I have many functions writen into useable C builder 5 dlls.
I tried ASP pages and got a few things to work.
I would like to use my Cbuilder 5 dlls in ASP type pages.
But ASP and ActiveX and MIDL and IIS just work in windows and explorer.
What are more universal ways of making interactive web pages?
In order to use my dlls:
dlls ->MIDL ->Com/activex ->IIS ->ASP
and then "only works in windows explorer?"
 

Hello John,
There are many serverside technologies that compete with and provide
alternatives to ASP - for example JSP, PHP, CGI, ZOPE, etc. These also
provide for ways to plug in reusable chunks of code. For example, with JSP
instead of using a client side ActiveX you would probably using an Applet;
and if your page invoked a COM object on the server side [i.e.
runat="server"] then you could use a java bean or a plain java class in your
.JSP page.
I would recommend doing a search for "Server-side Technology" on Google.

Bruneau.
