If you are using an ACCESS Database try to avoid using a system DSN. They are much slower because they go through ODBC which then uses the Jet Drivers to access the database. They also have to do a registry lookup.\r\n\r\nWhen you use a DSN-LESS connection with ASP theJet Drivers are accessed directly and the performance increase can be dramatic especially with the newer versions of MDAC installed on the server which are especially slow with Access System DSN's.
This article will introduce issues relating to programming in ASP. Focused mainly on database interaction, the issue of security will also be discussed. This article will assume that you have a beginners knowledge of ASP and little or no knowledge of database interaction with Microsoft Access.
The difference between a function and a sub is that a sub will do some stuff (like printing somethingto the screen) and then quit, while a function runs some code and then returns the result back. A Function could be used to do a calculation and then return a result.
As far as long-term code maintenance is concerned, ASP could be one of the worst environments ever created. I mean, here we have tons of code where logic is barely separated from content and sometimes not at all. Corporations literally are stuck with millions of lines of hard-to-follow ASP code and they will be paying for it in years to come, which is great for developers because it keeps us in business. And don't get me started on debugging ASP.
An article on how to implement custom tags using regular expressions, giving your users the power to include custom functionality within their pages without knowing any ASP.\r\n
Recursive navigation is a form of hierarchical navigation, using different levels of pages, where all pages other than the "top-level" pages belong to a "parent" page. This in itself isn't anything special, and is used on plenty of websites. The more interesting part of recursive navigation is the "recusrive" part. Using recursion it is possible to have an unlimited number of levels without having an unlimited amount of code.
The Object-Oriented Programming was one of the biggest breakthroughs programmers ever made. It's a different approach to programming, which will make your life a lot easier when you deal with long programs.
This ASP over e-mail system is called Mail Server Pages (MSP), and is fully transactional. Developers can convert their existing ASP pages within minutes, and reuse all of their ASP components in the e-mail setting.\r\n\r\n
There are many Cat Age Calculators on the web these days but I developed this one in Active Server Pages which converts a cat's actual years to people years.
