Application Environment
Active Server Pages - To benefit from a powerful range of Microsoft technologies,

scripting language that supports the dynamic creation of Web pages. Used
in conjunction with an ODBC datasource, ASP's provide one of the best
ways to create dynamic, database driven Web sites. ASP also has the flexibility
to use Javascript and Visual Basic script.
Publishing Method
FrontPage extensions - FrontPage is a user-friendly application used to
create, edit, manage and update a Web site. It provides a wide range of
design themes and manages basic Web site features such as hyperlinks,
search scripts, feedback forms, navigation and publishing. Click here

Database Applications
The Windows 2000 hosting environment supports a variety of database
applications such as:
| |
Open Database
Connectivity (ODBC)
An Open Database Connectivity datasource enables the use of SQL queries
to connect to a database file that has been uploaded to ProHosting's servers.
Querying a database via ODBC is easy. SQL statements can be embedded into
the Active Server Pages and the query is executed when a site visitor
requests the page. The query output is used to display the Web page. ProHosting
currently supports the following ODBC sources: Microsoft Access up to
2000, SQL up to 2000 and Excel.
SQL Server 2000
SQL Server 2000 is a perfect solution for creating powerful database-driven
Web sites. When compared to ODBC, SQL Server's basic features offer better
query performance, the flexibility to create and delete tables in an on-line
database, and the automatic repair and compression of database files.
The power of SQL Server for dynamic content generation lies within the
Active Server Pages scripting technology, which allows SQL queries to
be embedded within Web pages for execution on the server side, before
the HTML formatted results are returned to the client.
