Embed ASP in HTML 2

[Chinyere]

Hi All,

I have a static html front page with ASP pages underneath. I have a login/logout field on the ASP pages but I am having difficulty embedding the same code across to my HTML page.

Is there a way to do this? I also need a way to read the login on the html page so that is a person logins from an ASP page, it will be translated across to the HTML page.

TIA

Chinyere

Any reason why you don't just change the HTML page into an ASP page?

I am under the assumption that a static HTML page would be more useful for indexing through search engines.

If this is not the case, please let me know and I would glady change it to ASP.

Thanks!

A search engine only sees the output HTML, not the source code, and doesn't care what the file extension is.

Thank you.

So is it not possible to have an ASP snippet on an HTML page?

The filetype is what tells the server how to process the file. If it's .HTML or .HTM the server will just send the page. If it's .ASP it will be processed and the reults of the process sent.

If you'd like any snippet of ASP to be executed, the file should have a .asp extension. So...no it is not possible to have an ASP snippet on an HTML page. As johnwm has suggested, simply change the file extension and you're in business.

Thanks to you both.

I will just change the file extension.
