    Do VB6 programs work on web sites hosted on x10?

    put my first website on the internet and obviously used x10hosting but i made a concentration game (in Visual Basic 6) using characters from the orginal supermario and when ever i click the link it tells me the page does not exist. It works fine offline even as part of the website. It's a compiled program so it's just an .exe file. Does VB6 not work here on on the internet period? Will I have to rewrite it in VB.net? Hope not game took awhile to create and i'm not familiar with .net yet.

    .exe files are windows executable files, which means the user must download the game and run it off their computer. VB.Net is the kinda the same deal. It's just the type of project you choose when starting the project. VB.Net would have more internet-related projects compared to VB6.

    I think executable file will not work here due to restriction imposed. You can ask the user to download it and use it. Make the same using ASP.NET and try.

    u can use vb.net too but the project type has to be web. i suggest u do some reading on what a web application is ... html, making html on the fly
    Edit:
    if its a image animation kind of game u can try a java applet http://java.sun.com look at the tutorials there and learn basics of html http://www.w3schools.com/
