The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Onchange Please READ 500 Points

Asked by Scripter25 in JavaScript

Ok here it goes I posted this under the ASP section already with no reply so hopefully I get a reply under the javascript section


I know Dundas Upload is a bit old but it was free so I took it and believe it or not it works well so far on server 2003

Ok I need to get the filename from the file box (text box) before it is uploaded to the server.

This is why
I do not like the unique file name feature they have for it but seeing as how there will definately be some schmuck out there that willl upload the a different file with the same name and overwrite the first one I need to use it only in those instances.

So here it goes I need to check the filename that is in the filebox prior to it being uploaded and verify that it is not already on the server

So I am not sure how to get that name using the Dundas control but I am pretty sure that I could use a javascript function on that filebox by utilizing the Onchange() ..... Now here is the million dolloar question how do you write a javascript function that will take the value of the filebox and take everything away execpt for the filename? I could have that the javascript function automatically post that into a hidden field so that I can pass that over to the second form.


If that is not the best way to go about it and someone has a better way please let me know.....
