So, I opted take some help from the MS Access database. The database stores the english and arabic contents in it. It will pick the respective contents on the user's selection policy. I change the meta tage content for the arabic as follows.... ARABIC - ENGLISH - And the fonts looks fine when it is seen from MS access. But when I show that in the web-site, it JUSt shows as ?????. Any tag to be added to make the site show good with the arabic fonts from the ms-access? Thanks in advance! I was born intelligent Education ruined me!. Re: ms access - asp - multiple language Roger Wright7-Jun-03 4:49 Roger Wright 7-Jun-03 4:49  I'm guessing here, but it may have something to do with the way Access handles Arabic characters. According to MSDN[^], Internet Explorer should handle the characters correctly using the META tags you define. But this[^] note indicates that Access doesn't use the same code pages for Arabic and other right-to-left languages as it does for the more common languages. It instead uses a Unicode version, which IE may be having trouble interpreting in this usage. You might find some clues in the source for your page if you can open it in a hex editor and view the actual bytes of data being interpreted. "Ask not for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee..." Re: ms access - asp - multiple language Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa8-Jun-03 4:37 Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa 8-Jun-03 4:37  I guess... its fine with my IE... cus.... the first step I did for this arabic site was.... tried for a page with the arabic 'letters' typed in the html page. That shows the exact arabic text.... And the problem comes when the arabic content are picked from the ms access... Will check the IE output and get back to you soon.....

Re: ms access - asp - multiple language Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa10-Jun-03 4:35 Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa 10-Jun-03 4:35  Actually... and finally I found this..... Session.CodePage = 1252 should have been set for the arabic font to be properly SHOWN from the database. I was born intelligent Education ruined me!.

Loading pictures into a table in the same webpage Txoov6-Jun-03 4:25 Txoov 6-Jun-03 4:25  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! ljCharlie Re: Loading pictures into a table in the same webpage Megan Forbes8-Jun-03 22:03 Megan Forbes 8-Jun-03 22:03  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 Anyway, there are quite a few CPians into photography, so once you have it together feel free to share it with us $500 for a penny people, cheap at the price, just 500 big ones for a penny!

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? ljCharlie Unable to display ASP pages DotNet_Newbie5-Jun-03 11:17 DotNet_Newbie 5-Jun-03 11:17  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" 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 DotNet_Newbie5-Jun-03 8:08 DotNet_Newbie 5-Jun-03 8:08  Hello All Gurus out there, I'm facing a problem that I couldn't resolve. 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.

Although the project is set to enable ASP server-side scripts, and the debugger is correctly setup and it was working fine 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. DotNet WebDev Newbie wrote: try to set the Application Protection to isolated ( 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. "Ask not for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee..." posting XML to ASP page in IIS gerhard_schoeman5-Jun-03 1:35 gerhard_schoeman 5-Jun-03 1:35  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?

Sending form data to another website alex.barylski4-Jun-03 15:39 alex.barylski 4-Jun-03 15:39  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...?

Re: Multilingual site theJazzyBrain6-Jun-03 9:06 theJazzyBrain 6-Jun-03 9:06  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... Regards, |---------------| | theJazzyBrain  | |---------------|
