(ASP) Ceiling and Floor

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:38:42 GMT

In mathematics, there are two elementary special functions called ceiling() and floor() which allow us to round up or down, respectively, to the nearest whole number. These functions exist natively in PHP, but not in ASP. They are handy in situations where you want to force a number like 15.8 to round down to 15, but the round() function rounds it up to 16 according to the standard rules for rounding.

(ASP) Base Conversion

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:34:55 GMT

PHP's base conversion functions ported to ASP. Limited to base 36, but could be extended beyond that. See corresponding blog spot and code comments for more information on what would need to be done.

(ASP) Immediate If

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:31:21 GMT

The iif() function in Visual Basic is sometimes more convenient than a full-blown if...then...else... control structure. Oddly enough, the function does not exist in VBScript.

(PHP) Proper Case

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:29:27 GMT

An alias for the ucwords() function to make it consistent with strtolower() and strtoupper().

(ASP) Proper Case

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:28:32 GMT

Replica of the PCase() function from Visual Basic for VBScript. Slightly different in that it supports Scottish and Irish names like MacDonald and O'Brien.

(Apache) Force SSL

Mon, 19 May 2008 15:01:57 GMT

There are some things here worth noting. We are checking if HTTPS is off. Some people will instead check if traffic is coming from port 80, the standard HTTP port, or not coming from 443, the standard HTTPS port. Checking port numbers is not the best solution because the server administrator can set up HTTP and HTTPS to run on different ports. It's also worth noting that QueryString variables are preserved, if any are being passed. Most other examples I've seen on the Internet ignore the QueryString variables, which leads to navigation problems.
