showing image on the internet

[Tim]

Hi,
I need help to show the images and the wav files on the internet. Also, do
you think I should convert the wav files to MP3 for delivery faster on the
internet? I think I would save those files on the web server, save the their
locations to the db's tablesand declare recordset(s) to loop to show those
files on the webpage. Do you have ASP/HTML codes that help me to do that?
Thank you in advance for your help.

What did you programme till now on your quest?

Hi Evertjan,
I haven't done anything yet. I am just trying to find a solution (by coding)
for how to display images and wav files on the internet. But as a newbie, I
don't know how to use ASP/HTML to display them, i.e., using a loop. I know vb
but not HTML. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Using HTML and serverside ASP code and clientside coding is a learning
process. I think your quest is to high for you. Firest try simpler tasks
for a year or two. Knowing VB is a pre, but unterstanding the interactions
of the above is something else.

ASP is a technology that generates HTML to be sent to the client. So your
first step is to understand how to use HTML to display an image on the
client (hint: use an IMG tag). Create an HTML page that displays hard-coded
images.

Once you see what the result is supposed to look like in a static html page,
the next step is to create an asp page whose server-side code generates that
html. Remember, html is just a string with various keywords (tags) that
instruct the browser to do something. So you will be doing a lot of
string-handling, with which you should be very familiar from your VB
experience. vbscript is similar to VB, but there are differences. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/script56/html/vsgrpNonFeatures.asp
and
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/script56/html/vsgrpVBSFeatures.asp.
The entire scripting documentation can be downloaded from

There used to be many sites that can help you understand the server-side,
client-side paradigm involved with internet development, including
www.aspfaq.com
www.asp101.com
www.4guysfrom rola.com
www.learnasp.com

Unfortunately, the latter 3 sites have shifted their focus to the new
ASP.Net technology. It is gtting harder fingclsi sp informatin out there.
At this point in your career,you might want to consider learning ASP.Net
instead of diving into classic ASP (to which this newsgroup is devoted). If
you take that path, you will get more help at
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.

Wow, it looks like my keyboard chose that moment to screw me up. Combined
with my failure to proofread before clicking the Send button ...

This should read:
.... It is getting harder to find classic asp information ...

Wow, thank you, Bob for your valuable information. Unfortunately, right now
the resource I have is just for ASP. I have to think about ASP.Net.
Thanks, Evertjan because you show me where I stand now. It would take me
longer than I guess to learn these stuff.

But do not despare, Tim, because the road is as rewarding as getting there.
And help is available on usenet on the way, as long as the helping is not
doing the job for you.

Getting a reasonable knowledge of HTML hypertext is the starting point.
ASP help thereafter in this HG.

has zero experiece

I sort of agree with these guys

I surmize you are sure, Kyle, but I was not talking ASP.net, but ASP.
