What types of software technologies are used on this site?
For the www.VisionTel.com site, I ported legacy CGI and JavaScript applications to a server-side VB 5 ActiveX component. I used NT Active Server Pages to bridge the gap between the old CGI executable and the new features and components. The CGI script was encapsulated as a Visual Basic ActiveX COM object in order to allow the product development to continue under Windows NT.
