trouble creating a zodiac sign web service...

I would like to create a web service that returns the zodiac sign of a given date.

The problem I am having is that I have no idea how to do the following:

I receive a DateTime object with the date as a ShortDateFormat (e.g. 3/1/2005), and I would like to compare this to make sure it falls within a range of dates (compare it to a date range of February 20- March 20 for example) and it returns true. At which point I return the String "Pisces."

Any help on how to do this is greatly appreciated. The problem I don't understand is how to compare a date to a date range and see if it falls within it or not!

Thanks in advance

p.s. sorry if this is in the wrong section but I posted in XML Web Services as well :)Hi,
As far as I know there is no scalar to range comparison. Use simple search algorithm to locate relevant range. You can sort your zodiac date ranges by starting date, compare your input date to starting date, until you find first starting date greater then input date, use previous range.
yea or convert all the days to a numeric day of the year (0-364(5) or 1-365(6)), then set numeric ranges for all the zodiac signs (100-131 = pices for example), then you can convert the entered date to a number and tell where it "fits in" to the zodiac ranges.
I created the service using a select statement on the month part alone.

Then each case is for each month, and then it has an if to say whether it is less than or equal to a specific day at which point it returns the correct zodiac sign.

For example, if I put in the date 3/1/05 it should return Pisces.

Select Month(dateObj)
Case 3
If Day(dateObj) <=21 Then
return "Pisces"
Else: Return "Aries"

and so on...

Of course the dateObj is the date that is returned.

Now I am trying to make the date not be cultural specific. Any ideas how this is done?
Basically, in some parts of the world they enter the date as dd/mm/yy but in other parts its mm/dd/yy. So that's what I meant by not cultural specific.

Thanks.

Trouble creating new directory

Hello,
I am using c# and running a site that is on a shared
host. The code in question is supposed to create a new
directory that is coming out of a text box.

It works fine on my computer, but I get the following
stack trace:

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a
part of the path "D:\". at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError
(Int32 errorCode, String str) at
System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String
fullPath, String path) at System.IO.DirectoryInfo.Create
() at testapps.createdir.CreateSubDirectory(String direc)

The code to create is as follows:

public bool CreateSubDirectory(string direc)
{
bool returnStatus = false;
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(@dotnet.itags.org.direc);
if(di.Exists)
{
Trace.Write("Directory exists " +
di.FullName);
this.Label1.Text = "Directory exists";
}
else
{
Trace.Write("Directory does not exist " +
di.FullName);
this.Label1.Text = "Directory does not
exists";
try
{
di.Create();
if(di.Exists)
{
Trace.Write("Directory exists
after creating it");
this.Label1.Text += "Directory
exists after creating it";
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
this.Label1.Text += "Error trying to
create directory that did not exist " + ex.ToString();
Trace.Write("Error creating directory
that does not exist " + ex);
}
}
return returnStatus;
}

Any ideas or suggestions, it works great on my local
machine?

shelman2@dotnet.itags.org.hotmail.comThis may be a misnomer of an error, but I think the root of your problem (no
pun intended) is that you don't have permissions to get at data outside of
your configured directory on the Host server. Imagine if you could - you can
probe the entire server and scavage all the other site's files which would
be a bit of a security risk to say the least.

Thanks, that makes sense. I have contacted my host and they do not have
a clue what to do. Any suggestions of how I could get this working?

What do you need access to the root for?

Basically your domain probably runs under a specific user account they've
set up for you. That username needs rights to access the directories you
want to access. Since htey lock it down they should have a clue what to do

Hi, thanks for responding back to my message.

I don't need root access I think, I am just trying to create a new
directory for each new user that matches a username they choose while
signing up from our website. We create a new jad file which is for their
java enabled cell phone. We are able to create the file using
StreamWriter and File.Create(), only the directory is giving us trouble.

The hosting company is not sure when we called them, they said they were
researching it. I have tried to use the
\\SERVER\OURUSERACCOUNTNAME\DIRECTORY but that gives us the message:
System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a
part of the path "D:\". at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError
(Int32 errorCode, String str) at
System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String
fullPath, String path) at System.IO.DirectoryInfo.Create
() at testapps.createdir.CreateSubDirectory(String direc)

We are really not sure what to do next. Seems like the
d:\inetput\wwwroot\OURUSERACCOUNTNAME\wwwRoot\jads which works when we
use the File.Create(PATH) does not work here.

Thanks for all the help so far, any more would be great.

I think the problem may be share permissions. I had this problem once myself
where the root directory required directory read access or else shares
weren't accessible. I can't remember the details now exactly, but ultimately
it ended up being that I added EveryOne with directory read rights on the
root dir...

Bummer that htis is at an ISP which will make experimenting and trying to
find this issue a lot more work than if you can try it yourself <g

Trouble when creating new ASP .NET Web Project in Visual Studio .NET 2003

Hi all, my name is Ivan and I'm sort of newbie in ASP .NET

I installed Visual Studio .NET 2003, and also IIS 5.1 on OS XP Professional SP2.

I created and developed some great windows applications in Studio, but when I tried to do the same while creating new ASP .NET Project and New Web Project I received an error HTTP:1.1 500 Internal Server Error

Help me out, please

Hi did u check whether your IIS is running?

also try to browse ur page from IIS MMC...

also check whether you are getting any entries in your event log when u get this error

Thanks for the reply.

1. My IIS is running, of course.

2. I named my asp web project as "NewASPProj" and it is in C:\InetPub\wwwroot directory on my system.

I tested it with opening my IE and typed URL: http://localhost

It opened two asp pages IIS start and IIShelp.

3. As for the messages in event log I'll post it on a forum in a few days

Hi Ivan,

Based on my understanding, when you wanted to create the asp.net 1.x application with Visual Studio 2003, you got the error message above. If I have misunderstood you, please feel free to let me know.

The error message "HTTP:1.1 500 Internal Server Error" indicates that your server encounter an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request.

Please make sure that the IIS works correctly. We can execute the iisreset at the command prompt to reset the IIS's setting. Besides, we should configure your asp.net 1.x application properly on the IIS.

For more information, seehttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/822319.

I hope this helps.

trouble with masterpages and link href

I have a very strange problem. Simply creating a Masterpage with nothing in
it but the Content Area and then making a page that uses this masterpage and
has a DataView Control, binds to a DataSet works ok.
But as soon as I add:
<link href="http://links.10026.com/?link=~/css/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /
to the Masterpage (with or without ~ doesn't matter) gives:
Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object required

what could this be ?Do you have anything in your styles.css file?

Trouble with Radiobuttons

Hi,

I am working on this project of creating webforms and this one particular page has a bunch of radiobuttons in it. Once the user clicks one of the radiobuttons and then clicks on submit, the user is redirected to a different webform. In the event handler for the submit button, I check to see if that one particular radiobutton has been clicked or not ,kinda like this below:

privatevoid InitializeComponent()

{

this.submit_button.Click +=new System.EventHandler(this.submit_button_Click);

}

privatevoid submit_button_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

{

if (radiobutton1.Checked ==true)

{

Response.Redirect("page1.aspx");

}

The problem is when I check radiobutton1 and then click submit, nothing happens and I stay on the same page. I ran the debugger and it didn't even step through the code. Can anyone help me out here?

Try this - uses both types of radio button/list

Thanks for the response...I am working with .aspx files...So instead of embedding scripts like you suggested, I have to write backend code in the .aspx.cs files..Its just that after I click on the submit button it should hit that part of the code where I have the event handler in case the submit button is clicked. I still can't figure out why its not doing that...I am working on a visual studio 2003 platform
