ASP Classic weblog systems? - Jon Galloway

ASP Classic weblog systems?

I'm helping a friend on a website and .NET isn't available on that server. We'd like to add a simple blog system using Access as the data store. I was sure I could find something cheap or free, but I've been surprised that I haven't found anything I'm completely happy with. I've looked at BlogworksXML (no longer supported, but the install files can still be found), but it writes files out rather than writing to a database. I'm messing with UBlog, but the model's a bit different than what I'm trying to do and it's tough to make it fit. dBlog is promising, but it's Italian and I'm not. Am I really gonna have to take that trip down memory lane and write an ASP / Access blog system? Anyone recommend one?

I'm looking for multiple users posting to a common feed - similar to the weblogs.asp.net, but I don't need all the neat features.

I use UBlog... for me it's good, and you can easily customize the Access Database as you want.

there's also webwiz journal (http://www.webwizguide.info/) though it doesn't come with an rss generator but i believe that's easily taken care of.

It's only gone and won an award for best coding ;-) It's a mimick of BlogX for .NET but I made it in Classic ASP for exactly the above reasons

If you need support, you can always e-mail me from Matthew1471.co.uk/Contact.asp
