Hi! have a problem with classic asp. The encoding gets wrong when I send data with XMLHttp.send. The response is an pdf file, but the “ÆØÅ” gets wrong, the “Ø” is read as “øy” for example. It’s like it’s a converting mistake from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1, but it should be ISO-8859-1 now. I have <%@CODEPAGE="28591"%> at the top at the page...
I'm making some changes to a legacy classic ASP application. I've made the changes locally, and now I want to copy the changed files to the server. At the same time, I need to download the Access database, add some fields to some tables, and upload it again. For this reason, I need to be able to stop visitors from modifying the database ...
I'm migrating a website made in classic asp to asp.net, but the asp.net dev server doesn't handle .asp pages. Is it possible to make it run .asp pages? Maybe a custom httphandler for .asp? thanks! ...
For example, how can I run me.test below? myvar = 'test' me.myvar ASP looks for the method "myvar" and doesn't find it. In PHP I could simply say $me->$myvar but ASP's syntax doesn't distinguish between variables and methods. Suggestions? Closely related to this, is there a method_exists function in ASP Classic? Thanks in advance! ...

My colleague here argues that new programmers must learn ASP first, before they learn ASP.Net. I seem to agree with him as most new programmers who start with ASP.Net do not understand web get, post and state management :( Which is best to learn web programming Classic ASP or ASP.Net? ...
We've got a classic ASP application that is putting out some very large reports, where the resulting HTML is several MBs. We've made a lot of progress in trimming this down by reducing extraneous HTML, but I'd like to know if there's any way to enable GZIP compression on these dynamic .asp pages. I'm sure compressing them would be an eno...
I want to provide users of a VB ASP Classic website (a well-defined group) with a button which will stop and restart an application running in a visible window on a particular user's desktop on the webserver. The users do not have direct access to the machine (either physically or via vnc, rdp, etc), and this application needs to be ru...
I had a parametrized insert statement that was working well and I needed to add a select statement and wrap it all in a transaction in order to get data for one of the fields for the insert. I'm not sure if I've hit a limitation with ASP/ADO or if I've just got something syntactically wrong. Here's my code: set oSQLCommand = Server.Cr...
I am the programmer for the Education department at a county hospital. I would like to be able to see some real-time stats on an IIS6 web server that is only accessible in-house.

Hi, I hope someone can help me out with this: I have a classic ASP application that works fine on older versions of IIS but not on IIS7. The asp code calls COM+ activeX dll's (written in VB6) and I have managed to get everything running fine except for one program where the ActiveX dll calls another 3rd party non-activeX dll. At that...
I'm working on an older classic ASP site, and there's a form that allows the user to enter some text (into a multiline textbox), and if they add an html character like (register trademark) it inserts it correctly. But when they go to edit the data, using the same form, the update will add a random 'Â' (circumflex accent) in front of the...
Is it possible to catch ASP errors in ASP.Net (setup custom error pages in IIS) and somehow gain access to the Err oject or something similar like you would using server.GetLastError() in VBScript? Thanks. ...
The site I'm working on is done in Classic ASP, and I'm trying to do it as best as possible.
