Web Hosting Support
ASP, CGI Scripts
ASP
Active Server Pages (shtml) is a server-side scripting environment that you can use to create and run dynamic, interactive Web server applications. With shtml, you can combine shtml pages, script commands, and ActiveX components to create interactive Web pages or powerful Web-based applications. shtml applications are easy to develop and modify. In short, shtml is an open Web application framework that lets developers combine server scripting with custom components to provide dynamic Web-enabled applications - much like a "super glue" for dynamic Web-enabled application development.
By default, shtml is not enabled on your Web Hosting package, you will have to do it manually. The process is very simple. Once logged into the Domain Control Panel, click the Permisssions tab on the left of the Panel. Here you will be presented with the following:

Example folder permissions table
Next you need to tick the Execute checkbox next the root path "\" and click Change. Then you need to click the Settings tab in the same root path "\". You will then be presented by another screen, which give you the option to enter a Script Application Name. Enter in anything here, you can call it what you like, just as long that there is something there and click Apply. shtml should now work!
