ASP Mailing List v1.1

Default Page

This set of pages allows you to offer a mailing list with subscribe and unsubscribe function on your website. There are a range of options that allow you to manage aspects of your mailing list.

1. This should run 'out-of-the-box' if extracted in full to your Inetpub / localhost directory or web server. If you are installing this on a web server, you should check that you have 'Write' permissions to the '_data' directory.
2. You should ensure that your web server has 'default.asp' listed in your Enable Default Document settings for IIS and that the 'default.asp' page is the home page for your mailing list section. This is important as some email types sent using this script include a link in the body of the email that references the default.asp page at a specific location, allowing list members to Update or Remove their personal details.
3. You need to edit some constants at the top of the 'includes/_configuration.asp' page.
4. This script uses a 'DSN-Less ODBC Driver' connection to the Microsoft Access 2000 database as defined in the 'includes/_configuration.asp' openDB () function. You can select another type of connection by editing (uncommenting-in or commenting-out) connections in this function.  Options are provided for a 'Jet 4.0 Driver' or 'global.asa' Application connection.
