ASP Component Test

A simple ASP Script test to see if 171+ different server components are installed for you to use on your server. Links to the developer's websites are included as well as additional information for installed COMs such as version information, DLL name, path, and more. All components are cartegorized and can be sorted.

Some hosts will allow members to install custom server components for a fee. Now you can see just what is installed and available for you to use. Unfortunately this script does not check to ensure the component is configured properly, but you can test this by creating a simple script that uses that component and testing it.

Insert, Delete, Update on same page

This tutorial explains how to have Insert, Delete and Update actions on a single page. The reason I created this was because I did not want to create various forms for certain tasks.
Instead of using three forms or three pages here is a one page solution that works well for what I wanted to do.

The form posts to itself picking up the hidden value and performs the action. 
I also added a function to deal with single quotes.

This tutorial assumes you have limited knowledge of handcoding.
It utilises UD's connection string, it's also based on frames.

I will be updating this tutorial in the next couple of weeks.
But download files from the link below.

Think of it, for any web project you have anywhere from 8-15 people tightly involved with the decisions, design, programming, content and management. In the real world, you know that any Web project must be done in 6-12 weeks. Any longer and the data you are working with is already becoming obsolete. Sure, there are some applications you can buy to help manage your projects, but none of the “off the shelf” software addresses the specifics of Web projects. The Web is about fast, efficient and immediate. So, how do you manage client expectations while keeping the lines of communication open? Read More
