Is it possible to rename a file which a user uploads to the server?
I have a form which allows users to upload an image to a folder on the web
server. This works fine.
The form they submit takes their firstname, surname and the file.
However, I want the file to automatically be renamed to
firstname_surname.jpg (taking their firtname and surname from the form they
are submitting).
How can I rename a file with aspupload or FSO before upload?
I looked for in documentation of these products, but I could not find
anything yet
i am trying to get around having to use querystrings, by having all my category id's made into folders, and all my products made into asp pages. so www.domain.com/2/product_1.asp
i know how to make the asp page and write it to a file but then how do i change the extension from .txt to .asp to make this still a dynamic page but with no need to request a product number.
I am trying to find out how to rename a file. What I want is to take the orginal filename and put todays date and time in.
So something.txt would become 2008/01/17/0918something.txt
I have the following but it states "Path not found"
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%>
<%
Dim fso, newName
set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
newName = "c:"& now() & "something.txt"
fso.MoveFile "c:something.txt", newName
set fso = Nothing
%>
I'm looking for a renaming method for folder objects.I have an ASP (JScript) application that I'm creating that acts as a document library. Users can upload files, create folders, etc.
Most places I go to basically have: copy, delete, move, create textfile as the only methods for the folder object - NOTHING about renaming.
am trying to upload a file and at the time try to rename the file to autogenerated name.

View Replies View RelatedHeres what im trying to do, I have mssql databse full of about 15,000 item ID codes. For Example of the ID Code:
The first 2 sometimes 4 letters represents the distributor name, the numbers are the item number and BX for example means Box.
DJ3726
DJ3847BX
DJ3743CD
PD2374
PD2334
PD4334BX
And I have about 15,000 images from my distributrs that mostly match up to the actual ID number, but still a lot dont match up because of a small extra letter like BX Or somehting like that.
So what ive done was write a code that Splits out the Manufature code for example DJ from DJ3726BX, and also the same for the item ID 3726 from DJ3726BX, So when I put thos to together I get just the manufature name and ID code instead of the extra crap I dont need.
And now I take just the Manufacutre name and ID and looping through my database and all of the (images via File Scripting Object).
Then I check to see if the manufacure code and ID is in the item name. For Example
Check if DJ74637
IS In: DJ74637BX.GIF
Then if it finds a match it gos and renames the gif for me. And it loops through untill its done.
My problem is that it just doesnt work, no errors no anything it just doesnt pick up any images when I can visualy go through my self and find some matchs.
Heres my code that I came up with so far ....

I am using the...

out how to do two things:
1) specify a name for the worksheet that's exported (it names the
worksheet "blah.asp?q=123" when the user wants to see "Monthy Quotas"

View Replies View RelatedThis question has to do with MS file search but it is happening only with
..asp pages, so I though someone programming with .asp pages has experienced
the same situation.
I'm trying to find .asp pages with a certain table name (i.e.
"renewalInfo" )
When I ran the search I get no results. I know that I have that string in a
couple of pages. My file system search engine is working fine with other
file types, like Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
I tried typing the string outside the <% %> tags and when I do the search I
get the file results, so it seems like if the search engine in my file
system was not searching inside the <%%> tags. Code:
I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.
I'm trying to run the server.execute command inside a executed file. It doesn't work. Can anybody tell me why? I've searched all around and haven't found a reason. Could it be because it's not supose to work, or is the syntax diferent then in the first file?
It's something like this:
File 1
...
<%Server.Execute("File2.asp")%>
...
File 2
...
<%Server.Execute("file3.asp")%>
...
File 3
<HTML>
<body>
Hello!

Is this possible?

I have an asp page written entirely in jscript with a vbscript used as an include file which one variable on the page must access.
When the page runs, I run into jscript complilation errors when it tries to access the include file (since it is written in vbscript), and I can't figure out how to get the two to work together. How do you get both scripting languages to work on the same page?
if i got a file path as a variable say for Example:

I would like to add a facility to my web page which allows users to upload basic files (word, excel, text, gif, jpg etc) to the server.
I know there's a facility to do this using HMTL forms, but I don't know how to handle the file on the server side.
What I think I need is an ASP file running some code to manipulate the filesystemobject, allowing me to receive the file and store it in the filesystem on the server. It would be nice to access some of the file properties too (name, type etc).
I've seen a few custom components online which allow you to do this, but I can't depend on installing them. I need to be able to script it myself.

I have an asp page, which displays graphical images.I am using Flipper graph in my application.
There is a link in the asp page "Click to view Image file",On clicking on this link,The graphical image need to be stored(Preferably in the server machine) and has to be opened in a new browser window.
To explain in detail. On clicking of that link"Click to view Image file" a function is called which does the following
1)Save the image file(.gif file) on the server machine
Graph.ImagetoGif("Location to be saved",100,200);
2) Opens the image on a new browser window.
window.open('from location from where the image is to be retreived',100,some more properties) So i need the image file to be saved in the server and retreived from the server.
