    Calling an ASP.NET page from ASP?

    Is there a recommended way for a .ASP page to call a .ASPX page? I've got a function in
    an ASPX page that I need to call from an ASP page. The web site is quite busy, so I'd be
    happy to find the most EFFICIENT way to do this?

    Right now, I'm looking at using XMLHTTP to call the ASPX page. I'm confident that this
    will work, and will return the value I want - but I'm curious if anyone feels that there
    is a more efficient way to do this?

    Thanks lots!!!

    Toni

      No, that would be the only way. On the server you would use ServerXMLHTTP,
      not XMLHTTP.

      You might consider putting that function into a web service, but that's out
      of scope of this group.

          Bob, Thanks!

          Sorry, I'm not familiar with the term "web service" and Google gives me too much
          nonuseful info on this...

          Just so I know where to start looking - when you refer to putting the function into a
          web service, are you referning to the function in my ASPX page, OR, an ASP web service
          that calls the ASPX page? I'm not asking to go outside the scope of this group, just
          give me a hint so I can get started?

              No, I'm talking about taking the function completely out of the aspx page
              and putting it into an asmx page. That way both your aspx and asp pages can
              call it. Do a google for "consuming web service from classic asp" for some
              info.
