    - Problem with SQL-Server Constraints and Frontpage I am using a Frontpage Applikation to Save a form to a SQL-database. That works so far. My database has a foreign key constraint on the table where th form inserts its Data. An if the inserted data conflicts with that constraint it does not get inserted. So far just as it should bee. The only problem is, that even in the case the insert fails, because of the constraint, my application goes to the success URL and not to the fail URL, as I would expect. Server is a Microsoft SBS 2003, with FP-extentions enabled on the Web belonging to this Project. Any hints for me? tia Markus Tag: Fill Drop-Down With Query Tag: 46411

    - redirect after form submits results to email I think this should probably be an easy question, but I can't figure it out. How do I redirect to another page after a form has been submitted using the Send to email address form property?? I tried setting the second page to a confirmation page url but that doesn't work. It submits the form on the second page instead of displaying it. I've tried the hidden field redirect, but that's not working either. I'm the onsubmit= but it's not saving the value after it's published. It defaults a FP confirmation page. Can this be done?? Here's the form submit code: <form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onsubmit="location.href='../_derived/nortbots.htm';return false;" language="JavaScript" webbot-onSubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)" name="FrontPage_Form1"> <strong>[FrontPage Save Results Component]</strong><p align="center" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"> TIA!

    - database and email forms results with DRW Dear Mr Buyens: I am repeating my enquiry here in case my question/submission as part of the "Aug/12 Dave" ADM thread fails to raise an issue. Dear Mr. Buyens Have tried the code suggested herein (as indicated in another part of this thread), but I cant get the filed values to pass in the email, since I donâ??t know how to "intercept" the "on submit" action of the DRW webbot. I have purchased a copy of your FP03 Inside/Out book in the hopes that it would reveal how to do this ... but no joy. I include a copy of my situation from the other thread here: ------ copy ---------- I am trying to do something similar (results to both mdb and email). The interlacken code had to be modified since my ISP doesn't support CDO's, and so re-wrote it for ASPMail, and I've had to remove the "IF" construct (possible for relating to my speculation below) However, the email sends "blank field values". In my case the form/db etc are created using FP03's DRW etc. I am not sure if the webbot/onsubmit script etc is somehow intercepting the field values (including the submit button) and preventing that data to be available (e.g. not only is does the email not include the data, but also the IF construct fails since there appears to be no value in the button variable). I have tried various permutation of the email code on the form page, as well as on the confirmation page. In all cases, the best result is that an email is issued (whether or not the submit button is pressed), and the field values are null. Please advise. -----end copy ------ Tag: Fill Drop-Down With Query Tag: 46394

    - Frontpage E-Mail Message Header subject line When using Front Page to compile an on-line form for e-mail submission, is it possible to define the email subject header with predefined text and text from one of the from fields. For example, i'm aware you can choose the predifed text by placing this with-in FORM PROPERTIES then OPTIONS and EMAIL RESULTS then placing hte predefined text with-in the e-mail message header subject line, or ticking the Form Field Name and then placing the Field name in the box instead, but is it possible to use a combination of both. So if someone places their name into one of the Form Field entitled NAME then when you receive a submitted form by email the header will read something like ENQUIRY FROM 'NAME'. Can anyone help??

    - ASP webbot Hi All, I put this question in a couple of days ago, but I haven't received posting on it. Could someone have a look for me please ! Using the Database results wizard in Front Page 2002, Iâ??ve created a standard database enquiry page. This works fine, but my ultimate goal is to create a complex SQL statement outside of this page, and insert the statement into the <!â??webbot procedure. This will give me greater flexiablity in creating a SQL statement from the critera entered by a user. I can create the SQL statement and pass it to a field within a ASP page. For simplicity, in the example below, Iâ??ve just shown part of my ASP page. Iâ??ve hard-coded the SQL statement in for this example. Iâ??ve created a SQL statement and put it into a field called TEST1. I want to be able to use this field inside the <!â??webbot against the S-SQL= item. No matter how I present the TEST1 field to the S-SQL statement, it will not use the value held within it. Iâ??ve tried ::TEST1::, <%TEST1%>, etc, nothing works. Iâ??m obviously not presenting the data incorrectly. Could someone kindly drop me some hints, as Iâ??m pulling teeth !! ASP script example: <% dim test1 test1="SELECT * FROM Sol_Voidlist WHERE bedrooms=2" response.write test1 %>  <% if 0 then %> <SCRIPT Language="JavaScript"> document.write("<div style='background: yellow; color: black;'>The Database Results component on this page is unable to display database content.

    - Suddenly: Database Errors Abound Over the last 2 years I've developed quite a few ASP pages using the FP 2002 DRW to access and update 5 different database files, mostly .mdb files, with some .xls files. About 1 month ago, about 3/4 of these database queries started returning errors instead of data. I immediately surmised it was a hosting issue, and slogged through a lot of time with my host's tech support, reinstalling FP extensions, resetting permissions, removing, reinstalling, and updating FP 2002, all to no avail. After a couple weeks of telling me my code was faulty (funny, it had worked for the last two years just fine, and has not been modified), my host finally said their ODBC and MDAC components were corrupt, and that they reinstalled them with an updated version, but that now any query with a reference to a table that had a space in its name would fail. I dutifully changed the few table names and handful of queries I had against such tables, and things still failed in the same manner. Ultimately unsatisfied with the responses I was getting from the host, I finally changed hosts 2 days ago. The DNS got pointed to the new host's server yesterday, & I used FP to upload the site, only to find I'm still getting the same errors as on the previous host. The error messages I'm getting are all over the map, from "HTTP 500 - Internal server error " to "Database Results Error The operation failed. If this continues, please contact your server administrator." to " ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cc1' Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal." (This last message can be generated after correctly returning several columns of the first row of results.) The really weird thing about these failures is that other DRW queries against the same table are working perfectly!!! I've spent many hours poring over the code that FP generated, both code that works and code that fails, and it all looks fine to me. I've used the "compact and repair" function in Access 2002 on the database file, to no avail. The one semi-strange thing I noticed is the following entry in the global.asa file: <mso:connectionstatus msdt:dt="string">OSSCData_1=1 LibraryData=1 Events=0 Vendors=0 UploadedFiles=1</mso:connectionstatus> I would think that all values would be the same, since no connection was open to any of them that I was aware of. Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be broken? I'm getting desparate!!! Thanks in advance, A.D. Tag: Fill Drop-Down With Query Tag: 46264

Using FP2003 on XPPro, site hosted on WIN2000 Server, IIS6, Access 2003
database.

Is there any way to fill the selections of a drop-down box from a query?
I'm writing an application that has 40+ entry forms, each of which uses a
drop-down. I can't see any way of filling the values with a query, and
entering them individually will become an administrative nightmare.

Thanks

Sure, you can insert a database results region inside your form. But the
code will get pretty big, pretty quick if you're not carefull.

Look here http://www.outfront.net/spooky/adv_drw.htm to take out all the
extra code FP uses that you don't need.

Thanks Jeff!

That's an approach I never would have thought of. It was a very elegant
solution.
