Putting a program on a page so that the program runs on the page

[hankshlump]

Hi. I am wondering if you can put a program on a webpage so that the program is actually run on the page. I wanted to put a text reverser i made in visual basic onto my webpage. Is it possible to do so. If so somebody help me out.

You can, but only if you're persistent. Since you wrote it in VB, you might be able to make an ActiveX control out of it, then use the setup wizard to make an HTML page for it. Otherwise, use VB script. For best results, use Java. It's not that much harder and works far better, because VBScript is dangerous (heard of ILOVEYOU?). Java applets run in a secure environment that stops them doing anything to your PC. They are also smaller (you don't need to distribute VB DLLs), and platform independent (they work on any browser with Java support, which is IE, Netscape, Opera, on nearly any OS).

No, I already have the program, and i don't kno0w how to do java, and its not anything bad its a program i wrote for somebody, but decided I would just put it on a web page so how would i go about doin that?
