    - Disk based web question I am getting ready to make a disk based web site. It is going to be very simple. Question and answers form. then at end of questions and answers I want it to print the results. Now heres my question. I have worked with Forms before in fact I have several web based forms that email the gathered information. What can any of you reccomend as to how I transfer the information input to a printiable form. Is there some easy way of doing this? NONE of the information is going to be stored beyond the print except the hard print copy. I don't need a data base. this is just going to be point and click answers - Print results. Any help welcomed. Thanks in advance. PS. Maybe some of you may know a script I can down load for a small fee or for free. PHP or something, and can post the link.

    - Linking to a secure page This is the first time I have ever run across the. I'm using FP98. The code look OK, and it works perfecting in preview. After I have moved the file to my staging server, you click on the link to the https site, and a new window opens properly, but everytime I receive a "page can not be displayed" error. If I refresh the browser window to the secure site , it works perfectly. I'm guessing that i'm missinga setting in FP or something in the code Help Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 39045

    - PLEASE HELP - assistance needed for making expandible links I am working on a website for my office - stricly for internal inventory-type purposes. I have weekly Excel Spreadsheets which I incorporate to pages in FrontPage which are already set up to use. However, the 'index' page where these items can be clicked needs some work. I've been instructed to make each link, which expands to show all the weeks in each month and their respective inventory counts, expandible/collapsible or however it should be phrased. Basically I need the link to open to sublinks upon being clicked. I may not be explaining this perfectly, but if my request is clear to anyone who's performed this action before, your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance - and by the way, this looks like a great group! AMH Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 39028

    - Email relaying Hello, I am wondering if this can be done with FP I have posted it before and received a ambiguous answer but it was also not directly posted so here goes. I have a total at this time 5 web sites and I have two servers, one is a few miles away. I want to off-load 3 of these sites to that server (which I have no problem publishing to) The problem that I face is the mail server is Here with me and I cannot get the forms to work over there. (Email that is) I have no problem letting the IP through on my end but how do tell FP to do this or FPSE for that matter? Can I set the server a few miles away to relay or Use my mail server with FP ? Has anyone tried this? I am doing it because of resource depletion over here with me and a very large site launch in September. Thanks very much Joe Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 39015

    - Link with input attached ? Hello I'm new here and I have a thorny problem (for me anyway!) I need to have a link from a web page to another page on the same intranet. The problem is that the target page needs some input to give the required info back to the user. So I need something like : link to page skip three input fields use input from original page (text input) to call further info from target page (database) I have no idea where to look for guidance or what such a procedure might be called. Any advice or 'pointing me in the right direction' would be greatly appreciated :~) TIA Jenny Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 38990

    - multiplyng link-bars I've volunteered to make some minor changes to a FP 2000 published website. I have FP 2002 on my development machine. I was able to open the website with file/open and publish it back to my machine. I am not able to file/open web the website on the internet. Therefore, I do not have the theme: pvwood111. Is pvwood111 an older MS theme or someone's custom theme? Any recommendations other than contacting the original website author? It is not copyrighted. One more item: Each time I open some of the pages on my machine, the link bars are copied and left on the page. If I open and close the page 4 times, I'll have 4 sets of the same link bar. One is sufficient! Any ideas here also? Thanks, Crow Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 38973

    - drw question Hopefully somebody out there can help me as I am stuck with a project I am working on at the moment. I have a web page that links to other pages and passes parameters to them. One of the parameters is the userid of the logged on person which is stored in a cookie. When I put the following code directly into an asp page : <a href="http://www.test.com?a=3686&b=<%response.write(request.Cookies("UserID" ))%> " target="_blank"></a> it works fine and the page translates this to (assuming I was signed on as testuser) : http://www.test.com?a=3686&b=testuser So that seems fine. I am now trying to change the page so that it is built dynamicaly from a database to save me future maintenance. When I use the Database Results Wizard to pass the link above, it does not seem to handle the response.write code and the link translates as : http://www.test.com?a=3686&b=<%response.write(request.Cookies("UserID"))%> I have also tried using the normal parameters but this ends up translating as : http://www.test.com?a=3686&b=::UserID:: I have change the receiving cell to show as HTML but is still does not work. Anybody know how to correct this or how I can pass a variable parameter from a database through the DRW? Thanks in advance Grebo Tag: Data extraction from HTML source using C++ Tag: 38927

    - Database Connection Strings I have a few simple Access tables to store data in. The PF2002 wizards work fine for the input. However, I want to retrieve data from those table and concantenate the fields to create my own formatting. The wizards only allow table type views. I can not find any reference books that show how to set up a simple connection string, access the fields I need, and allow me to manipulate them. (for simple example-[LastName] & ", " & [FirstName] & " " & [MiddleInitial]. The reference books I have show me how to set up a SQL Server string, or a connection to a local harddrive using Access.

I've tried exporting from Frontpage, File/Save from Explorer, and File/Save as to my HD using Frontpage. But those only save specific pages, and even then they don't save the linked images in those pages. Do most people have and edit their websites on their hard drive and then "publish" them to their hosts server? Or do they have their sites ONLY on the hosts server?

    - Checkbox group I have a editclient asp file. It allows the user to update the client info like address and other information. One field I have in the sql table is DisabilityCode. A person can be Vision, Physical, Conitive...They are coded by the first initials. So for one client, they can have up to 5 codes....for example, they could be CPV, PV or just V. How should I go about setting up a field on the webpage to allow the customer service rep to choose what code applies to the client? I was thinking of doing a checkbox group...so the client just checks the boxes that apply. When saving to the sql table, asp automatically saves it as "C, P, V" or "C, P". For this: When a CSR goes to edit a client info, if the text field has "C, P", how can I have the C and P checkbox already checked for them? Another option would have each code be its own checkbox. I would still have to do an if then statement for each checkbox to have it checked or not when the CSR goes to that webpage. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Microsoft has an XML parser and toolkit that you can download. I'm sure you
could call it from C++. I don't remember the details but if you search on
the msdn website you should be able to find it. If you're using C++ in .Net
then the .Net framework itself has powerful XML tools.
