Have been working with DHTML and have a Dsn conneciton to a database located on the same machine. The web page works fine and will run the querys from the server only. As soon as I open the web page from a client machine it will come up with an error message of can't find ODBC drivers.
To test I put the ODBC connection on client machine and it works fine.
It seems to be a case of the server not sharing the ODBC with the client. The ODBC was created in System DSN and it was in my belief that all client requests would be processed by the server.
Anyone know how I can share the ODBC connection from the server and not have to configure every desktop machine that connects to the web site?
