Here is a link (http://www.intermedia.net/) that supports FoxWeb. I haven't used Ric's Web Connection but if it uses DLL's I have found that most web hosting services that I've asked will register VFP dll's (make sure you mention Microsoft's VFP) which was a bit surprising to me.

>>After using Rick Strahl's Web Connection to do web applications, I tend to feel sorry for people using active server pages and trying to debug. I also feel sorry for people using VFP data via an ODBC connection. At least that's the way I felt when I got the following:

>Hello John, I am curious about the cost of implementing with Rick's Web Connection. You can't just thow this out on a virtually hosted site can you? It seems like you have to own the server and at minimum co-locate with an ISP. Am I understanding this correctly? So I guess my question is, what are the perfromance gains compared to the costs?
