After some months working, finding and fixing bugs in the earlier version of ASP Xtreme Evolution, I’m proud to release the version 1.0.1.0. This is a very stable version. It comes with snippets to increase the productiveness and has some minor changes to help you to organize the code. I suggest those using the v.1.0.0.0 to upgrade as soon as possible. If you can’t upgrade, check the CHANGES in the Read More to fix your old version against the critical issues.

While I’m working with Classic ASP I always miss a lot of features that other languages provide. Sometimes it even happens between the Visual Basic and ASP, like the Mid statement, optional keyword and StrConv function. This Class provides some methods I miss more and also gives me the possibility to work with strings in a OO(Object Oriented) way. The main goal of this Object is to enable placeholders and replacements for human readable strings. Other methods are merely natural derivations from the process of work with Strings.

There are times in the life when you realise that the world has really changed and the things that was once so important to you doesn’t matter anymore. This is the case of my old dithered-extended quirksmode javascript library. It cost me years to enhance and extend but nothing more makes sense in a better standardized world.

Today I’m releasing three ASP 3.0 classes to encrypt data. They are based on the Phil Fresle from Frez Systems Limited work and the algorithms available are MD5, SHA256 and Rijndael. Feel free to get’em and start encoding your passwords and other secret things.

Very often you need a consistent and coherent pattern to take the best of a technology can provide with the maximum productivity, yet you must respect the history involved around this technology to make it compliant with the legacy environment turning your application accessible and easy of adaptation.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. It has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
