Hi

I was just wondering of there was any big advantage of using "Response.Write" over HTML + ASP tags in between. I am asking this because the second route makes code modifications easier for me

Sorry if this sounds a obvious question to you all, but I am more of a PHP developer now days than a ASP one.

With regards

Amitabh

Also, can someone point out the last version which didn't had not been converted totally into Response.Write. I know there would be some bugs in the code, but it would give me a better idea on changing the code.

You should use the Search feature, selecting the archive option. That issue has been thoroughly discussed before.

The last "non Response.Write" version was 3.3.x.

Thanks ruirib . I did try searching the forums, but it seems I was using the wrong keywords. I will try it again. If you can point me to the correct direction, it would be great.

Performance is the main reason.

ok, I got it. Coming back to ASP after a rather long stint in PHP makes me confused on seeing all the Response.Write . Thanks for all the info.

Thanks rurib. I have been working on making some changes to the code. Since I have been coding in PHP for quite some time now, I was little taken back with all the Response.Write. Took some time getting used to it.

Anyway, I am converting the whole code back to HTML + ASP (hope that it does not break anything out here). To be more specific, these are the intial things that I am trying to do:

1) Changed Response.Write's to HTML + ASP style. There might be performance

hit, but it gives me more control over the layout of the forums.

2) Using CSS instead of the inline specifications on the pages at several

places.

3) Modifications are only being done on user pages, not on the admin pages

as of now.

== > 4) Planning to use Stored Procedures and views in SQL 2000. The only

problem being that it will break up other database support.

==> 5) Planning to use Category Open and close buttons, which will open and

close category through Javascript. The only problem is storing the same in

cookies so that is gets reflected in the subsequent pages. This should be same as what you find in vBulletin or IPB.

==> 6) Planning to move the forum path listing to a single line.

==> 7) Planning to create a few setup scripts that can guide newbies during the installation process.

I am just brishing up my ASP, and would be doing this in my spare time. CSS is my first priority at the moment.

There is a version that already uses CSS. Probably you can use it as a starting point:

amitabh, the Dev Discussions forum probably is not the forum to give info on your project and, eventually, ask for help with it. I would suggest a new thread in the Mod W/O Code forum.

ok rurib. I will start a thread in "Mod W/O Code" once I am able to complete the first 2-3 points.
