Yep...in your example of a mouseover event on a control, .NET creates that javascript code for the browser. --- Eric Barro Senior Systems Analyst Advanced Field Services (208) 772-7060 http://www.afsweb.com -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of DWUTKA at marlow.com Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2004 4:29 PM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] VB.NET Alright, it's event driven. Which means you could do, for example, a mouse over event on a control. Not sure if you can or not, but I'm just using this as an example. For that event to occur, it has to occur on the client's machine. Therefore, something on the clients machine has to be watching for that event. It may process the event on the server, but something has to tell the server to process it, from the clients machine. ASP is server side, it's a disconnected server side, it gets a 'snapshot' from the user, and sends a 'snapshot' back. There is not a 'live' connection. For ASP.NET to do what it does, it either has to create a 'live' connection, OR it has to put client side scripting in place, to fire the server components. Does that make sense?

There is no "scripting code" that is exposed to the end user since all of that is encapsulated in the DLL that ASP.NET builds, compiles and calls everytime it runs the .NET app. ASP.NET handles all the client-side display issues using Javascript and the business logic (assuming you wrote it in VB.NET or C#) is compiled into a single DLL that the server runs to handle all the back end interaction. --- Eric Barro Senior Systems Analyst Advanced Field Services (208) 772-7060 http://www.afsweb.com -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of DWUTKA at marlow.com Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2004 2:35 PM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: RE: [AccessD] VB.NET That's good to hear! I'm still leary of 'OLDER' browsers. There are people in this world still using Windows 95 a, with IE 3.01. (And even older). Did you know it is impossible to upgrade the browser from that point, without a CD, or the cabs for a later IE? Microsoft's own website (including the windows update site) isn't supported in that browser. Still gives me the heebie jeebies. I'd have to check it out myself. What kind of security issues are you risking, though, if you are putting the scripting out on the other end to send stuff through. Just another thought to ponder.

In fact ASP.NET generates the appropriate javascript code for the client side when it renders the page. All the business logic is encapsulated in a DLL on the BIN folder in the web root. --- Eric Barro Senior Systems Analyst Advanced Field Services (208) 772-7060 http://www.afsweb.com --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
