Re: [newbie] Good word for Mozilla .8
ASP is MS technology (as Micheal wrote below) - similar in idea to PHP, Coldfusion etc. It's basically server side scripting (ie all the code is executed on the server and the output - usually straight HTML but can also include all the other things you find on web pages - is delivered to the browser) and should be viewable across all browsers/platforms if properly used [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/12 4:18 pm .ActiveServerPages ( i think) is proprietary microsnot technology designed to hide scripts and zoomy stuff so you have to pay for it.

Re: [newbie] Good word for Mozilla .8
ASP is a script format for web pages, not unlike PHP. The main problem with ASP is that it is a Microsoft format. I will not even pretend that I am an expert on the topic, but I suspect that this M$ format breaks W3C standards in some way. If not, then those who use this format would be less likely to comply to standards since they are writing on a Windos system with Windos users as a primary audience (since most users use IE).

When I tried to install them in LM7.2 I got the error message: "for a different architecture." That was that. I finally found a version of Mozilla .8 with a Preferences box that works. In all the other versions I tried (and I think I'd tried them all), when clicking on OK in the Preferences box (on any item), would cause Mozilla to crash. This problem did not exist in Mozilla .7 but it does exist in most Mozilla .8 versions. Well, I went back to Mozilla's home page (www.mozilla.org) and downloaded the latest nightly build (20011105) for Linux. This time, the bug seems to have been fixed. The Preferences configuration went off perfectly. Now, my own feelings as a USER about Mozilla are very mixed: I am very pleased with its feature richness, reliability, stability, etc. However, I find much of it aesthetically, i.e. (interface design) to be plain, unimaginative and, in the case of the mail client, downright ugly. If you compare the interface in Mozilla to that in KDE, Gnome or WindowMaker, you have the strange feeling that Mozilla belongs, aesthetically speaking, to some antediluvian, DOS or even pre-DOS (if that is possible) generation. Let's hope that after Mozilla is completed, the Mozilla folks will completely redesign the Mozilla interface. Now, for the good word I promised in my subject header: I tried a page that was mentioned earlier by someone else. The URL is: http://www.pcquest.com/june00/linux_spam.asp Netscape 4.76, the latest Konqueror (in KDE 2.1) and Opera all rendered it wrongly or as a real mess. But Mozilla .8 renders this .asp format SUPERBLY, at least on this page. Really astonished. What, by the way, is this .asp format that eludes Konqueror and Opera? Whatever it is, Mozilla does a great job at rendering it. Yours, Benjamin -- Sridhar Dhanapalan. "There are two major products that come from Berkeley: LSD and UNIX.
