In short: No. In long: You could technically make a VB program that functioned as a website and have users download it and run it to view the content, but that would make it a program, not a website. Learn some basic HTML and make some graphics to work around it. Frontpage is nice, but not really necessary. |

Well, I guess you can create a program that generates HTML code, but other than that ... executable programs and HTML are totally different things | |||

If you're looking for a program where you can make a website by just using 'drag and drop' buttons, images, tables and whatever, you should get Microsoft Frontpage or Macromedia Dreamweaver. Visual Basic is for making real applications, not websites. | |||

the closest you can come to making a website in VB is to use ASP.NET, in which you can use, among other things, VB (or something like it) to generate web pages server-side a la PHP. | |||

Nope, you can't make a website in VB. You CAN however connect to your DB and such. | |||

You can create a stupid ActiveX thing in Visual Basic that can go onto websites. But nobody uses ActiveX anymore. | |||

ActiveX objects that can be put on webpages ... and wasn't that only for Internet Explorer, anyway? But yeah, there's also that Internet Explorer control that can be used in Visual Basic ... there's even one for Flash, in which I was able to load Flash games and alter the variables to cheat |

Originally posted by AcmlmYeah, only IE supported them, or IE was the only browser that supported it well. Whatever. Anyway, the target for web designers is to make their website look good in other browsers, not just one. So using ActiveX would look like crap in other browsers. Hence it flopped |

Plus the fact that ActiveX is riddled with security holes didn't help matters much. | |||

Well, ActiveX is still actively used by the only people who found it useful, Microsoft. ActiveX can still be seen if you try to view Office Documents in IE and maybe a few other things that Microsoft. Other than that, I really do not know any third party stuff that uses ActiveX but I may be wrong... | |||
