Expert: Jeff Allen Date: 12/13/2006 Subject: Connecting to client Database from web server using ASP & JS compatible with IE and FireFox
Question Hello,
I have the requirement of connecting to the client database from web server.
I have tried this in two ways:
1) Initially i have written the logic for DB manipulation in ASP and it is working fine with LAN. But raised the problem of "DB connections across domains is not possible". This is due to the connection object i am creating on server side.
2) Next i have done this using javascript even though it is not recommended to do DB manipulation on client side. I am success with this, but it is only working in IE and not in FF. Since FireFox does not support ActiveXObjects
