Local computer used as server supporting ASP

[John Mailman]

I receive the following error when I try to preview index.asp in a browser. I am not planning to publish to an external server, just my computer screen

"The Database Results component on this page is unable to display database content. The page must have a filename ending in '.asp', and the web must be hosted on a server that supports Active Server Pages.

I am running Windows XP and have FP 2002 Server Extensions installed. The website is in the C:\Inetpub\wwwroot directory.

You need to always open and work in your local web at http://localhost via FP, then you can use File
Menu | Preview in browser or directly access the page via http://localhost/pagename.asp
