and very easy to use. For the development of the login process, the tools provided by this
software caused a lot of problems, so I used other techniques to reach the goal. These
techniques are linked to the Session object which set a variable in the server environment.
This function does not force the developers to send users’ information for each request.
Linking the web site to the Microsoft IIS Server® is easy to manage with the use of the IIS
panel:
Figure 18: This window presents the Microsoft IIS Server®
This panel presents all the information about requests, users, etc, in the “Analyse” and
“Statistics” windows. It also displays the local address of the server “http://Greg_2000” and
the referencing folder containing all the files “c:\inetpub\wwwroot”. During the process of
implementation, it is primordial to assess all functions as soon as they are added. After
copying files from the main folder to the IIS folder, designers can evaluate their work by
typing the URL of the local/remote server.
The site is displayed as it will be for the commercial version with all constrains 33 linked to the
web. This is an important process over the implementation and it is called the evaluation
process. Passing through the IIS server, dynamic pages are interpreted by the server which
will send the result of the interpretation to the client computer. This is the main solution to
assess the functioning of the system.
33 Bandwith is the main constrain over the Internet relative to Dr William Buchanan’s site:
