I had a look at your site and the error I got for the forum suggests that you have left out the " when editing the path and db name:-

eg:-

strDatabase = "jhkjhkjh/jhgjhg.mdb"

Hey.. It seems as you are linking directly to your database file... You should insted link til www.yoursite.com/forum/default.asp .. Or whereever you put your forum.

Another problem might be, that your server or webspace doesn't support ASP (Active Server Pages). Please check, if your server or webspace supports it. You might even wanna check if the server has support for Access Databases..

ASP stands for Active Server Pages, no web server no active pages.

So unless you are running Microsoft IIS, ASP enabled web server on your own computer then no, it won't run on your own computer.

This is why your browser is trying to download the pages, without an ASP enabled web server the page is not processed and therefore your browser will see it as a file and try to download it.

After looking at your site I found two problems,

1 As mentioned above your link to the forums links directly to the database.

2 When going to the correct forum url http://1stid.recongamer.com/forum/ it gives an error suggesting that the path to your database is incorrect.
