Server Pages, which are plain HTML pages with ASP
code embedded in them. Site visitors can fill in information on
a Web site, it goes to the ASP file on the server, and based on
what has been sent, an HTML-coded page is generated on the fly
by the server and delivered back to the browser.
ASP is used on
everything from e-commerce sites to discussion boards. Microsoft
offers a few examples of what ASP technology can do:
-
Allow employees to update their own records, such as address
and health-plan benefit information, on an online employee
handbook
-
Let you connect your online store to an existing inventory
database and order-processing system
-
Give every site visitor a personalized view of the information
he or she seeks, automatically highlighting what's new since
the last visit
ASP works like CGI
scripting, but can be faster and easier to program and
implement.
