Visual Web Developer / VB / asp

Hi,

I have been trying out the beta version of Visual Web Developer. I have written a very simple test page of code using Visual Basic which works fine when run within VWD.

I have now uploaded it to my Abyss web server where I have installed (Selisoft) ahtml according, as far as I can see and double-check, to the installation instructions.

When I view the .asp page I have written, I get the following error:

*************
Active Server Pages- Error 'ASP 0129'

Unknown scripting language

/test1.asp, line 1

The scripting language 'VB' is not found on the server. 500: 0
**************

Looking at the .asp code from VWD, it begins:

**************
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<script runat="server">

Protected Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

...mroe code follows...
***************

Does (Selisoft) ahtml not support VB code in .asp pages or is there something I am, perhaps, missing?

Any help and advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Peter

PeterReed,

ActiveHTML support VB and JScript in ASP pages it processes (and even other languages provided that their scripting component is correctly setup in Windows).

Try (re)installing the VBScript scripting component as explained in the FAQ in http://www.selisoft.com/en/ahtml/asp.phtml .
