 Topic: General ASP questions
Posted: 09 June 2004 at 2:20pm |
- Whats the pros and cons of using JScript over VBScript?
- Is it possible to run JScript applications with SQL Server database off a Mac OS 10 Server?
- Is it possible to edit the session data created by the server client side?
Thanks for any enlightenment.

- None really, opposite because most apps are made in VBScript
- Not off a Mac OS 10 server, no
- Nope

- Server side, more asp sites are vbscript. Client side web apps tend to use javascript more than vbscript/DHTML because of better Browser support.
- You can run JSP's off of a Mac OS10 server, but MSSQL Server runs under windows. IIRC, there is a MYSQL flavor available for Mac OS10.
- Kinda no, but maybe yes. You don't have direct access from the client to the server-side session object, but you can set/get cookies.

To point one, it kinda depends if you are talking about server side or client side.
Client side IE is the only browser that does VBScript well, JScript has more support in pretty much all the browsers.
Serverside it depends on the technology. JScript is easier to interchange, as more technologies support it, if you stick with ASP, there is not the huge of a difference, just in syntax of course.

Thanks,
What software would the Mac OS server need installed to run ASP JScript, and what MySQL database is supported by Mac OS 10 server?

JSP = Java Server Pages - like ASP in the respect that you can write intermingled JSP code, HTML, and Javascript.
