From: bcap on 27 Mar 2010 12:43 Hi, I am interested in learning how to include a name in a domain name. For example, let's say I have a domain name called www.URLNamingHelp.com I want to have the following: http://NameHere.URLNamingHelp.com or http://www.URLNamingHelp.com/NameHere Can you please point me in te right direction? Thank you!

This has nothing to do with ASP. [Please do not follow up here] You will have to set the CNAME, the Canonical Name, record.

Create this folder under your httpdocs or public folder and put a default document - default.asp, index.asp, or index.htm there. -- Bwig Zomberi

Use your hosting Control Panel for this. Given that the OP uses a host, and that that host has such panel. You can even have the www. version of your domain point to another directory than the root, while the url without www. points to the root. [The other way around seems not possible?] ======================================================= >> http://www.URLNamingHelp.com/NameHere > > NameHere is a directory.

I often use a server.transfer in my custom 404.asp page. With this technique it is even easy to have an asp file [with access to a database or other dynamic content, behind a session login, or with a serverside coded counter] act and look like a KML file [or a pdf, a jpg or whatever]: ================= 404.asp ============================ <% qrefer = Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") if instr(qstr,":80/myKMLs/myKml.kml")>0 then server.transfer "/myRealAndSecretKMLdirectory/myKml.asp" end if %> <h1>This is my 404 page .......</h1> ====================================================== NOT: the directory /myKMLs/ does not [need to] exist. -- Evertjan.
