Hi all,

Happy ester holidays and lets hope the summers holidays will be here very soon!

So, I am using Pure ASP Upload 2 to upload my images on the server.

What I would like to do is to re-write the image name (e.g.myLogo.gif) with a unique randomly generated 9-digit number, so the "myLogo.gif" image become something like 123456789.gif.

Also, how can I make my content/text to appear on the site in paragraphs?

It seems to me that ASP somehow eliminates the breaks and paragraphs and the text on the page appears as a large piece of text with no brakes and/or paragraphs.

I use MS Access 2000 and the text area is being set to VIRTUAL.

Any tips or ideas?

Thanks in advance.

here's how to make your textarea contents in paragraphs.

<%

dim usrComment
usrComment = Request.Form("comment"

usrComment = Replace(usrComment, vbCrLf, "<br />" + vbCrLf)

%>

However, sorry I can't help you with your first question. I haven't tried using ASP Upload 2 scripts.

Hope this one helps.

I Use this for renaming some PDF files

<%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT" %>
<%
var fso, f2 ;
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject";

f2 = fso.GetFile("C:\\Home\\g\\c\\gcs\\www\\pdf\\"+Request.QueryString("filename");

f2.Copy ("C:\\Home\\g\\c\\gcs\\www\\pdf\\"+Session("RNDNumber"+".pdf";

Response.Write("File renamed!";
