Hi - I purchased a quiz program form WebQuiz XP. I have the choices of .js and .asp formats. I first chose .js - but after getting the error: "A script on this page is causing IE to run slowly. If it continues to run your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort this script? Yes or No" - I decided to pursue a different approach.

I asked the quiz support staff about this and they suggested I format the quizzes in .asp format. So I tried that - and now...when I publish the quiz - it shows up as HTML.

Since I am a novice - I need some help to get these quizzes online. The quiz support has not responded...so thought maybe someone here could help me. I really need to get these online...one deadline has come and gone already!
Thanks.

Regards,
Pam

hi,

ASP is client-side scripting, which means that the code is ran at the web server before it even reaches the client. The results of the ASP code is send to the client browser in HTML format, so if it shows as HTML in the browser then it worked!

Okay - I felt confident after reading your posts..to go ahead and upload it to the test area of my server. UGH! It said permission denied - that I don't have permission to load the database. Now wha?

Hi,
do you mean permissions to access the database?

If this is the case then you need to add IUSR_YOURSERVERNAME to allowed users for your database and then set permissions to read/write/edit the database for this user.
