This is a really good basic example of file writting and passing form arguments to itself, However Ive noticed a bug.. You have bSave always set to false and there for the form is allways appearent upon the page when I think that the concept was to have it removed when viewing entries.

It works!  So few do, but this one does.  Easily modifiable and understandable.

An interesting scripty

I think that before displaying the text file, we should verify if it is empty. Or an error will be generated.

No se como hacer funcionar una página en ASP. Siempre he trabajado con .CGI.

Me gustaria saber más acerca de las Active Server Pages, pero =( desafortunadamente no hay ninguna información en Español.

Lamento que no escriba en Ingles.

I too am just starting to look at ASP for the first time and this seems like an excellent choice as an example to start experimenting with. 

I am very interested in Scott's comment above that he is not sure if Unix ASP supports File System Objects.  I don't have any trouble using FSO objects using Microsoft FrontPage on my home computer but as soon as I upload the same files to our website I am getting errors.  If anyone has the answer to that question, I would be most appreciative.  I can't seem to get a straightforward answer yet from our Internet Provider and if Scott isn't sure, maybe it's a complicated matter.  Thanks.

Okay, I actually got it to work now. It wouldn't work without at least one entry. I removed that last snippet, made an entry, then reinserted it and it works fine.

The first thing is there is a small typo in your script. The last line should be objLogFile.close() instead of objLogFIle.close()

Also, I keep getting an error saying:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a003e'
Input past end of file
/guestbook.asp, line 68

This is line 68:
response.write(objLogFile.readAll)

Any help would be appreciated!

I am not sure if unix ASP supports the file system objects. Also, make sure you name the ASP guestbook.asp or modify the action field in the form.

I tried this on a UNIX (aix) web server that was asp enabled and kept getting 500 errors, but then again, asp

is something I'm very new at
