Can anyone help - "Recommend to a friend" e-mail link

Can anyone help me with this? I had a look through and couldn't see any existing threads on the subject......

I have a website for my small business which I made in FrontPage, and is hosted by a web hosting company and it works very well.:j

I would like to put one of those "Recommend this site to a friend" links on it. I have found advice on how to build the form which seems quite straightforward, but it refers to running on a server with ASP and using CDOMail. (they might as well be talking to me in Chinese!):confused:

Does anyone know if web hosters normally run servers with this stuff?

Can I just try it and see what happens without messing everything up??!

Any advice would be appreciated!

  • Most web servers (on Windows and Linux) support ASP. To see if yours does, upload the following code as test.asp and open it in your browser.
    <html>
    <%
    response.write "SERVER_SOFTWARE = " + request.ServerVariables("SERVER_SOFTWARE") + "<br>"
    response.write "ASP_OS = " + request.ServerVariables("ASP_OS") + "<br>"
    response.write "ASP_VERSION = " + request.ServerVariables("ASP_VERSION") + "<br>"
    %>
    </html>
    
    You can try it without messing up your existing site. Just upload some test pages using .asp extension instead of .htm, .html etc.
