HELP! ASP and SQL problem.

M

Munzilla

Ok, I have an ASP page that I use to add several pieces of information
to a database and also display that information in an edit mode. The
problem is, when I use the page for edit, not all of the info is drawn
out of the database. Some of the information is drawn out and
displayed properly, but other information is not. The strangest part
is if I do a response.write to display the objRS() from the database
of a field that isn't coming up, it works. Here is the code to show
you what I'm talking about.
This is really weird, and any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!

use

value="<%=server.htmlencode(data variable here)%>

in your input statements.

Also please read the following links as it looks like you are still
using a DSN/ODBC connection.

THanks for the help. DO you mean that I should do this for the
initial input statements or for displaying the data that is drawn and
fed into the input statements? Or both?
Thanks.

Actually, I tried that and it didn't work. The strangest part to me
is that it works if I have a response.write write out the variable's
value early on in the code. When I don't do that, it no longer works.
Why would my writing it out aid the variable in being properly set and
acknowledged?
Thanks.

If you view source on the rendered page what do you see for one of the input
tags that does not display the data?

What you describe with Response.Write is the opposite of what people usually
report (column data sometimes disappears after the first access for text
columns). Try putting the data into a variable first so that the recordset
column in only accessed once and then writing it out as many times as
needed.

Actually, it doesn't show us anything. :)

We'd need to know the input and what ouput you receive versus what
you're looking for. At first guss your input isn't escaping quote
characters.
