USING THE ISAPI INTERFACE FROM ASP

To connect to the ISAPI, it's easiest to use our connection include file:

<!-- #include virtual = "/ISAPI/ISAPIConnect.inc" -->

Each function has been organized as a call to ExecuteISAPI.

Use:
ExecuteISAPI(Class.Function(EnvDict,FormVars,...)) to connect to these components.

The ExecuteISAPI provides formdata and environment data handling required by the components. Refer to the ISAPI-CGI documentation for what form variables need to be present on the form.

Please be aware that the ISAPI does not process ASP commands (yet) so you need to submit forms to what normally would be your template and ISOLATE the return data as the template to the ISAPI.

An Example Scenario... Simple SendMail Application:

(Of course ADO and CDO are available for database store and email send but for example purposes we will use dbstore)

An Email form would submit the form variables (as required) to an .ASP page we will call "confirmation.asp".

Inside of confirmation.asp you would include the reference to the ISAPIConnect.Inc file and the request into the ISAPI. Thus...

<!-- #include virtual = "/ISAPI/ISAPIConnect.inc" -->
<% =ExecuteIsapi(Database.dbStore(EnvDict,FormData)) %>
