Allowing Your Users to Sign Up for Your Site
Published 20 years ago
If you have a copy of the book Beginning
Dreamweaver MX, I am sure you are familiar with the project TheSoccerSite.
For those not familiar with the project, TheSoccerSite is a Web site where soccer
fans around the world go for up-to-date information about soccer events. In 7
Chapters, Server- and Client-Side programming, using ASP,
HTML, JavaScript and a Microsoft Access database were introduced. One of
the features of the site was a login mechanism to protect the admin section from
unauthenticated and unauthorized users.
However, with the current implementation of the login mechanism, you would have
to add new users to the database directly. To do this, you'd need to download
the database, add the user and then upload the database again. Fortunately, Dreamweaver
has a few handy Server Behaviors that make adding a new user to the database very easy.

New Article About Forcing the Save As Dialog in a Browser
Published 20 years ago
Yesterday I published a new article that answers a very frequently asked question: "How can I force the browser to present the Save As dialog, instead of having the file opened by the browser?" I published it in the ASP category of the Articles section, because it was a bit too long for a FAQ. You can find the article here.

Howto Force the Save As Dialog in the Browser
Published 20 years ago
Your Web browser is set up to handle all kinds of documents. For example,
when you open an .html page from a Web site,
the browser knows it should parse this file, and display its rendered contents
onscreen. The same is true for images; when you click on a link that directly
links to an image, the image will be displayed in the browser.
This default behavior may not always be what you want. In some scenario's,
it's useful to have the user download and save the file, instead of displaying
it in the browser. This is a common requirement for files like images,
Word documents, spread sheets and so on. This article will demonstrate
you how you can force the client browser to present the Save As dialog, so
your users can download the file and save it on their local hard disk.
