I'm trying to set up a solution, but there's like nothing behind the pages. I have it all linked to my database and everything. If I try to log in, I get a 404 and the url turns to "http://internal.loweredvisions.net/%7BAction%7D"
http://internal.loweredvisions.net is the base url.... can somone help me?
Thanks.
Tom.

This is because your server is setup to open http://internal.loweredvisions.net/login.html , while you need to open http://internal.loweredvisions.net/login.asp for example.
I also see that http://internal.loweredvisions.net/login.asp doesn't work because some files are missing - so you may need to publish the whole application first, or remove "publish/" from your Server Path confirguration in CCS.

 Awesome, that seemed to work. My plans are to build a client managment and invoicing system including inventory managment... is that goign to be hard to implement? What would be better to use? ASP or PHP? Thanks again!
Tom.

Not for some, but no one can answer such question regarding yourself. You probably won't know until you try 
PHP

Dude,
If you're using IIS and Windows, you'd probably be better off using MSaccess DB and ASP if this is your main platform and your developing things internally for your organization, But I've used PHP/MySQL on both platforms, the good thing being that you have more portability with PHP.
But as Peter says, it really depends on your needs. A access DB and ASP is fine on a Windows only platform until you start talking thousands of records with large numbers of simultaneous connections, if so, you'd need to move up to MS SQL at least. But, if you develop using PHP/MySQL from the beginning, you don't have to worry.
Not pushing PHP/MySQL, but out of the choices CCS gives you, it certainly is the easiest to learn, develop in and implement. dotNET/Java are certainly the best option if your talking enterprise level applications, I hate ColdFusion and its proprietary platform, so I can't make a realistic/fair judgement on that.

Hi Iowanoma
If you do go the IIS direction - don't use MS-Access. Its a nice development product but when you try and scale up to the number of users you will start to find problems.
We use ASP and MySQL and have had no troubles re scalability. I know that MS is looking at making MS-SQL more available to web developers but the licensing is often so very confusing.
If you do need to have MS-Access applications then you can link to the MySQL databases using ODBC very easily. And share the data that way
With MySQL - its basically free if used on the web side and its a VERY developed and robust product. I cannot recommend it more highly.
As for the development language - its much of a muchness there. The main thing you need to consider is your server platform..
With IIS - ASP or ASP.NET is better as they are both native to that system. ASP.NET is more complex but it does have some very distinct advantages with developing very large systems.
ASP is a scripting language which means that each line of code is interpreted. This can slow things down in a large system.
ASP.NET compiles its code into machine language which gives a considerable boost.. And you also have the backing of all of the dotNET developement languages to implement all of the complex business rules etc.
If your platform is Unix/Apache then look at PHP as that language has a long history of success there. As I tend to work mainly on IIS I'll leave this for someone else to give the pro's and cons.
As for my background - I was doing web development even before Denali came to the scene (Denali was pre ASP) and I even remember doing assembler in 4k or RAM and that was HUGE for the machine!!!!!!
Hope this helps you make a decision.
Take Care
Dave
p.s. post 230!!!! and still going.
