Can't open .asp files
« on: August 10, 2009, 04:28:26 pm »
Hi all,

Sometimes on the forum there is a link to another post, but when I click on it it downloads a file called topic.asp. I've looked this up and found that it could be opened by a web browser or text editor. However when I try to do this I either get a blank page or a single line of gibberish. Anyone think they know how I could solve this?

.asp are dynamically generated web pages so no point in downloading them.
I guess they are links to the old forums which aren't online anymore but there is an archive : http://archive.forums.soldat.pl/

Fixed link

It's actually http://archive.forums.soldat.pl/

And 1ronclaw it would help if you could tell us the links that don't work for you

Now they don't. Not really needed anymore as if you attempt to go to http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?whatever it redirects you to the proper page on forums.soldat.pl

The links in particular are on the Soldat Fan Apps page, links to the "original forum post" for some of the statistic programs. When I hover over some of the links they are distinctly different than other ones. You'll see what I mean if you try it.

Okay, I've made it so the forums replace the old asp link with a link to where the archived topic should be on http://archive.forums.soldat.pl . (provided you haven't disabled the word filter in your profile) I've also made pages on the forum archive look less terrible.
