| What about the qustion I got on the exam?
The question is abbreviated from the original wording, but I'm sure it asked about "streaming vector graphic".
11. Streaming vector graphic is what plug in?
A)Shockwave
B)Realplayer
C)VRML
D)Flash

| Mark, I think the key to this question is that we are talking about streaming vector as opposed to streaming video. I had this question on my test today. I missed three and I haven't been able to determine if this was one of them, but I don't think so. Look at the resource I pointed to in answer to your original post.

| Well we know that Realplayer is "streaming" and Flash is "vector-graphic" based. In Dummies it says that Realplayer is an Flash compatible application. | |
|
| This is to confirm your PGP answer tothe last question.
from Webopedia it states:
A technique for encrypting messages developed by Philip Zimmerman. PGP is one of the most common ways to protect messages on the Internet because it is effective, easy to use, and free. PGP is based on the public-key method, which uses two keys -- one is a public key that you disseminate to anyone from whom you want to receive a message. The other is a private key that you use to decrypt messages that you receive.

C. VBScript <
D. ActiveX Server Extensions (ASE)
VBSCRIPT IS CLIENT SIDE, NOT SERVER SIDE. THE ANSWER IS ASP.
I agree that the answer is VBScript. It is a Server Side Script. I use it extensively to on the server in a Microsoft Backend environment because of better error handling and database integration. You use it to create Active Server Pages however, Microsoft is pushing XML to facilitate ASPs. The key thing I pick up on is that "Active Server Pages is a server-side scripting technology" NOT a lanuage! Read the following quote I pulled from Microsoft's site:
quote:
Microsoft® Active Server Pages (ASP) is a server-side scripting technology that can be used to create dynamic and interactive Web applications. An ASP page is an HTML page that contains server-side scripts that are processed by the Web server before being sent to the user’s browser. You can combine ASP with Extensible Markup Language (XML), Component Object Model (COM), and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) to create powerful interactive Web sites.
Server-side scripts run when a browser requests an .asp file from the Web server. ASP is called by the Web server, which processes the requested file from top to bottom and executes any script commands. It then formats a standard Web page and sends it to the browser.
It is possible to extend your ASP scripts using COM components and XML. COM extends your scripting capabilities by providing a compact, reusable, and secure means of gaining access to information. You can call components from any script or programming language that supports Automation. XML is a meta-markup language that provides a format to describe structured data by using a set of tags."

| VBScript or ASP???
This is exactly what I mean by conflicting opinions on the correct answer.
Has anyone taken the test and had this question appear and know that they answered correctly ???

Go with Sasisan's answer of VBScript. He is right, I was mistaken in my answer. | |

| Hey you guys if you ever have any questions about conflicting answers, point your browser to http://webopedia.internet.com/
You can find answers to most of your questions there. As for the problem with conflicting answers on ASP, look what I found.
1. A specification for a dynamically created Web page with a .ASP extension that utilizes ActiveX scripting -- usually VB Script or Jscript code. When a browser requests an ASP page, the Web server generates a page with HTML code and sends it back to the browser. So ASP pages are similar to CGI scripts, but they enable Visual Basic programmers to work with familiar tools.
So, the answer is VBScript. Not ASP!

THE ANSWER TO THIS IS "ASP"
THE DEFINITION OF ASP IN THE EXAM CRAM BOOK FROM DULANEY IS "A SERVER SIDE SCRIPTING TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED BY MICROSOFT" | |

| Tough question but if the wording is correct, then I'd definitely go with VBScript. Here's why:
ASP is a Microsoft server-side scripting "technology", it's not a scripting language. A similar technology would be CGI. We discussed this in my New Horizons i-Net+ course and covered the difference b/w ASP and VBScript.
ASP can be used as a CGI alternative (along with JSP, PHP, and SSJS). Think of an ASP file as an HTML page with special commands embedded in it. These commands are executed on the server, and the resulting value is sent to the client.
You can use several interpreted scripting LANGUAGES with ASP, including VBScript, JScript, and JavaScript. However, ASP is optimized to work with VBScript and ActiveX components. This is why it's Microsoft's preferred server-side scripting LANGUAGE.
My 2-cents.
Happy trails
