Gosh. I guess the mission-critical ASP sites I've been running on the same server as CF for years don't work then. Good thing I found out. ;-)
Seriously, when properly configured, IIS will call the ASP engine just as it calls the CF engine at the appropriate time. In fact, a single site can have both technologies deployed on it, intermixing pages from both. It isn't pretty, but it will work. --Ben On 10/26/2011 3:03 PM, Nathan Chen wrote: > Dave, > > Thank you.
