    Writing an RSS feed with ASP

    This is moving along MUCH better now (and makes more sense to me!) Thanks so much for getting me on the right path!

    Writing an RSS feed with ASP

    Thanks - that helps clear things up a bit for me. All I'm trying to do is actually output the XML file. This is the first time I've tried to do this, so I've been reading all these tutorials online and trying to put the information together in a way I thought it would work. All I've...

    Writing an RSS feed with ASP

    What I'd like to do is take the contents of our news database, write it dynamically into an xml file, then write a page to display the feed. So far, I've gotten the part to write the xml file to work, but am having a problem with part 2. One of the tutorials I came across suggested using the...

    Possible?

    Thanks Chris - I worked that into the function that stripped the paragraph tags and it works great! Michelle

    Possible?

    I'm trying to write a script in asp that will write the contents of a news database into an rss feed. My problem is stripping the <BR> tags out of the news item. Is there an easy way to convert any tags to line breaks? Thanks in advance. Michelle

    Problem accessing log files

    We just moved to a Windows 2003 box as our webserver. Since the move, I'm having a problem getting to my log files. The path is correct, the log files are there, the directory has read permissions, but whenever I try to access one of the log files I get a 404 page cannot be found error. Any...

    Can this be done with a database

    I guess either - I know the person that's asked for it could definately import the data into Access if given a file. I think the more I think about it, I'm leaning toward giving him a xls or cvs file for hime to import unless there's a better way...

    Can this be done with a database

    I know how to connect to a database to write a txt file or spreadsheet, but someone has asked me if its possible to write the contents of a sql database table into an Access file. Possible? I haven't come up with anything that says yes so far.... Thanks in advance. Michelle

    One more mail list question

    Thanks to everyone who gave me the advice earlier about CDOSYS - I do plan on trying that out when I get some time. I did get ASP Email working with my script to the point where I can send mail, but now I get an error before something finishes processing: for i = 0 to last singlemail =...

    Trouble with a mailing list

    Unfortunately, Persits is the only option I have, so I guess I'll keep muddling along and try to figure it out.

    Trouble with a mailing list

    We moved to a Windows 2003 box. The script originally used CDONTS - that was the first modification I had to make this morning was to migrate to the Persits component, which is installed. (Our network guy doesn't like CDONTS so he shut it down!)

    Trouble with a mailing list

    I had an asp mailing list that sent a message to a text file of recipients, which worked beautifully until the powers that be upgraded servers on me and didn't tell me how my components would be effected. Anyway, now that I've vented... This code is now throwing an error: last =...

    Dynamic Select Boxes

    I'm guessing this is an easy question, but I can't figure it out. I've got a select box that is populated with fields from a database table: <select name="subject"> <% While (NOT catalog.EOF) %> <option value="<%=(catalog.Fields.Item("library_subject_id").Value)%>"...

    Clearing screen display

    That's how I'm reading the code - so I will definately try that! Thanks for the suggestion.

    Clearing screen display

    I've got a little chat application I'm trying to modify, so far I've added all the features I want, except I can't figure out how to clear the contents of the chat window when someone leaves the room. This is the code that is supposed to clear everything: <% application("emchatusers") = ""...

    Session variable question

    What I did was just set up a randomly generated number as a hidden form variable and used that as my session variable. Now its working great. Thanks everyone for the advice and explanation

    Session variable question

    Thanks - that's what I needed - I'll try something else!

    Session variable question

    That's what I was wondering. I'm using an SQL database

    Session variable question

    So then I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong when I try to set the session variable. Following my form that inserts the preliminary info into the first database table, here's the code I use to set it: <% dim applicant_id set applicant_id = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")...

    Session variable question

    In my on again, off again attempt to get a problem with a series of web forms straightened out, I came up with a new question about session variables. I've got a two part application form. Once the user completes part 1, it inserts into a database table where I've got an auto-number...
