Book Description
Writing server applications for the Internet just became easier! This is a unique cookbook for writing CGI applications, and for helping Visual Basic 5 developers port their existing applications onto the Web. It's rich with "recipes" for such high-demand items as virtual cookies, a shopping cart application, active server pages, and a generic search engine. Advanced techniques such as Java Script, ActiveX documents, and security are covered. The only resource to date that treats the hugely popular VB5 as a full-fledged development tool for web-server applications, this book provides a complete CGI library to support its real-world approach.
