Depending on the configuration you need to do the following:
Assuming you are going to use Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 as your webserver. Be sure to read the details up in the manual of IIS 6 for windows 2003 or IIS 7 for windows 2008. This is just a basic outline of the steps involved.
Before you start you should do two things:
1. Have a static ip-address with a DNS entry attached under which the website can be accessed.
2. Have your windows server configured so that IIS is installed.
With all that setup perform the following steps to install the website for internet use.
1. Set up the windows user rights on the directory containing the site content so that the Network service user has read access.
2. Configure a new website on IIS with the dns name under which it will be reachable as the hostheader (Check docs for hostheaders in IIS for more info on how to set this up).
3. Point the home directory of the new website to the directory where to content of the website is placed on the harddrive
4. Configure anonymous access for the website so that users can view the pages on the webserver.
5. Configure additional security options like windows logon if you are using any authentication and authorization mechanisms.
Now you're all set to serve up the website.
Did I mention that this is only a global description of what should be done? Well, it is  and there might be some variations, so again: Do check the manual of IIS for the exact details.

Thanks WM.
My last attempt brought the website down. After I was done having a heart attack, I got it up and running again.
I'll give this a try.

hey im trying to make an app that will log in to facebook ,
im using the following method to establish connection and post my credentials:
public static void start_post(string strPage, string strBuffer)
{
//Our postvars
byte[] buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(strBuffer);
//Initialisation
HttpWebRequest WebReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(strPage);
//Our method is post, otherwise the buffer (postvars) would be useless
WebReq.Method = "POST";
//We use form contentType, for the postvars.
WebReq.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
//The length of the buffer (postvars) is used as contentlength.
WebReq.ContentLength = buffer.Length;
//We open a stream for writing the postvars
WebReq.Referer = "http://www.facebook.com/index.php?";
Stream PostData = WebReq.GetRequestStream();
//Now we write, and afterwards, we close. Closing is always important!
PostData.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
PostData.Close();
//Get the response handle, we have no true response yet!
HttpWebResponse WebResp = (HttpWebResponse)WebReq.GetResponse();
//Let's show some information about the response
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.StatusCode);
Console.WriteLine(WebResp.Server);
//Now, we read the response (the string), and output it.
Stream Answer = WebResp.GetResponseStream();
StreamReader _Answer = new StreamReader(Answer);
reply = _Answer.ReadToEnd();
Console.WriteLine(reply);
}

Hi there.
Not sure if this is correct messageboard, so sorry if it's isn't.
I have recently started using INtrexx Extreme at work to create portals and applications. While designing these there is a button to view your work in a browser.
When i do this, i get a browser which just says 'Service Unavailable'.
If I go into IIS and browse the website, it brings the same thing up.
I found a thread online that say's if you go into the properties of the 'My Websites' folder and check the box 'Run WWW service in IIS 5.0 isolation mode'. When I do this it solves the 'Service Unavailable' problem (although a cross appears next to the 'My Websites' folder) but when i try to view the default site again it just brings up the page cannot be displayed message.
My internet connection is working, just incase anyone thought of that.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I developed a sample web site which prints current system date time. After publishing the web site I created a virtual directory name and mapped the published folder.
When i try to access the website from browser as http://localhost/test/default.aspx[^] ,it returning me a error as Your are not authorised to view this page.
This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that Internet Explorer was able to connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage.
But when i do the same process in another system it works fine.
I modified the Directory security setting by enabling the Anonymous access.... still i am getting the same error.
I check my user account details it has rights to access the IIS.
Please suggest me to over come this problem
Thanks in advance

Check the following:
1. Is anonymous access enabled for the virtual directory (Check the directory security settings in IIS for this)
2. Check that the network service account has access to the physical directory (ASPNET account under Windows XP)
3. Check the security settings in your web.config, is there a line in <authorization> saying <deny users="?"/>
This should help overcome your HTTP 403 error.

I have no idea what you're asking, but I think it's an ASP.NET question.

Are you looking at the 'FormsAuthentication', which puts a returnURL querystring to the logon page?

i want to chage the value of cell with out refreshing the page via ajax.
any one knows plz help me asap.

Well, first of all, a datagrid means you should ask in the ASP.NET forum.
In what circumstances do you want to change the value ? What do you expect to trigger the AJAX call ? The server cannot send data via AJAX, that is, the trigger cannot be on the server, the client has to ask for it.

Hi all,
I have an asp.net application which generates a set of reports using reportviewer and rdlc files..
The problem is that on a few of the laptops the page covers up only half of the entire screen..
Secondly, the reportviewer controls are getting overlapped..
Has anyone come across such probs and can help me out..
How could i debug or search the reasons for such a problem??
Thanks in advance

There is nothing to debug, the resolution on your notebook is smaller than the resolution you wrote the page at. You need to redesign it to work on a smaller page, or accept that it doesn't work well on that small a resolution.

Thanks christian for replying..
Actually this problem occurs only on some laptops..
And its the bigger laptop screen that causes the problem..
Is there anything you might know that can be set/reset that makes it to take the actual resolution of the screen or something..
or probably a field or function that cares of the resolution setting for a webpage??

You can use css to float the image and position it.

There's actually nothing you can do in a web page that will affect the resolution of the screen on a client machine.
So stop worrying.

Hi All.
I am messing about with a game called EVE-Online where i would like to gather som data from an XML feed.
I am working in classic ASP, (yeah yeah ASP.net can do all this for me but i neither have the skills nor the time to convert the rest of my prog to asp.net..  )
The XML i need to gather data from is here http://www.elefantnet.dk/xml/eve.xml[^]
Also some other XML's will come in handy over time but right now this is it.
Anyway i can't get my head around this stuff... Usually i like to build my apps so they are more or less "generic"...
What i would really like is to write a parser that is not hardcoded to "decipher" the XML, but more like would find out what the XML offers.
I am trying something like this:
Retrieve the XML and load it as XMLDomDoc
Function showFeed(url,userxID,fullApixKey)
Dim webServiceUrl, httpReq, node, myXmlDoc
userid = "12345"
charID = "123456987"
fullapikey="thisisasecret"
webServiceUrl = url & "?userID=" & userid & "&ApiKey=" & fullapikey & "&characterID=" & charID
response.write(webserviceurl & "<br>")
Set httpReq = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
httpReq.Open "POST", webServiceUrl, false
httpReq.Send
Set myXmlDoc =Server.CreateObject("MSXML.DOMDocument")
if myXmlDoc.load(httpReq.responseBody) then
<big>displaynode myxmldoc.ChildNodes, 0 '**** This function should handle iteration through all the nodes ...</big>
else
response.write("horse! Content not very nice!")
end if
Set httpReq = Nothing
End Function
After this i get stuck, right now the most important issue for me is to go through the Rowset in the bottom of the doc, and update my local database with this content ...
I know this might be a biggie, and that maybe the answer from all would be ASP.net but ... Plz let me know if you have any way of helping me out here.

I've been trying to do the same thing (also in "classic ASP"). Ever figure it out? I'm going to keep working on it and will let you know if I come up with a solution.
