Re: open/close connection to database Nick Parker8-Mar-02 6:08 Nick Parker 8-Mar-02 6:08  That really depends on the purpose of the connection on your web form. If this is the only place that you use your connection, you may consider leaving it where it is. Otherwise, if your application can use the same connection other places you may consider a function to be more adequate.

Wish You Were Here-Pink Floyd-1975 Keeping track of shopping cart items MS le Roux8-Mar-02 1:09 MS le Roux 8-Mar-02 1:09  I have to develop something for a programming competition. I'm considering doing an online shopping site, but I'm unsure about how to keep track of the items in the shopping cart. The user could be on the site for a while, so Session variables are not a good option. I could pass the Item IDs via the Request object, but that seems a bit unsecure - what if someone hacks the source code and changes the item IDs (or should I not worry as long as prices are not involved at that stage)? Any suggestions? Re: Keeping track of shopping cart items Philip Patrick13-Mar-02 22:26 Philip Patrick 13-Mar-02 22:26  Why not to use a database to store all item IDs for example, that user want to buy?

I'd like the text to always stay 90% of the window windth. So whenevery the window size is changed I'd like to change the text size. Anyone know how please? Thanks Jeremy Davis http://www.astad.org Re: Text Sizes Torsten Mauz11-Mar-02 11:00 Torsten Mauz 11-Mar-02 11:00  Ok here's a quick script I've knocked up. It's not exactly accurate but it's close to 90% i think. <title> Here is a lot more text to see what happens Hope this helps you out if not then let me know and I'll try and get it to be more accurate. Re: Text Sizes jerry0davis12-Mar-02 1:05 jerry0davis 12-Mar-02 1:05  Thanks a lot! The only problem is I get a JavaScript error saying "resizeText" is not defined. Is this a style variable I need to declare? Jeremy Davis http://www.astad.org Re: Text Sizes Torsten Mauz12-Mar-02 1:21 Torsten Mauz 12-Mar-02 1:21  sorry that was my fault... it was late when i pasted the code in what you need to do is enclose the text in the body in a div with an id of "resizeText" e.g. <div id="resizeText"> let me know how you get on. Re: Text Sizes jerry0davis12-Mar-02 1:21 jerry0davis 12-Mar-02 1:21  Fantastic, that's just what I needed!

I have a feeling that this is best handled in CSS. I tried adding the background by redefining the CSS tag , but this doesn't seem to work. I was thinking of an SSI that sets up the header for each page, but it seems like my problem is much simpler . . . thanks, tim --------------------------------------- Tim Booher Re: add a background to every page Nick Parker7-Mar-02 5:30 Nick Parker 7-Mar-02 5:30  What problem are you running into exactly? Even with ASP you should be able to doing something like this:     Response.Write "<body background="/pics/somepicture.gif>" & vbcrlf Hope this helps, maybe I wasn't understanding your problem.

Here is the code to do it: <body style="background: url(images/imagename.gif)"> Though it is probably best to put it into an external stylesheet like this: body{ background: url(images/imagename.gif); } HOWEVER, just FYI the external style sheet method only seems to currently work on Netscape 6. IE 6 does not support it.

I need to force the user to save the file on the local HDD. (IIS web server). Thanks Bipin Re: prevent files from opening in the browser mortrr7-Mar-02 10:44 mortrr 7-Mar-02 10:44  Add the http-header Content-Disposition, with at value of "attachment; filename=xxx". You can do this using asp (example using jscript): Response.AddHeader("content-disposition","attachment; filename="+TheFileName); Or you can change the content-type of the file to something the browser isn't going to recognize. This can be done in IIS Manager or asp. - Morten bound datalist to database Mazdak6-Mar-02 8:10 Mazdak 6-Mar-02 8:10  I'm designing a web site ASP.NET and C#,and I have a access database.

I need to be able to sort a table of data that is returned in a paged recordset layout. The idea I am trying to create for the user is that if they click on the "Head" of the column once the data will be sorted descending, again and it will be sorted ascending. I have found a script on another site to do this however it doesn't work in Netscape and the application I am working on requires browser compliance across the board. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance. P.S. - Right now the application will sort the entire contents of the returning results, I only want to sort descending or ascending of the 10 records per page that is being displayed. Nick Parker Re: Javascript Sorting Problem mortrr7-Mar-02 10:56 mortrr 7-Mar-02 10:56  I assume you're talking about requesting the data again from the database, and not using dhtml (which could be he only reason why the script doesn't work with netscape) to sort the single page. Getting your 10 records from the database, in the right order within a single page, can only be done by requesting those specific records by ID. So you'll have to send the IDs of the records back to the server (hidden input) with the sort field. MS SQL: "SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE ID IN ("+myIDs+") ORDER BY "+orderField myIDs contains comma-separated IDs. Paging after sorting using a different field, will be a bit confusing though, as the user whould have to return to your default sort-order. - Morten Re: Javascript Sorting Problem Nick Parker7-Mar-02 18:19 Nick Parker 7-Mar-02 18:19  Morten Rasmussen wrote: I assume you're talking about requesting the data again from the database I am actually looking into methods that will allow me to sort the data without returning to the server. I do have a script that does this but it is only effective in IE. Thanks Nick Parker Re: Javascript Sorting Problem mortrr7-Mar-02 21:52 mortrr 7-Mar-02 21:52  It can be done in the browser, including NS (but only NS6). Give all cells an ID. Cell_00_00 - Cell_00_01 - Cell_00_02 Cell_01_00 - Cell_01_01 - Cell_01_02 Cell_02_00 - Cell_02_01 - Cell_02_02 Create an Array for client-side javascript that contains all data (no need to read data from the table, before each sort). On click, sort the data (same array or to new array) and insert cell by cell. - Morten
