"Remy Lebeau (TeamB)" <no.spam@no.spam.com> wrote in message news:41408a50$1@newsgroups.borland.com... | You can write your own web server program to handle | everything yourself. You did say that you wanted a stand-alone server. Yes, but how? How can I avoid having to install and set up IIS under Win XP Pro? I have written a small CGI Web Server App that can be "seen" as a URL from another PC, when my PC is running IIS, and that works fine. Now that I have appraised the capabilities of BCB5 Pro's WebRequest and WebResponse objects, I think I could write a server to respond any request. Actions are a brilliant idea. But if IIS is not running, the app instantly returns to the console prompt when run. How does one go from a path name on my PC, to a URL on the intranet, without using IIS? -- Mark Jacobs
