1. you should protect your /includes/ folder to keep someone from guessing file names and reading them. There's usually nothing to hide, but it's a good practice incase your includes have some logic that you don't want to expose. 2. the includes are processed on the server side, replacing the @inc

Anything that the web server sends to the user agent is available. But what is done with the info is up to the user agent. For example, you can disable JavaScript or images in your browser, and of couse some info will not be visible to you. Likewise, it depends on the search engine as to how t

It depends on the complexity of the Access setup. The Upsize Wizard does a pretty good job on tables/fields, but not always perfect. If they have any code (macros, modules, field/form specific checks, calculations, etc.) it will be lost. On the other hand, a lot of that could probably be done

Witango-Talk: Nasty server hang problem

We are running Witango Server 5.0.1.65 on a windows 2000 server. Lately we've been having some problems with our ntbackup routine, either bad tape blocks or full media. But what is more disturbing is that the witango server seems to hang when this ntbackup error occurs, and the server must be reb

Hi Dan, Converting an Access database to SQL Server is the easy part (can't speak for MySQL :-P). The time consuming part will be the ASP code. Obviously the database connection strings will be different, then the ADO Recordsets in ASP. Their behavior may change with the upgrade. Some SQL sta

I don't think that anyone has answered the real question yet. I think that the question is how much ASP reprogramming would be needed? There's not that much for Witango. I don't know ASP, so I can't answer the question. Stefan At 11:41 AM 6/24/2004, you wrote: Move the SQL 2000 shouldn't kill anyon

Move the SQL 2000 shouldn't kill anyone. It would be a conversion/import of the DB, a huge find & replace task, then a decent test phase. In perspective, I could transfer a large Witango site in about a day, unless there were a large number of "Access workarounds" which needed to be rewritten in S

I don't know about Access, but the FMP databases that I started with looked like something simple to move to mysql, but on closer inspection, I'd used a lot of FMP-specific functionality. Calculated fields, portals, etc. It ended up being easier to start from scratch in mysql and have all the l
