Hi- Short answer (and probably correct answer, since you're coming from a "normal ASP" background) is no. Long answer, yes. ASP is a web application framework that defines a set of protocols and objects for a web application to interact with a web server. Contrary to popular believe, ASP is language-independent. On Windows, you will typically have access to VBScript, JavaScript, and possible PerlScript. Apache::ASP is an implementation of the ASP protocol in Perl that supports web applications exclusively in Perl. If your ASP pages are written with PerlScript, then yes, you can probably upload them and they will work with little to no fuss. However, if you mean "VBScript ASP" when you said "normal ASP", then no, you will not be able to make them easily work. IIRC, there was a patch floating around to make Apache::ASP recognize VBScript. In addition, there are numerous commercial products to implement VBScript ASP on *nix, such as ChiliSoft's ChiliASP. HTH, --Quentin On Friday, September 20, 2002, at 07:24 PM, growlin_stan wrote:
