I need help on loading some photos to the same webpage. Here's what I'm trying to do. I want to be able to choose photo groups from a drop down list and display the selected photo group in a table in the same page instead of loading another page that contains the selected photo group. I was thinking of puting the photo name in a a database and loading it from there but then that was too difficult and I don't have that many photos to use the power of a database. So I think there must be some way to use Javascript or PHP to do what I wanted to do. The problem is I have not used Javascript nor PHP to do this kind of things before. Will anyone help me please?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi ljCharlie,

It sounds like a database and queries would be perfect for what you are trying to do. However, if you don't want to go that route, and only have a few photo's, one idea might be to link each item in the drop down list to a pre-built static page holding the photo's for that category. Just do a location.replace to whichever page is appropriate for the category chosen. Hmmm... early Monday morning - I hope I'm making sense Smile | :)

Anyway, there are quite a few CPians into photography, so once you have it together feel free to share it with us Smile | :)

Thanks for trying to help. Right now I have static pages that I load the page in from the drop down list, however, will you give me an example of using location.replace?

Unable to display ASP pages

Hello All,
I'm using InterDev to develop some sites. all of a sudden I can't view any ASP pages, they all give me an error message "There is a Problem with the page you are trying to view" and Error "HTTP 500 - Internal Server Error" Mad | :mad:

I checked all the services, and I think I have all the necessary services running, permissions for the web are ok ( I think). I was able to view them just a couple of hours ago. I tried to run the site from InterDev, Browse from the IIS console, view it is FrontPage and preview it in browser, No mater how I can try to access them I can't view the ASPs.

Please give me some hints, your help is really appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Unable to set server into debug mode

Hello All Gurus out there,

I'm facing a problem that I couldn't resolve. Unsure | :~

Using InterDev I have a site with ASPs and every time I try to Start the site it says "unable to set server into correct debug mode". Although the project is set to enable ASP server-side scripts, and the debugger is correctly setup and it was working fine the day before. When I go to the Help it says restart the "Microsoft Transaction Server"

On IIS: when I go to the Site properties and try to set the Application Protection to isolated (So it can run in its own space) I get the error message "COM+ unable to talk to the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator" and it changes the site on IIS to a folder.

Please if you have any ideas on how to tackle this problem, Please let me know. Or if you know how to restart the MS transaction server. I need to be able to debug the scripts.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

PS. This started happening after I deleted a site from IIS and tried to create it again from InterDev -done it a 1000 times with no problems – but the deference is the InterDev process was killed before it finishes initializing the root. Confused | :confused:

I get this error every time I set up a new site; always have since installing VS6. It doesn't seem to hurt anything, as I set the site to allow debugging manually anyway, and it always works. The message, as always, contains no useful information, and Help, as always, is of little help. I just ignore it.

I haven't seen any messages about the MDTC yet, but I have seen it demote a site to a folder in the past. Setting it to run in its own process may be part of your problem. You cannot use Server Side Includes (SSI) or the Internet Database Connector (IDC) service in isolation; they must be run in the same process as IIS.

I don't know if it's related, but with debugging enabled, IIS runs in single-threaded mode. That may be causing a problem with communication between COM+ and MDTC.

posting XML to ASP page in IIS

I have a piece of code that posts a XML document to an ASP page running on IIS using the IXMLHTTP40 class. This all works fine when I run my code from the command line.

When I run my code as an NT service the .send method fails with "unable to download the specified resource".

Is something I am missing? Is it possible to call communicate with web pages from a NT service?

Sending form data to another website

Actually what I really wanna know is how many ways can you send a script sitting on www.something.com data from a form at www.something.net???

I'm assuming you can send data to a external script using

<form name="test" action="http://www.something.net?test=test">

Can a server side include receive form data, cookies or anything? If it sits on another server also...?

Thanks

I have been working with multingual web sites for a while. The way I did (although I don't know if it is the best way) is as follows:

In the database you create more fileds of the same content for the different language. For example, if you have a table called PAGES and in the table you have the fields, PAGEID, PAGETITLE, PAGECONTENT you can change it to:

PAGEID, EN_PAGETITLE, AR_PAGETITLE, EN_PAGECONTENT, AR_PAGECONTENT

Where EN=English and AR=Arabic

Then you always have on the query string a value that holds the current language like this:

www.website.com/page.asp?pageID=1&lang=EN

Then when you build the SQL query in the ASP code you do this:

SELECT PAGEID, " & Request("lang") & "_PAGETITLE, " & Request("lang") & "_PAGECONTENT FROM PAGES WHERE PAGEID=1

and you can even switch the language at any page by just changing the querystring like this:

www.website.com/page.asp?pageID=1&lang=AR

which with the same SQL query will return the Arabic version of the page.

Hope I explained this clearly enough... Confused | :confused:

I see what you mean...

That has to do with server settings.
I had the same problem with Greek.

I think you need to to add to the server Arabic language

Try this, it should work... Laugh | :laugh:

), and so... arabic is installed in the PC.... is there anything more to be done for this?

From Control Panel -> Regional Options -> General tab...

Make sure that Arabic is checked on the LANGUAGE SETTINGS FOR THE SYSTEM

This is in win2000. It should be similiar on XP or win2000 Server

If this doesn't fix the problem... I don't know what else might be
