Hey folks,
Is anyone aware of any sort of asp coding to deal with long URLs? I have a
few asp that pull URLs from fields within a MS db, which then display on a
width-limited table. Is there any way to wrap these long URLs such that my
table doesn't get widened? e.g. wrapping at "/" or something similar?
Thanks for any advice,
Dave

Maybe instead of showing the url, you can do this,
<a href=<%=rsURL(" URL")%>>Click Here</a>
Would that work?

You could do somethinguse the Left function to only show the 1st 25 or so
characters of the url.
But always put the full url in the href code for the link
<a href="<% =CmdListInfo("U RL") %>"><% = Left(CmdListInf o("URL").Value) ,25)
%></a> http://www.powerasp.com/content/new/...ference-46.htm

Thanks for the idea. Well, yes, that would work but would mean someone
couldn't print the pages from their browser and be able to visit those URLs
unless I specified this differently in a print css.

Perhaps (but doubtfully): http://tinyurl.com/
"Are you sick of posting URLs in emails only to have it break when sent
causing the recipient to have to cut and paste it back together? Then you've
come to the right place. By entering in a URL in the text field below, we
will create a tiny URL that will not break in email postings and never
expires."
well, if the url is very long anyway, who would type it of a printed
document? ;-)
a solution might be do use some sort of redirecting on your site, ie
when the user types in http://mysite.com/show.asp?id=123 he is being
forwarded (request.redire ct) to http://mysite.com/somethingverylong/...thsome=options...

I have a table containing URLs. I want to be able to look up an URL very
fast, so I used an nvarchar to store the URL, and put an index on it
(maybe naive).
Anyway, I bump into:
"The index entry of length 911 bytes for the index 'UQ__URL__1367E606'
exceeds the maximum length of 900 bytes."
What's the best way to handle this? I want to do the look up fast. The
only thing I could think up was adding an extra column containing a digest
