I took a look at xBscript intro pages (didn't know about it) but it
seems to be a completely different product: I tried the samples but
they seems to run on my browser, not on server. And it also tried to
install some Active-x control.
>>>
xbScript does run properly on IIS. Because it is a standard MS
ActiveScript
engine, the configuration is standard as any other true ASP script engine.
FWIW all IIS script engines are ActiveX controls.
<<<
Anyway I have no idea how to set up a IIS server (I have very limited
knowledge about web stuff) and what I liked of DBFree is that came
already preconfigured and ready to run. Just created the tables and
added some (simple) code.
>>>
Well you do need to setup for command processor, file extensions, etc. As
per above, xbScript is an MS ActiveScript compliant script engine, and so
configuration is standard, and should be trivial for any IIS admin.
<<<
I started to study some of the samples but xHarbour seems a very
complex and feature-rich product: I'm not shure I can handle it.
After all I simply wanted was to build a trivial web application to
handle sup****t request from my customers, something for internal use,
not to market as a professional product.
I took a look at the xBscript CGI snippet sample and I barely
understood a third of the code, or better - I do recognize the sintax
but I don't understand the logic...
>>>
As explained above xbScript is a fully compliant MS ScriptEngine, using
teh
exact samle Clipper syntax we all know and love. Any logic you did not
understand must be related to standard featue[s] of the ASP foundation,
and
or IE hosting environment. You must learn ASP regardless of the scriptng
language you prefer using.
<<<
Well, after all I'm over 50 - this world start to look little more
complicated to me.
