i remember some time ago there was another thread in this newsgroup thinking of adding some kind of "special VBScript detecting intelligence" to Apache ASP. It's in normal cases a really unneccesary feature and therefore it's priority is probably very low on the task list :) but a clear error message "DO NOT USE VBSCRIPT WITH APACHE ASP" in the error log or just as a fix output page would have saved this poor guy - and propably you too - a lot of time... Maybe for the time being a quick and dirty hack could be a solution to this: just search / match in the input file for some of the most used keywords of VBScript and in case one of those is found stop all the processing and output such an error message. The problem of this solution would be that users who e.g. want to write a web-page "about VBScript" would eventually have those keywords in the normal textual context of the page. Therefore this functionallity could enabled / disabled by a switch CheckVBScript which is default enabled. A user not using VBScript bu caught by this checkup functionality would then be adviced to read a special page within the documentation of Apache-ASP and there be introduced to that switch... Just an idea... Uwe Riehm ___________________________________________ Uwe Riehm Director TBOOKERŪ Ltd.
