[Dude]

'Mebbe I'm tryin'/wantin' to do sumthin' that jus' can't be done, butt...
Anyone know 'o a way that I'd be able to incorparte thing's I write in V.B. into/onto a web page?

A lot of e-commerce businesses use V.B. for their sites. Its usually on the back-end management of things...its not usually seen by the 'public'. What you got in mind.

That's jus' it, not really sure, was kinda leanin' toward's sumthin' along the line's 'o puttin' a small .exe in or sumthin' like that for entertainment/look's type thing.
Like I said, I'm prob lookin' in the wrong direction or sumthin', but I write sum weird **** in V.B. an jus' thought it might be a groovy little addition to a page or two.

I don't think VB is used for designing or implementing stuff onto web sites...but I could be wrong...I just never heard of it before. Anything is possible if using the right stuff. VB might be hard to actually use on a site...there might be something else out there that would make it alot easier.

[Dude]

Kinda the way I was seein' it, as I've ne'er seen it either, thought it couldn't hurt to try an find out though.
Thank's for the input.

Since V.B. is a Windows/PC language and Powweb's web servers run on freeBSD unix, I don't think that there is anyway to run V.B. for your web site. I suppose you could use V.B. to generate some graphics files or some automatically generated html and then send those files to your web site, but you could not use V.B. for writing cgi scripts for a Powweb server. You might be able to do that if you found a site that runs NT/2000/whatever Windows for their web server, but who'd want to be subject to that kind of risk? Why not go with a stable platform instead of a worm magnet.
