is asp not supported on your servers? if not, why not?

[LisaJill]

.asp only runs on Windows servers. We run all Linux servers. So no, ASP won't run on our servers. =)

Actually there is a project for linux that support .asp

 

It can be found here

We have no plans on implementing this, but thought I would correct Lisa's statement on only for windows.

There's also that Chillisoft ASP, or whatever it's called. It's an implementation of ASP for Apache.

Didn't Sun buy Chilisoft?

[borfast]

Yes, I think they did.

I also think Chillisoft ASP never really took off. Don't know why, though.

I've redesigned my site to use SSI with .asp files (which I only just learned, and a very little bit), and it seems to be working fine, except in Netscape. All I did was add .asp files to the Apache Handler thing.

 

check it out... http://www.grinningmoon.com/index.asp

 

Is there a way to make it work in Netscape? Right now, I just do a browser check and tell Netscape users to switch to IE.

Welcome to the Family Cowboyfrank

 

and your new home!

Your site does not display in Opera, netscape or fire fox also,

I just see your .asp code

We do not support .asp and that is why it is not working.

IE must have a way to display it, but if you want everyone to see your site

you may want to look into php to do the same thing.

 

We really are like family here.

So if you need anything,

just ask your new family!

We love to help

[CowboyFrank]

could i just simply resave the .asp pages as .php, or is it more complicated than that?

 

Thanks for the warm welcome!

[TCH-Don]

What asp code are you using, show an example, I do not know asp.

Welcome to the family Cowboyfrank!

 

I'm confused they look just like HTML pages from viewing the source.

[TCH-Rob]

Here is an ASP include

 

<!-- #INCLUDE FILE="../includes/header.asp" -->

 

Here is a PHP include

 

include ("header.php");

 

PHP and ASP are similar but the syntax is different and ASP is also designed to work with VBScript.

 

I think it works because IE knows how to handle the output even though the extension has changed. Must be another IE "feature".

Hey CowboyFrank,

 

Mime type is text/plain for the page in question. You need to send it as text/html. Do you know how to configure mime types in CPanel or .htaccess?

 

HTH,

Carol

[TCH-Bruce]

Here is an ASP include

 

<!-- #INCLUDE FILE="../includes/header.asp" -->

That syntax is also correct when using .shtml for an extension.

[TCH-Don]

Yes it looks the same.

Frank, I would try to resave your pages as .shtml to see if your includes work

and are ok in other browsers.

 

However in the long run php includes

and php scripting will give you more power.
