Creating a Guestbook

  • 아티클

This lesson requires that you have Access installed on your system and is not supported on 64-bit platforms until Access is developed for 64-bit platforms.

Guest books allow your Web site visitors to leave behind information, such as their names, e-mail addresses, and comments. In this lesson, you perform the following tasks after creating an Access database:

  • Example 1: Create an ASP page to connect to the database using only the ADO Connection object.

  • Example 2: Create an ASP page to connect to the database using the Connection object and the Command object together.

  • Example 3: Create an ASP page to display the guest book information from the database in a browser.

Create an Access Database

Create an Access database called GuestBook.mdb, and save it in x:\Inetpub\Wwwroot\Tutorial. Create a table in the database called GuestBook. Use the Create Table Using Design View option in Access to add the following fields and properties:

Field Name

Data Type

Field General Properties

FID

AutoNumber

Field Size=Long Integer, New Values=Increment, Indexed=Yes(No Duplicates)

FTB1

Text

Field Size=255, Required=No, Allow Zero Length=Yes, Indexed=No

FTB2

Text

Field Size=255, Required=No, Allow Zero Length=Yes, Indexed=No

FTB3

Text

Field Size=255, Required=No, Allow Zero Length=Yes, Indexed=No

FTB4

Text

Field Size=255, Required=No, Allow Zero Length=Yes, Indexed=No

FMB1

Memo

Required=No, Allow Zero Length=Yes

Create an ASP Page to Add Data to Your Access Database

Now that you have created a database, you can build an ASP page to connect to your database and read incoming data using ActiveX Data Objects (ADO). ADO is a collection of objects with methods and properties that can manipulate data in almost any type of database. (If you plan to use databases frequently, you should purchase a programmer's reference book for ADO. Only the most basic ADO code is illustrated in the following examples, enough to open, read in, and write to a database.)

The next two examples produce the same results; however, the first example uses only the Connection object, and the second example gives part of the job to the Command object, which is much more powerful. Compare both examples to see how the objects become connected together. After you are comfortable with the objects, use an ADO programmer's reference to experiment with more methods and properties.

To see an example of an ADO error in your ASP page, try browsing to the page after renaming your database, after entering a typing mistake in the connection string, or after making the database Read Only.

Example 1: Using Only the ADO Connection Object

Copy and paste the following code in your text editor, and save the file as GuestBook1.asp in the x:\Inetpub\Wwwroot\Tutorial directory. View the example with your browser by typing https://localhost/Tutorial/GuestBook1.asp in the address bar.

Example 3: Display the Database in a Browser

After information is entered in a database, you can use a Web page containing another script to view and edit the data. Not much changes in the ADO code, except the way you define your query. In the last two examples, you used the INSERT INTO query to add records to a database. In this example, you use the SELECT query to choose records from a database and display them in the browser. You also use the DELETE query to remove records from the database. The only query not used in these examples is the UPDATE query, whose syntax is like that of the INSERT INTO query. The UPDATE query allows you to change fields in a database.
