Client-side <-> server-side thing...

Visual Studio247
hello

How to do this: a client connects to my Web site (ASP) and pushes a button (client-side, javascript) that tells the SERVER to open a modem connection (server-side .dll) to a remote modem. The computer having the remote modem is a industrial PC collecting data and upon request it should send data back to the SERVER, and the data should again be shown in the client-side textfield, for example

How to launch a server-side method (.dll) from a client-side javascript, and when data is received through the modem in the SERVER, how to show that data again in the client-side

Thanks in advance for any comments

Use XMLHTTP in your client-side code to post data to a server-side page and

receive the response from that page.

I use this technique in my dynamic listbox demo which is available here:
