repeating dialog box problem - "Do you want to open or save this f

I have installed iis 7 on my win vista home premium Sony Vaio laptop, and
then tried executing downloaded sample working asp scripts in the wwwroot
directory to try out.

The first asp script opened fine. When I tried to click the link from the
first asp script calling a second asp script, it just goes into a repeating
dialog box, asking "Do you want to open or save this file", but without
opening or executing the script, even though I kept clicking on "OPEN".

Usually means you haven't set the web server up to run asp or .net (aspx)
as scripts. You have to check that there is a listed association between
the file extension and asp/.net

Thank you for the info. Could you enlighten how to go about that?

This is based on XP - if IIS7 has moved bits around it may not be as
helpful as it should.

Open ISM
expand default web site
right clikc to open properties
home directory
application
configure
make sure there are entries for asp, aspx etc
If you've parked other files in subfolders, make sure these are marked
with execute rights for scripts.

Hi, I've built a client side webpage for our internal users, which when loaded, generates some HTML within an iFrame. The HTML generated to the iFrame is then saved as HTML. I know it's useless to disable the Save As command, but can I at least intercept when they select this from the menu and display a message? Thanks

Hi. I have a modal dialog whcih has a "Browse..." button which pops up a file selector. This all works fine, but the first thing the user has to do when they open the dialog is select a file, so I would like the dialog to automatically call the onBrowse function as soon as the dialog opens. However, I don't know how to do this. dlg.ShowModal() onBrowse() obviously doesn't work, and neither does the reverse. I was hoping

Hi all, I've got a vb.net web application that is using a web service to stream documents from a repository. Once the service feeds me the document I'l downloading it using the browser response functions. If I choose to Save it works every time. If I choose to open the file I get an error saying the file cannot be found, create a new file? The save does occassionally work, every other attempt at best. Any ideas would be appreciated!

Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
