Restrict page to open by date????

I'm trying to find out how I can make a page to be restricted to open
between Saturdays 12:05 pm until Sundays10: pm... and that.. EVERY WEEK...
is there any way at all to do this or is it just simply impossible.???
thanks

I'd have to think know about doing it using ASP.

But with client side Javascript, one could extract the current date and time
and then check it against that time window.

If it is within that time window, then reveal a hidden

The following will set a boolean value to True if the time on the server
falls between the limits set in the OP. If False, it redirects the browser
to another page.

<%
Dim opened
opened = False
If WeekDay(Now()) >= 7 And Hour(Now()) >= 12 And Minute(Now()) >= 5 Then
opened = True
If WeekDay(Now()) <= 1 And Hour(Now()) <= 22 And Minute(Now()) <> 0 Then
opened = True
If opened = False Then Response.Redirect "otherpage"
%>

Not a good idea. If the purpose is to prevent access to the content of a
page then client-side javascript can easily be disabled, rendering it
useless.

What about:
13:04
14:04
..... ?

> Then opened = True
> If WeekDay(Now()) <= 1 And Hour(Now()) <= 22 And Minute(Now()) <> 0

what about 17:00 exactly ?

WeekDay(Now()) >= 7
WeekDay(Now()) <= 1

why the < and the > ?

Try:

<%
If NOT _
( WeekDay(Now())=7 _
AND _
( ( Hour(Now())=12 AND Minute(Now())>4 ) OR Hour(Now())>12 ) )_
AND NOT _
( WeekDay(Now())=1 AND Hour(Now())<22 ) _
Then
Response.Redirect "otherpage"
End If
%>

or [I like this one better]:

<%

mn = Hour(Now())*60 + Minute(Now())
wd = WeekDay(Now())

If NOT ( wd=7 AND mn>12*60+4 ) _
AND NOT ( wd=1 AND mn<22*60 ) Then
Response.Redirect "otherpage"
End If

%>

I think the most suitable expression I can come up with is Doh!

I prefer your second one too.

At my third xmass meal my wandering mind came up with this:

<%

n = DateAdd("h", 6, Now)
'' Time zone correction in my case, server to main user group.
'' Calling now() only once prevents the minute possiblility of a
'' in row date switch.

minutes = (WeekDay(n)-1)*60*24 + Hour(n)*60 + Minute(n)
'' total of minutes since last Sunday 00:00

If ( minutes > 0*60*24+22*60-1 ) OR ( minutes < 6*60*24+12*60+5 ) Then
Response.Redirect "otherpage"
End If

%>

So we skip all those error prone NOTs.
