Invalid URL when using LOcalHost

Does an ASP page containing:
<% Response.Write "Hello World" %>

work?

I mean, are you even sure that your ASP page works?

If you are using FileSystemObject, it may be that you have AntiVirus
programs on your system that is "blocking scripts", which usually causes the
web page to appear "hanged". If that's the case, disable that feature of
your AntiVirus program if you want to use FileSystemObject.

I am trying to run some asp pages on my personal
computer. Prevoiuslu I was using Windows-98 Personal Web
Servier. Now I have Windows XP and I just installed IIS.
.. I put the script in C;\inetup\wwwroot. That is the
home page of the default web when I go to IIS Adm tools
and look at it.

When I run from Netscape(4.61), sometimes the script just
hangs, other times I get the message Invalid URL.
Tried in IE 6.0 and get the same type of message.

I downloaded Frontpage 2002 extensions and installed them
also.. I am using Frontpage 2000. Would that cause a
problem?

Need help, have to develop some ASP pages

I have tried some simple scripts. Sometime it works
sometimes not. I have Norton, I will dis-able it while
trying to run the script.

Also do I have to give write authority on the directory my
scripts are?

Should I just un-install IIS and then restart from fresh?

When I attached a virtual directory, went to IE 6.0:
type <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://localhost/harry/index.html," target="_blank">http://localhost/harry/index.html,</a> the page came up.

As soon as I did the same thing and just referecned an asp
page, gave me this other message. Will try again tonight
and post the exact message. In Netscape, it didn't even
wwork

Yhanks for the help
