Run asp in flash or html

[bounceboy]

I finally found the solution to make a hit counter! It turns out i can use asp to save to a text file (txt). one problem, My asp won't work in html! is there some way to run asp scripts in html?

well If nobody wants to answer to that my next choice is to run the script in flash. I don't want to use the asp to get the number of hits, i want to run the asp so it will make the hits go up.

I don't need to use asp to load the number of hits, i can just load the number from the text file. so no help with that please!

if nobody wants to help, tell me to make a hit counter without php or sql. BT USING FLASH of course (or just html)

1) ASP has to run in an ASP page
2) You need some sort of a server side scripting language to open and write to your text file
3) Flash will only load the number from your text file, so rather you use html or flash to 'display' your hits it doesn't change the fact that you still have to use ASP (or PHP, whichever your server supports)

Do any search on google for "ASP hit counter script" and you can find plenty of examples.

you obviously have got me wrong.

1. yeah well how do you do that? internet explorer and mozilla won't open them!
2. yeah, thats the asp file that does that.
3.yeah all i need is the number from the text file then i add it in with "you are visitor number: " and then the variable.

thats what i did. the asp has the scripts to write to a txt, and flash can load txts. but can flash make the asp file run and make another hit???

lol hope you get me now

Of course it won't open them locally, because ASP is a server side language-- you would have to install and host a ASP server on your computer locally.

As I understand, are you grab information from a ASP script and displaying them using Flash? You could better accomplish this simply using Flash and PHP. Flash and PHP get along very well together.

You know, you would be better off using one of the ten thousand different sites that offer a way to add a hit counter?
Making a hit counter using just plain HTML code is a impossibility.
