1) CAPTCHA to prevent spambots dropping junk information.
2) After the form is submitted, hold the data in a quarantine table for a specified time and send a link to the user. If the user clicks that promote the message from quarantine to Sales Request or whatever.
3) If the message has not been resurrected for the specified time, then prepare to cremate it.

Thanks Vasudevan. I like the idea of the quarantine table until the enquiry is confirmed.
Any suggestions as to how I fire off the enquiries in the form of emails once the enquiry is confirmed? This site will use a SQL2005 database so could I take advantage of functionality within SQL2005?
Thanks
Adrian

Through triggers or perhaps stored procedures.

I agree with Vasudevan about the quarantine idea. It is probably the better approach along with the other ideas he suggested. I don't really know the extent of abuse that such a site would have but his suggestions can help curb it.

Thanks Paul.
Regarding type of abuse, I'm specifically trying to guard against competitor sites (their employees  filling out the enquiry form on my site with fake details anonymously. I see this possibly causing bad feeling with those companies who would be paying a monthly fee for the leads my site sends them. Now I don't know for sure if this sort of abuse takes place. My only hint that it does is a note on the contact form of a competitor site indicating that any misuse of the enquiry form will be "reported and investigated and appropriate action taken".
As for stopping SPAMBots, I'll go for the CAPTCHA aswell.
Thanks
Adrian

A client of mine does sales lead generation and under our NDA I cannot really go into detail how he takes care of the problem. In short, we have not ever had the abuse happen.

That is perhaps the best route...

hi
iam having a aspx page which contains a textbox and a button.i have written javascript code for passing values between a popup window and the parent(aspx)page.upto this everything works fine.after taking value from pop up window i want to make the pop up window active(that is parent window should not be clicked unless pop up window closes.)but in my case the pop up window gets minimised when i click outside in the parent window.and one more problem with the page is it gets minimised when i click outside the window.
iam giving the javascript code here for your reference.
function to open pop up window..
string scr = @"<script>
function update(elemValue)
{
document.getElementById('ctl00_LondonContentPlaceHolder3_txtRestName').innerText=elemValue[0];
}
</script>";
// register the javascript into the Page
Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock("update", scr);
//add our popup onclick attribute to the desired element on the page (Here, Hyperlink1)
lnkTopPick.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open('lrs_SearchRestToppick.aspx',null,'left=190, top=225, height=250, width= 465, status=n o, resizable= no, scrollbars= no, toolbar= no,location= no, menubar= no');");
function to pass value
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string scr = @" <script>
function Done()
{
var RestName=document.getElementById('txtRestName').value;
var RestDesc=document.getElementById('txtRestDesc').value;
var ret= new Array(RestName,RestDesc);
window.opener.update(ret);
window.close();
}
</script>";
Page.RegisterClientScriptBlock("done", scr);
}

Did you consider using ShowModalDialog?

I have to build a web part for employees to clock in in the morning. So, simply, they click the button and woo they're clocked in. I have working code that makes the part, and when they click it it gets the username from the web context and updates all that to a SQL server. What I need to do however, is convert the username to their full name (so domain\user -> John Doe). I was going to do this by querying active directory, but that doesn't work. I made a test program that runs on the server and numerous locations, transfered the code verbatim but it breaks everything else. I know the code works. At first I thought it was because the server was running the app as a network service and not a domain account (hence it not being able to query AD), but it was set in an app pool goverened by a domain account. I logged into said account and could run the test program from it, so I know for certain it can query AD. Any other suggestions on why this might not be working? And if none, anyone know of another way to retrieve their full name?
Web part is going onto a server running WSS 2 on .Net 1.1

Do you have impersonation switched on? If so it might be querying AD as 'domain\user'.
|
|
|
|
|
That's the thing, any domain user can query AD. I figured it out though; it was querying it as LOCALHOST\NETWORK SERVICE... so... not a domain user. Heh. So I fixed that, and now it seems to work.

You don't really need to write a web part, a domain login script would be sufficient. You could also write a domain logoff script that would bounce them off the clock as well.

Hi All,
I have a custom Control which contains div as a main container and any other control can be dragged and dropped within the div control. Currently, I have added client side code to invoke a postback on the following events of the container:
document.onchange = handleEvent;
interceptor.onclick = handleEvent;
interceptor.onkeypress = handleEvent;
interceptor.onkeyup = handleEvent;
interceptor.onpaste = handleEvent;
So in any of these events on the container or any its child a postback event is raised to the server with the function handleEvent:
function handleEvent(event)
{
var btsave = document.getElementById(controlEtatUpdate);
if ( btsave.disabled )
{
if (!event)
{
var e = window.event;
if (!e.ctrlKey)
{
if (e.keyCode != Sys.UI.Key.tab)
{
if (e.srcElement.type) {
if (e.srcElement.type == 'text')
{
if (e.type != 'click')
{
// Save the current position for a text.
currentPosition = getPosition(e.srcElement)
WarnServer();
}
}
else
{
WarnServer();
}
//W3C model
if (e.stopPropagation)
{
e.stopPropagation();
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
So as soon you click on the custom control, an even is raised but I would like to avoid that in the case of a ComboBox…Especially when there is no change in the selection. Any help will appreciated.

Hi ,
I was going through an ASP.Net [with VB.Net as code behind] application.
The problem with this application is that when a particular page is transfered to another page, the receiving page sometimes get data [using Request.Form] and sometimes not. This form is submitted using javascript. This is inconsistent behaviour.
Is this a known issue in ASP.Net?? Any solution for this?

I have a web site that I'm writing for a client but am thus far unable to connect to the server via my ASP pages. All the information I can get from the help center at the hosting provider is the DSN, IP address, Username, Password, and the database name.
I've been to connectionstrings.com, which is a pretty useful site, and have attempted to use the available resources but to no avail.
Here is the connection string I'm currently using,
Sub ConnDB()<br />
Set DataConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")<br />
DataConn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=190.190.200.100,1433; Network Library=DBMSSOCN;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;User ID=myUsername;Password=myPassword;"<br />
End Sub
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
