I would not suggest doing that. People will stop visiting your site if you do that without asking.

For IE5+, you can use the home-page behaviour:

<html xmlns:ie>
<head>
<style>
@media all {
   ie\:homePage {behavior:url(#default#homepage)}
}   
</style>

<script language='javascript' type='text/javascript'>
<--
function fnVerify(){
	sQueryHome = oHomePage.isHomePage(oHomeHref.value);
	alert(sQueryHome);
	event.returnValue = false;
}
function fnGo(){
	oHomePage.navigateHomePage();
	event.returnValue=false;
}
function fnSet(){
	oHomePage.setHomePage(oHomeHref.value);
	event.returnValue = false;
}
//->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<ie:homePage id='oHomePage' />
<input type='text' id='oHomeHref' value='http://www.codeproject.com' />
<input type='button' value='Verify' onclick='fnVerify();'>
<input type='button' value='Set' onclick="fnSet();'>
<input type='button' value='Navigate' onclick="fnGo();'>
</body>
</html>

[IE will still ask the user if they want to change their home page.]

You need to put a "Default.htm" file in your wwwroot folder. Once you do that, just type in 127.0.0.0 or http://localhost in IE, and you're all set.

When I press that "play" button to start the webserver it allways doing a timeout and don't start! Frown | :(

I've tried to fill in the localhost ip (127.0.0.0) in the IP addres field but it doing a timeout and it doesn't start!! Frown | :(

open a cmd prompt and type "net start w3svc" and find out what it says. (it will tell you if it started or not)

The localhost ip is 127.0.0.1 not 127.0.0.0.

It tells me that the World Wide Web Publishing could not start and it was a system error (err no. 1747)

Hm.. I don't have Frontpage Server Extension if this has to do with it?

Hello

I am new to scripting but I need to know if there is anyway to

1) Get a list of processes running in Windows 2000
2) Send a notification to mail/pager if the process goes down?

If anyone can give some sample code, that would be very helpful.

Thanks a lot

I can use the psapi.dll.
Here you can find a article with that function. But if you want you can build a atl dll for get the list of process using that api... (I did that) Wink | ;)

New to VBScript

I am new to VBScript and i have a problem in getting the application path to set the database path(like app.path)
Data Source=C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\DataBase\collection.mdb;
Persist Security Info=False"

Here instead of giving the whole path how can i get the path??? Confused | :confused:

Chris Rickard11-Jul-02 9:12

Server.MapPath(RelativePath) will give the absolute physical path of a relative path (relative to the current ASP page)

Thanks will it work with VBScript?
And will you suggest VBScript for databases???
Are there any disadvantages with VBScript

It will work if this is an ASP page. If you're trying this by running a .vbs file from your desktop it won't because you're using WSH.

Again if you're running Server-Side Web pages (I'm assuming this since this is the ASP, ASP.NET forum) VBScript is about the easiest way to go. If this is a desktop app you'll get better performance running full VB.

Of course if possible I'd recommend using .NET.

i have a doubt, i mean can i use VBscript(without ASP) for client side scripting keeping the database on the server

I mean can i access the database on the server from a client machine by VBScript alone on an HTML page
