Creating a News management system (Part 4)Below is the code for our page 'display_news.asp' which will display the records in our table 'tblNews'. The code is all documented and explained. Remember this is the only front end file that we intend our visitors to see. 'Display_news.asp' <%@ Language="VBScript" %>
<% Option Explicit %> <html> <head><title>News</title> </head> <body> <div align="center">Basic News Management System</div> <% 'declare your variables Dim Connection, sConnString, SQL, Recordset 'declare SQL statement that will query the database SQL = "SELECT * FROM tblNews" 'create ADO connection and recordset object Set Connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set Recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") 'define connection string, specify database driver and location of database sConnString="PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _ "Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("db/news.mdb") 'Open the connection to the database Connection.Open(sConnString) 'Open recordset object executing the SQL statement & returning the records Recordset.Open SQL, connection 'Check to see if there are any records with the End of File (EOF) property If recordset.Eof Then Response.write "<br>Sorry there is no current new." Else 'As there are records lets loop through the records until we come to the end Do while not recordset.Eof response.write recordset("headline") & "<br>" response.write recordset("news_story") & "<br>" response.write recordset("story_date") & "<br><br>" 'move on to the next record recordset.movenext Loop End If 'We are done so lets close the connection and the recordset recordset.Close Set recordset = Nothing connection.Close Set connection = Nothing %> </body> </html> Save the page in the 'news' folder. We will now set up a form to enter news stories to our database.
