I have created a form which asks the user a series of questions. I am able to retrieve the information from the database but I need to know how many rows of data has been entered for each question.
For example I have a question which asks the user what age range they belong to. I need to find out how many rows of data has been added into this column in the database. Code:
I tried the following code to save in a variable, the quantity of entries in my recordset:
if rsEntries.Supports(adApproxPosition) = true then strCount = rsEntries.RecordCount end if
It didn't work for me. It's returning a value of -1 and I have close to 100 entries in my recordset. Is there an alternative to this? What code can I use to accomplish that?
What is the best way to control is a transaction? I've done a little test and both of the examples below seem to do the job, but I was wondering which is the better method, this:
If err.number <> 0 Then conn.RollbackTrans Else conn.CommitTrans End If
Or this:
If conn.Errors.Count <> 0 Then conn.RollbackTrans Else conn.CommitTrans End If
let's say that I want to highlight some words or even a square of a table in yellow...how would i go about doing that? What code would work to do what I need?
I'm having a problem in displaying a selected option from the drop down list in words. But after I selected an option, nothing is being displayed, I think the value can't be passed at all. Please let me know how to fix it.
<td align=center width=20%>Fruit: <select name=""FruitName"> <% " If not myRS.eof Then while not myRS.eof %> <option value="<%=myRS.fields("ID")%>"<%If FId = myRS.fields("ID") Then response.write "selected"%>><%=myRS.fields("FName")%></option> <% myRS.MoveNext wend %> </select>
<p>The fruit you have selected is <%=FruitName%></p>
I have a database field that is a memo type. I would like to be able to only display the first 50 words from the database. I would like for it to show ..... after about 50 words.
I am using <%=Content %>. How do I trim this field to show only 50 words and then ....?
I tried the following code: Function LengthTrim(input, length) If Len(input) > length Then Return Left(input, length) + "..." Else Return input End If End Function
then <%= LengthTrim(Content, 50) %>
But it would not work. I got the following error message:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'Variable is undefined: 'Return' .
i am having trouble getting my REPLACE fn. to replace whole words only. basically, i'm running a 'spelling checker' fn. that uses the REPLACE fn. to find incorrect spellings and replace them. problem is, the fn. seems to replace all instances of a string, and not a whole word only as I intend it to be:
Code as follows:
StrInput = Request.Form("BKM_Search") StrInput = LCase(StrInput) 'convert all to lowercase StrInput = Trim(StrInput)'trim all empty space b4 & after string StrCorrect = Replace(a_StrWrong, a_StrRight,1,1,1)
Let's say I want to replace the word "sea" with "ZZZ" only:
Example input: "Sean has some neat sea shells" Example output: "ZZZn has some neat ZZZ shells"
I have to develop a spell checker from scratch using asp language. as i'm a newbie with asp, there are still a lot of things that i don't understand. How can I add new words to my list of dictionary sorted alpabetically?
Do i need to use the database for this function? Can anyone show me? or if anyone knows of any websites that i can refer to.
strTemp="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed"
and I am searching the string for another string 'amet', for example. How would I go about getting my page to output the word I search for and say 10 chars to the left and 10 to the right? So, in this case, I'd like to be be able to search the string with any other string ['amet' for example] and have it output this:
I need to insert some number into database as text. My problem is if I insert the number (ie. 4.0), the value in the database only show (4). So, is it possible to convert a real number into text number using ASP?
wondering if its possible to have some kind of searched word highlight! IE. every thing it throws up in return of search it will highlight why it has brought it up! so if search "a" all "a" in return results would be highlighted.
is it possible (i heard u can replace) to filter out bad words using regexp? I'm using Replace() but it sucks without ALOT of extra code... but using regexp it seems better, with ignorecase, etc.
I retrieved some data from the database and put it in a textbox but the words after the blank sapace cannot be shown, why is that? Name = rs("requestor") 'where the name is "Sam Siew"
how to capitalise all words in a string that are seperated by spaces. The string is variable and not the same every time hence I cant use the Ucase function as I wont know the exact position of the start of each word.
I would like to have a text box where people can type a word they want and then click on a button to get the description of that word.The way I see it working is if the word they entered in the box is in my database a page will display the meaning corresponding to the word in the database. However if it is not then it will display a message telling them that.
This code highlights words entirely. I look for the word nation it highlights words like abomination. So I only want the function to highlight whatever I'm looking for. Code:
i have a form where the user keys in words to be searched from the itemDescription column in the database. My search works fine, but how to i bold that particular searched word?
I'm really at wits end on this as I'm not having much success with locating a function or other options I have. I'm working on a message board for a website and I'm needing to check the length of the words that users put in.
For example, when someone puts in "yesssssssssssss!", I put together a small function that omits all of the s's as this is wreaking havoc on the layout of tables within the site. But I don't have a solution if someone types in "ssss sasdfjskldjfaskld;jfaskdf" as random ambiguous letters.
I know I can check the length of the entire string but don't know to check the words within it.
Say I have a field containig some text, for example: The quick brown fox jumped over the fence. How do I only show the first 4 words of the sentance, i.e: The quick brown fox...
