Hi everyone,

I am an html programmer who has been recently asked to make some graphic changes to images on a site that was written in .asp and to change some copy as well. They need to make some minor color changes to jpegs/gifs and some text. I was wondering if this would just be a process of changing the image and using the same name and swapping for the images portion. Then with the text changes just locating the asp page and editing the text.

I worked on some html pages awhile back that had asp code sprinkled into it and it was an easy editing job. But I just want to make sure with the asp guru's. :thumbsup:

They are still HTML pages with snippets of asp code thrown in. You can edit the page just like you would have done on old HTML pages.

Text-wise, it's probably stored in a database. If so then they might well have a CMS that you could use, otherwise it's a case of going into the DB and making any changes in there. That said, the text might just be on the page but it would seem silly to have dynamic pages.

And yes it does seem like you could modify an image used on an .asp page and still keep the same filename for the image...
