scriplets (<%%>). the second issue is that if we define a function using javascript, how can it be called at any place.
we don't want to call that function at any event but instead want to call that function every time or on validating an if condition.
I have a product ordering process that passes information between 3 asp pages using web forms.
I am attempting to set a session on form2.asp with data entered into form1.asp . This session is then displayed. I then wish to use this session value within a hidden field on form3.asp as follows
I have a form in which if i check one checkbox it makes 2 textboxes invisible. Thats working fine.( I am using java script to perform this)Now when user fill the form and hit submit and if some required field is missing than it forces the user to go back to form and complete it. While going back it retains all the values for all the fields.It also retails the checkboxs but even though the checkbox is checked now but textboxes which should be hidden are visible.
I have declared a Hidden field called Update in my form. I have checked before the submit that the value does actually get set, but after Submission the value of Update is empty. I have checked everywhere and this is the only place in the page that this value is set.
Does anybody have any idea why my value is being lost on submit. My form is declared : <FORM NAME="myForm" action="AgentDetail.asp" method="post">
The result should be 3, not 4 (only the fields which names - or IDs - start with an 'item'). Note: I'm not satisfied with the solution of naming the fields with same name "item" and then split the array to get their values and read the ubound of array. I would like to keep the names of the fields as I stated in the example.
i wrote a script in asp/vb script that validates form fields. all works fine, apart from the fact that alerts are being shown against the empty form fields when the page loads the first time.
so, validation should not be carried out when the page loads the first time. my friend challenged me and said i can achieve this "using a hidden form field or even the submit button" and submitting the page to itself
i was more thinking of using session variables or a session cookie, but does anyone know how you could accomplish this using a hidden form field?
I am passing variables in hidden form fields and have got it working fine. However, if the variable value has a space in it then Request.Form("fieldname") only returns the first part of the variable upto the space and the remainder is lost.
I can pass such variables in the URL using URLEncode (and a URLDecode function) but this particular form is posting to the same page. Do I have to do some kind of encoding again to format the space properly and then decode it again?
Is there anyway of making the hidden fields not show in the editor?
I use alot of hidden fields and it confuses the design if there are lots shown on the page. I have written validation for this site and need to hide the hidden fields i have created. I have searched google and there is some information on this, but it is very confusing.
I'm having trouble passing hidden fields between forms. I have a total of four forms. I have the 1st form passing its field to the 2nd form, and the 2nd form passing its field to the 3rd form, but the 1st form's field then is not passed into the 3rd form. So obviously, my summary form (the 4th form) is not getting the 1st form's field or the 2nd form's field, only the 3rd form's field. Code:
I am creating a form that has 5 steps/pages. Each page contains about 20 fields. But I don't want to write them until they submit on the last page. I figured out that I can use hidden fields to carry the data from the previous forms forward. If should bascially work like this:
But the problem I am having is when I submit page 4 page 5 won't load. No error, it just won'tload. It seems to be overburdened. Is there a max on the number of fields it can pass? Is there a better way to go about doing this that someone can suggest? Or a suggestion that someone can make to fix this problem?
It seems that I am assigning to the session rather than comparing against. I want to compare it in the first peice of code but it seems that I am assigning to it. When the user first requests the page they are not a member.Heres my code:
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then 'Do Nothing End if
'should still not be True
If(Session("IsMember") = "True") then Response.write("IS TRUE") End If
'Response.write is working telling me that the first part of the code assigned to the session
I hav developed web application using ASP.net 2.0 there are just 2 pages only. Both are works fine in visual studio. But same when i run on IIS 5.1 ....the page without session variable works fine.
But the page with...even the Sub() with session variable won't works.....even it automatically reaches the last sub of the program.
What are the changes i hav to do in IIS / application or web.config file.
we've just set up a subdomain,'demos' for one of our projects that normally works fine. on the login page, if the user enters the correct username/pw, we write session info and then response.redirect to the home page. this works for on the normal site, but session state info is dying on the demo subdomain.
i'm sure the session info is being written since i can see it when i response.write the value. also, the response.redirect uses a relative path, so it's not that we're accidentally changing domains.
