Active Server Pages or Classic ASP, as it is more commonly
known, is Microsoft's first server side scripting engine that enables you to
make dynamic and interactive web pages.
Classic ASP uses server-side scripting to dynamically
produce web pages that are not affected by the type of browser the website
visitor is using.
The default scripting language used for writing ASP is
VBScript, although you can use other scripting languages like JScript
(Microsoft's version of JavaScript).
When a browser requests an ASP Page, the Web server
generates a page with HTML code and sends it back to the browser.Any web pages
containing ASP cannot be run by just simply opening the page in a web browser.
The page must be requested through a web server that supports ASP, this is why
ASP stands for Active Server Pages, no server, no active pages.
