right now it makes sense. That's not a major problem. Several ways it can be done depending of course on what kind of data you wish to store.
I have a script (in ASP, haven't got around to .net as yet) here ASP tracking Script. This is set as it stands to be called as a subroutine from a local page.
However it is a simple conversion to have it on a page and use a XMLHTTP call to "POST" data to it from ASP or PHP server-side or javascript client-side and pass some parameters including a UserID for the calling site.

extreme-dm do similar with javascript so you are not breaking new ground BTW, and if you want to see what data they collect you'll find someone's tracker here. There is also one here that I came across a few months ago at 2enetWorx.

Ok, I'm working hard on a log for my site. I want to eather let people buy it or let them use it for free but the ASP will be on my server. So they just insert a line of code into their html page and it will regester a hit for their site on my server.

just explain exactly what you are trying to do.
Bearing in mind that ASP code can only run on the server that it is located.

I dont want output from the file. The file will run compleatly on the server and will not send anything back to the html page.

It depends on what you are actually trying to acheive by including the file. You can't execute functions from one site on another. All that can be included is the output from the script.

So what would be the best idea to solve the second case? The best idea i have is a IFRAME. But then people whould be like what is this??

chrishirst — Tue, 12 Apr 2005 11:59:58 +0000

correct, it won't work

So I cant just give someone this code. If they put it in their HTML it wont work.

It's an SSI directive Server Side Includes

for the second question, I'm not sure what you are asking for. But,
1/ you can't have .html files that include asp/asp.net code unless you change the application mappings on the server.
2/ You can't use includes to pull in code/data from a remote server with asp/asp.net.
3/ You can't execute code from html files (see 1)

For both cases? how is it server side? it looks html
