Hey gang.
Is there a way, to automatically save a page that is db driven, as a page
that contains html?
i would like a page like http://tournamentsbyeck.com/past_standings3.asp
to be converted to the html values. i want to do this, so the db doesn't
grow too large.
Is this possible?
If so, can someone point me in the right direction to get started please??
Thanks

you can use MSWC.tools
Set oTools = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.Tools" )
oTools.processForm "output.html", "template.asp http://aspalliance.com/176_Fast_Form_Processing

I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do. ASP pages are rendered
in HTML in the browser. View source, and you will see HTML, not ASP.
Do you want to write directly to a file? You could you the
filesystemobject to do that, create a file, myfile.html, write the HTML,
HEAD and BODY elements, write from the db, then end the BODY, HEAD and
HTML elements.

Yes, that is what I am needing. Maybe I didn't explain as Jon stated.
What I want to do, is convert those bracket results retrieved from the DB to
html, then save the page as html in the web folder. I would have more pages
there, but would be less space taken up by the db.
I realize that the view sorce gives me excatly that, but what I need us to
use, as you are saying, the filesystemobject and create the page as the
tournament is being closed (after completion).
is there a page out there that shows me how to do this:
write the HTML,
HEAD and BODY elements, write from the db
or am i not looking clearly at this..

I'm thinking you are wasting your time here. What kind of database do
you have where you need to worry about how big it gets? And why aren't
you having the same concern about the disk space you are proposing to
waste? And why are you worrying about saving all that html when it can
easily be generated again using data from the database?
Jon's examples show you how to do this without using fso. If you are
determined to use fso, there are plenty of examples at www.aspfaq.com.
Basically, you write to a textstream object instead of to Response.

it is mssql, and the size isn't "that" big of an issue, i was just trying
to keep it tidy. I have 4gb of mssql space.
And why aren't
you having the same concern about the disk space you are proposing to
waste?

i am not worried, because I have 50gb of storage to use. with html pages,
it would take quite sometime before i would have to worry about space.
And why are you worrying about saving all that html when it can
easily be generated again using data from the database?

I wanted to do this, because I would think that it would be neater, meaning
tidier, to do it this way, then to keep everything in the db. space really
isn't an issue in either the web itself, or in the db.
also, this would help me learn more about filesystem, or anything else that
would let me do that.
i understand that it may not be the best way to do it, but that doesn't mean
i don't want to learn how, and then learn which is the best way and why.
thanks for your reply Bob, I do respect your thoughts and ideas. :)