We have an ASP site that uses a MySQL db backend. Usename/Password authentication is stored in db tables. We are currently using session variables as a means for validation when the user navigates to new pages. Generally speaking, all this does and has worked fine
The issue is with abandoned sessions. For instance..
Joe user clicks the [X] in the upper right hand container, closing out IE or firefox. IIS will not terminate the session for ~ 20minutes(default), leaving these resources unavaliable.
In our situation, (and possibly a different issue) unless the user clicks the [EXIT] button we've provided, not only does the session persist for 20 minutes, the login state saved in the MySQL table stays locked. Before the User can log back in, they need to call us to reset their state.
I'm looking for some kind of solution to address a user exiting the application abnormally. I am not sure of the correct procedural methodology, but I would think that some kind of process or event trigger would run in the background looking to cleanup stale sessions. Code:
I have a problem where the session state will not be enabled on the server. We are using Framework 1.1, a non-Sql Server database, and will be moving the application to a web farm in the future. Is there any way to keep the session state on a relational database that is not Sql Server? If so, how?
I was thinking about disabling session state on some of my pages by doing this: <% @ EnableSessionState = False %>
My question is if I disable the session state will the page still reset the session timeout (eg. back to 20min. default) when that page is loaded? I need it to reset the session timeout.
I'm looking for a working example on how to share session state between ASP and ASP.NET.The solution of Y Yeung of Microsoft seemed to be a good solution but I did not get the asp part working.Anybody tips, tricks, links ?
I will soon be undergoing a project where I will be migrating four to five web applications, developed in classic ASP, from a single Windows Server 2000 to a web farm that will utilize two, Windows 2003 Servers.
All of the applications utilize user/session management and I know that ASP's built-in session management cannot be carried across multiple servers.
I've been researching products available for purchase out there on the web, which allows you to include new code, which overrides ASP's built-in session management, by using a database to store sessions.
They all advertise that their solutions simply require just one line of code to be added to each ASP pages that uses Sessions, without any other changes to the existing ASP code.
Can someone who has done something similar advise on their experience? Is this really as easy as they are advertising, or are there other issues to take into consideration? Code:
We are running windows 2000 with dot.net framework 1.1 on IIS 5.1. This is an NLB architecture with the session being stored in an SQL DB. We have been coding and deploying using ASP.NET with no problems however the 'powers that be' have recently bought an online booking application which has been coded using classic asp.
We have set the session location in the machin config of the framework stating
mode="SQLServer". Will this ASP use this or continue to store the code InProc?
I am having trouble maintaining Session state between pages within my website. I had someone test the pages on their website and sessions state was maintained between pages, but for some reason, the same pages on my server do not. what might be happening?
I'm wanting to know how I can plug in a session state provider into ASP.NET. Currently you can use either the in-process, stateServer or SQL stores. Is the provider interface open and where is it documented? I've seen that Mono does provide their own state servers but I'm not sure if this is using standard provider interfaces.
Is it possible to store session state for each separate user in a separate process? We have a COM component that we want to use that is not thread safe and has to be isolated. We would like to store this in a separate process for each user.
I used KB 308150 as a guide to create a virtual directory shared by a few webstores that my company hosts. The virtual folder and websites reside on the same box. The shared directory includes code files used by all the webstores.
The problem - when a user adds items to the shopping cart, ***sometimes*** the session variables get reset and all cart information is lost. I can't consistently make the error occur - it seems to be random.
Also, if you have any different ideas on how to share code between many websites...I'm all ears.
wat i need to know urgently is whether Load Balancing will affect my session state for logging in. If it does affect, what should i do?
Currently, the Session("login") is set to false for not logged in and true for log in... pls help i need to know it urgently... in Global.asa its default is "false" Code:
At risk of being flamed for mentioning the N-word here ...
Has anybody yet cracked the knotty problem of sharing Session state between ASP and ASP.Net sites (within the same domain)?
Last time I looked, the two Session() mechanisms were totally divorced and separate, making step-by-step conversion of Session -dependent web sites from ASP to ASP.Net all but impossible.
