How to store output of an ASP page on server...

[mavrick_101]

The result of my asp page will not change for a week. So instead of querying
the database every time a user visits this page, an HTML page is sent to the
browser.

How can I accomplish this?

Thanks.

Do a SAVE AS in your browser of the snap shot you want to capture....
Change the link to point to that page or have your ASP page forward the
person to that page.

How do you KNOW the results won't change? I wouldn't do what you want
to do, however.

either use a static page, as was mentioned, or look up Caching, and set it
to be cached by the client....

You could have an ASP page that determines if a page exists for the new
week.

If it doesn't then generate a new week's page.

If it does then just Response.Redirect to it.

Pseudo-code:

sYEAR = DatePart("yyyy",Date())
sWEEK = DatePart("ww",Date())
sFILE = "page" & sYEAR & sWEEK & ".htm"
Set FSO
If Not FSO.FileExists(sFILE) Then
' generate sFILE
End If
Response.Redirect sFILE
