asp_web_howto thread: ASP as thin client


Message #1 by OTTAR@M... on Tue, 23 Jan 2001 09:26:20 +0100
I want to do the following:



1) Show a normal data entry form with possibillity to go prev.

/next/update/insert etc.



2) I would like to do some client side data verification (Javascript)



Anyone out there that has a good framework for 1) or 2) or both?



I want my page to be readable with Netscape, so no VB script. If possible

I'll also like to avoid Active X (to satisfy Unix and Mac users out there).



So I am aming for "pure" HTML + some simple Javascript (IE and Netscape

compatible) on the client side.



On server side I was thinking of running just ASP, but if I need anything

else as well thats OK.



Can this be done, or am I to naive?

This is all pretty standard stuff - any good ASP book should guide you

through this type of example.



And yes, it is possible to do all this using basic HTML and javascript,

without browser compatibilty issues.
