not allow more than a specified number of submissions per IP address


I have a spammer attacking my ASP contact forms on my website. They’re just a really basic ASP form using CDO. My host suggested that I redesign the forms to not allow more than a specified number of submissions per IP address. Does anyone know how to do that?

use an image captcha into your form. google “captcha”

captcha is only effective if you’ve got spammers that are spamming your site programmatically, however. If you’ve got spammers that are going in and manually submitting your forms.

You should also check and see if the CAPTCHA has a counter to block x number of wrong submitted CAPTCHA inputs. And have a redirect to set to take them to a diffrent page when it is reached.

H-Sphere jointly with another control panel


I m using a Different control panel.Can I run H-Sphere jointly with another control panel ?

No. In order to install and use H-Sphere, you need to uninstall or stop all other control panels.

Can H-Sphere be installed on a Cobalt RAQ4i Server?

This depends on the version of Linux. If it is RedHat 7.2 or 7.3, H-Sphere can be installed, but the services that come with the server are not compatible with H-Sphere and need to be disabled.

Access Web site right after registering a account


I have just register a web hosting account. can i access my Web site right after registering a account.
U can make a Temporary Index Page for that
To do this, you will have to use an instant domain alias . Instant Domain Alias is an additional web address which lets you access your site during the first several hours after the domain name registration, the time when the site is yet unavailable at the newly registered domain. Over the next few days DNS servers all across the Internet will update themselves with your new site name. Once that happens, you will be able to access your site at the domain you have registered.

How to reach a specific folder


How to reach a specific folder in my webuser’s computer.I want when a user click a link, my asp page have to go a spesific folder

is there any ocx or dll to reach webuser’s computer?

ocx came from Microsoft on MSN Space. when user accept activex, it reads our harddisk to add pitcures. There must have been an ocx. I have to find or I will die

no, u can not do it

You can make an ocx yourself, but it works on IE only.

with the using of FSO (File System Object), u can read a file

Code:

<%
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f=fs.OpenTextFile("C:/Documents and Settings/username/blabla.txt", 1)
Response.Write(f.ReadAll)
f.Close
Set f=Nothing
Set fs=Nothing
%>
Browsers don't allow this due to user's security settings. Firefox and opera strictly forbid this, while IE uses security zone to enforce the permissions given to web page.

Code:
<%
Set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f=fs.OpenTextFile("C:/Documents and Settings/username/blabla.txt", 1)
Response.Write(f.ReadAll)
f.Close
Set f=Nothing
Set fs=Nothing
%>

thats for the server that hosts your site or for client side

that's for server side.

just a newbie in web development, also in ASP and PHP.
i just wanna ask how to send the data gathered from forms to emails?

Plz. help

Here is a php script that will send any form information to an e-mail address

Code:

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != "POST"){exit;}
$message = "";
while(list($key,$value) = each($_POST)){if(!(empty($value))){$set=1;}$message = $message . "$key: $valuenn";} if($set!==1){header("location: $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]");exit;}
$message = stripslashes($message);
$to = "yourmail@yourdomain.com";

{
   echo("<h1>Thank You</h1>");

}
web host support different types of DLLs that are used for send email.

Yes steve
 
 Windows NT - 2000 support CDONTS by default, Windows 2000 and 2003 support CDOSYS by default. Many providers support CDONTS on 2003 as well as other objects such as ASPEmail, Jmail and others.Code:
Code:
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] != "POST"){exit;}
$message = "";
while(list($key,$value) = each($_POST)){if(!(empty($value))){$set=1;}$message = $message . "$key: $valuenn";} if($set!==1){header("location: $_SERVER[HTTP_REFERER]");exit;}
$message = stripslashes($message);
$to = "yourmail@yourdomain.com";
$subject = "Your Subject";
if (mail($to, $subject, $message))

{
   echo("<h1>Thank You</h1>");

Thanks stevon but have another question...
 
 How do we email multiple fields using PHP?
 For example, in here mail($to, $subject, $message), you are only allowed one variable: $message. What if your form contains, say, 4 variables that need to be emailed.

Try this code, I Hope it will help You.
Code:
$message = "The following data subimitted: n
variable1: ".$var1."n
"variable2: ".$var2."n
"variable3: ".$var3."n
"variable4: ".$var4."nn Thank You";

$to = "yourmail@yourdomain.com";
$subject = "Your Subject";
if (mail($to, $subject, $message))

{
echo("<h1>Thank You</h1>");

}

Uploading Site using H-Sphere


How can i Upload my Site using H-Sphere control panel.

Whenever possible, upload your site using the utilities that come with your web-site development software. For instance, if you made your site with SiteStudio, FrontPage or Dreamweaver, use their integrated web publishing tools. If you made your site with simple text editors, or if your site-building software does not have a publishing utility, use freestanding FTP clients, such as CuteFTP, SmartFTP, or the built-in web-based FTP agent.

Please note that site publishing tools don’t remove your old web content from the server. For instance, if you used SiteStudio to upload a site with 15 pages and later you published an updated 7 page version of this site, your directory on the server will have all the new pages and the old pages that haven’t been overwritten. If you publish many versions of the website, the site may become cluttered with old files. Warning: If you have a complete website, be careful not to overwrite it with a publish command.
