  • The Request and Response Objects

    Response.Buffer, Expires, ExpiresAbsolute
     Response.Buffer  does nothing : the output of all Dynamic-CD's ASP scripts is always buffered. Scripts run to completion and then the output is sent to the browser.  Response.Expires  and  Response.ExpiresAbsolute  do nothing - Dynamic-CD tells the browser to never cache its .ASP requests - effectively the value of Response.Expires is always zero.

    Request.ClientCertificate
    The call  Request.ClientCertificate  does nothing and does not generate an error.

    Request.ServerVariables

    Response.CacheControl
    The call  Response.CacheControl  does nothing.

    Response.AppendToLog
    The call  Response.AppendToLog  appends a string to a log file that defaults to WINDOWS_TEMP_DIR\temp\dyncdlog.txt where "WINDOWS_TEMP_DIR" is the current user's Windows temporary directory.
    The default logfile can changed by a call to  Server.LogFileName .
