ASP Components
These are components specifically designed for server side use in Active Server Pages (often called Classic ASP to distinguish between the later .NET variation). They can also be described as COM objects. These components are supplied as DLL files, which must be registered on the server.
csImageFile is a powerful image editing component which can resize and edit a variety of file formats.
csImageLite is a cut-down image editing component, available at a lower price than csImageFile.
csASPUpload is a component for saving HTTP uploads sent through the browser.
csDrawGraph is a component for producing simple bar charts, pie charts and line graphs in an image format.
csASPZipFile is a component that can dynamically zip files for streaming from a website.
csFTPQuick allows files to be sent from your server to another server by FTP.
csASPGIF is an image editing component specifically for animated GIFs.
As COM objects, these components can be used in a surprisingly wide range of programming and scripting environments beyond their original target of Active Server Pages. We have descriptions and code fragments of some of these applications, if you explore the website further.
ActiveX / OCX Controls
ActiveX controls are another variation of components that can be used in Windows programming environments. They are sometimes called OCX controls, after their file extension. They have are visual and can be used in applications with a user interface and are licensed to be used in distributed applications. They can be used in Microsoft Internet Explorer, running with Javascript, (or Edge in Compatibility Mode).
csXImage is an image editing control that has support for interfacing with TWAIN scanners.
csXGraph is a control for plotting and displaying simple bar charts, pie charts and line graphs.
