ASP Level 1: Active Server Pages (ASP) technology provides the environment in which you can run scripts on the server. If you can write HTML, you can create an ASP file. It�s really that easy. Your ASP file is simply a file that can contain any combination of HTML, scripting and calls to components. When you make a change to the ASP file on the server, you need only save the changes to the file; the next time the Web page is loaded, the script will automatically be complied. Of course, to take advantage of ASP, you�ll want to add features to the script that will run on the server, such as database access or other network-related work.
