(ASP)Active Server Pages
Microsoft NT scripting language which allows YOU to design web pages that can make displaying, manipulating and editing databases is quick and easy.
So What are Active Server Pages?
ASP (Active Server Pages) was developed by Microsoft and it’s the company’s solution to server-side scripting. With ASP, the server sends the file to a client getting chance to adapt it before sending to user.
ASP use is possible when you are running a Microsoft webserver. There are different versions, which can be downloaded depending on what server you have installed. Using Microsoft webserver to run ASP, all you have to do is create a file on the webserver with .ASP extension.
Your ASP code can connect you to a database, such as SQL, Oracle, or any ODBC-compliant database. You also can dynamically insert the data into your HTML pages. So, using these ASP scopes you get a lot of different possibilities such as Ecommerce or customizable sites.
ASP.NET?
ASP.NET, which is also sometimes called ASP+, short for Active Server Pages.NET, is Microsoft's .NET version of ASP technology. It is the next generation of Active Server Pages and it differs from ASP in two main ways. Firstly it allows WYSIWYG editing pages because of its features server controls that can be separate the code from the content, secondly it supports code written in compiled languages such as C++, Perl, C# and Visual Basic. ASP.NET pages can be run side by side with ASP pages.
ASP and ASP.NET are compatible with any browser and function in the same way, which is sending back nothing but HTML to the client.
ASP and ASP.NET give a lot of different possibilities for its users. You can join their community any time as some ASP products can be freely downloaded from Microsoft sponsored web sites.
