http://www.connectionstrings.com/
http://www.haneng.com/
http://www.w3schools.com/
http://asp.programmershelp.co.uk/vbsvartypecon.php
http://www.devguru.com/Technologies.../functions.html
http://www.sloppycode.net/
http://webmonkey.wired.com/webmonkey/
http://www.jellspace.net/javascript...nthandlers.html



Other links are welcome.

regards,

Leuvenaar

www.powerasp.com
forums.aspfree.com

excellent idea leuvenaar...how about consdering developing a small database to organize these links(using keyword search..for example - [vbs functions] and add a "title" to each link..because not all are self-explanatory links..they are blind and may frustrate users.....shadow or other moderator may move this to code section so it would be useful there than here...nice idea!


vbs functions: http://www.devguru.com/Technologies.../functions.html

Yeah Bslintx,

Thats a very good idea. When i was typing this email i was also thinking how we could separate / order all links on this forum (e.g. by script language)
Just a <select> droplist with all script languages to select -> result will be links about that specific script language.
Thanks for your points!
Do you have links yourself to post here?

How should we execute this idea??

best regards,
Leuvenaar

you're idea sounds good to me....i'm sure shadow will see this post and will like the though(he likes innovatve ideas) because it helps people on a mass level ....so to shadow...or another moderator... haven't submitted an idea to suggestions to admin page, but can there be a small space set aside to allow for db's to be stored for this type of situation...or will we have to rely on "whatcha get is whatcha pay for (free) hosting which will be a problem w/ the vol of users on this popular aspfree site...please advise....thanks

Great job Leuvenaar. www.brinkster.com has a "educational" free hosting that I think is quite far the best around.

Posted in another thread but http://www.regexplib.com/ is probably a contender for this excellent thread.

Maybe it should be made sticky?
