Hi, everyone!

I want to encrypted the data in a html form
sent to a JSP/Servlet (using POST method).
For example, password.

How to do it? Are there some sample codes or
guides?

Cheers,
George

This will require using SSL with the HTTP server, whether it be IIS, Apache, Zeus etc. There are many guides for installing SSL certificates across the Internet (I'd recommend Google as ever).

There's really no other better way of doing it.

Thanks, Paul pal!

Your reply is very helpful! I have rated it. Smile | :)

Do you have some guides on Apache and SSL?

I am a newbie, so I want you to help me out.

Cheers,

I am interested in reading a database with ASP.net and then feeding the results into javascript. Is it possible to do this directy... How can i pass the results of an ASP function to a javascript function?

Thanks...

What is it your attempting to accomplish? Look at the RegisterArrayDeclaration function, this might give you are starting point.

You can't. ASP is processed on the server, javascript is processed on the server. You would need to write the return value into the javascript before it gets rendered to the page.

string strBar = "function MyJavaFoo(" + MyFoo() + ")";
RegisterClientScriptBlock(strBar);

You get to figure out what is missing from above code.

One important thing to remember in web development is that all you ever send back to the client from the server is text. Nothing more. The server does not care whether that text represents HTML, CSS, JavaScript or a soft pron film script.

How this helps you is that you do not have to do anything different when you want to send back JavaScript as opposed to HTML.

So you can have the following in your ASP:

...
<script language="javascript">
<%
For X = 0 to 100
    Response.Write "var i" & X & " = " & (X * 100) & ";"
Next
%>
</script>
...

That will then send text back to the client which the browser will interpret as being a block of JavaScript which has 101 variables (named i1, i2, i3, etc.) and being assigned a value.

This technique once realised is quite powerful.

IIS - HTTP 500 Error

Kant30-Nov-02 14:26

Hi CPians,

My IIS won't start and I get "HTTP 500 - Internal server error" always.
I got IIS 5.1 installed on Windows XP Pro with SP1.

Even http://localhost gives the same error. When I turned off the "Friendly error messages" option in IE, I get "Server Error - Bad URL"

I logged into my computer as an admin.

Default Web Site -> Properties -> Directory Security (tab) -> Edit (Anonymous Access and Authentication Control) -> cleared the checkbox (Anonymous Access)

Could you guys give me some points where to start to fix this problem?

BTW, I got Visual Studio .NET installed with C#.NET and installed ASP.NET (via aspnet_regiis.exe)

thanks

getElementsByTagName weirdness

Michael Dunn29-Nov-02 22:52

29-Nov-02 22:52

I'm trying to enumerate all <embed> tags in a page by using IHTMLDocument3::getElementsByTagName() and IHTMLElement::getElementsByTagName() (calling that on the <body> element), but both are returning an empty list. Is getElementsByTagName() just plain b0rked or is "embed" handled specially?

This is on IE6 if it matters.

Any other ideas?

Don't use the IHTMLDocument3 interface, it doesn't support the embeds collection, unlike IHTMLDocument2. (IHTMLDocument3 doesn't override IHTMLDocument2, but IDispatch instead).

This code works fine for me :

CComQIPtr<IHTMLDocument2> pHtmlDoc( GetHtmlDocument() );
if (!pHtmlDoc) return;

CComPtr<IHTMLElementCollection> p = NULL;
pHtmlDoc->get_embeds(&p);

long nb = 0;
p->get_length(&nb);

Michael Dunn30-Nov-02 7:49

30-Nov-02 7:49

I am calling it through a IHTMLDocument2 pointer (otherwise, like you said, it wouldn't compile). *shrug* I'm doing:

// pDoc is a IHTMLDocument2 interface, already initialized
 
MSHTML::IHTMLElementCollectionPtr pEmbedColl;
long l, lLen;
 
  pEmbedColl = pDoc->embeds;
  lLen = pEmbedColl->length;

lLen is 0 no matter what.

This code is alright.

Make sure you access the DOM when it's ready for use. For instance, my code is executed in the OnDocumentComplete() event handler.

How to add the icon to be displayed in the web-browser's address bar. CP, Google etc does it......

1 - Create the icon that you want to use

2 - Name it 'favicon.ico'.

3 - Place it in the root of your website

That should be all you need to do.

Ray said it all. No meta data, no modification to your files, no IIS settings, no CSS, no JavaScript, no nothing. Just make the favicon.ico, put it in the root and hey presto.

On word of warning though: Favourite Icons may disapear after awhile as they are stored in the temporary internet files folder. IE unfortuantley does not re-download the file.
