Normally .html files are static with regards to server-side processing. You are right, JavaScript does execute in .html files, but it executes on the client side (unless you explicitly specify for it to run on the server). VBScript will run on the client side, but only in Internet Explorer. For ASP processing, you want the script to execute on the server side.

Try renaming the file to email_con.asp and run it again. This tells the Web server that your file potentially contains ASP code that it needs to execute.

This page[^] will give you an introduction to ASP programming. I haven't read any of the material, but it should clarify server-side vs. client-side if you have any further questions. Or ask me, and I'll try to answer them. Smile | :)

jon,

thanks again for the reply... I renamed the file to a .asp extension and got the exact same error message... could there be a server configuration issue, or is there something I'm missing in my code....???

thanks again...

Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions' Smart HTML interpreter on this non-HTML page: "http://stage/email_con.asp"

thanks for any help

Nope, I'm stumped. I never use the FrontPage extensions. Anyone else use them?

It does sound like a configuration issue, but I don't know what it could be.

Found this: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q205540[^]

Are you using FrontPage to develop ASP pages? If so, I suggest abandoning it for a plain-text code editor. The learning curve is much steeper, but the end results will be worth it.

Maria,

if you want to refresh only a single portion of a page in a clean manner, then use the XMLDOM.

If you need samples, etc... then I could help with that.

Cheers,
Simon

I think having that section of the code in IFRAME tag and loading as a separate page would facilitate partial reloading. However the catch is IFRAME is supported only on MSIE.

3-tier client/server applications

21-Jan-03 8:07

In many of the programming books I read there is always a strong focus on 3-tier design. The problem is, I have never been able to find a resource which teaches the basics of 3-tier design. I am getting a grasp of the big picture of 3-tier design from the context of the books I read, but because I have not been able to build a reliable basic foundation, it is hard to be sure of what I am doing. Does anyone have any suggestions for some beginner web tutorials or books on the theory AND implementation of 3-tier applications? Thanks.

try www.asp.net and look at the ibspyportal or ibspystore app. They have a 3 tier architecture and you can download the code to review. Also take a look at the architectural (sp) section of the forums as there are quiet a few discussions on this very topic. Hope its helpful.

First - make sure you have SMTP installed on your IIS server (should be there, but if it isn't, this could cause you hours of insane frustration if nobody warns you Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

).

Dim objMail,sMailBody, strBody, email, name 'Dim necessary vars
Set objMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") 'create object

email = "you@whoever.com"
name = "A Name"
objMail.From = "me@whoever.com" 'set the from for the email
objMail.Subject = "CDONTS Email" 'set the subject for the email
objMail.To = email
'Build the body in HTML format
strBody = "" & _
"" & _
"" & _
" Hello name " & _
" I am writing to you bla bla bla." & _
"

" & _
"" & _
""
objMail.Body = strBody
'set the format before the send
objMail.MailFormat = 0
objMail.BodyFormat = 0
'send the mail
objMail.Send

Set objMail = nothing 'destroy the object again

Hope that helps. Note- the HTML formatting for the body of the email is not necessary, but it is a nice touch. Smile | :)

Actually... my site is hosted by a 3rd party. And they say that CDONTS is supported (a part of the doc that was sent to me along with the registration).

So I tried for it.

Valid XHTML

Rohit Sinha20-Jan-03 9:16

Rohit Sinha

20-Jan-03 9:16

Hi!

I tried to validate my web page at http://validator.w3.org[^] and got 497 (yes, four hundred ninety seven) errors! The page rendered fine in IE 5 and 6, but was obviously not valid XHTML. Well anyway, I nailed down all of them, but one.

Here is the code snippet:

<span class="someclass">
Some text.
<br />
<ul style="margin:0px 0px 0px 25px;">
     <li>Item one</li>
     <li>Item two</li>
</ul>
<br />
Some more text.
</span>

The error message I got from the validator was:

Line 504, column 46: document type does not allow
element "ul" here; missing one of "object", "applet",
"map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag 

          <ul style="margin:0px 0px 0px 25px;">
                                              ^

Hmmm...

So what should I do now to make it valid XHTML and still get what I want? I have tried enclosing the ul within span, p, div, even blockquote. div and p etc result in the error message that p or div cannot be present here. It's 1:45 am here and after working on this for straight I don't know how many hours fixing 496 errors, I can't think properly now. I am not an expert in this stuff. Please help.

Thanks in advance. Smile | :)

Multiple Select

Waltertje18-Jan-03 7:53

18-Jan-03 7:53

Hi!

to allow muliptle selections in a select-box isn't very hard:

<select name="choice" multiple>
<option value="1">first choice</option>
<option value="2">second choice</option>
<option value="3">third choice</option>
</select>

but I can't seem to address the return-array. I'm using php-scripts. So normally a select-box (if you allow only one selection like in most cases) you simple address it like $choice

but this logic doesn't apply to multiple selections
$choice[0] - $choice([array-length] arnen't correct. (nor anything like it)

So, it can't be very hard since it's rather easy to implement, so uhm anyone?

this cannot be done on the server-side. you need to use client-side script (JavaScript) to open a new browser window.

window.open()

It depends on what you are trying to do with the new window on how the best way to use this ... but this will hopefully get you on the right track.
