Active Server Pages is a server-side scripting technology which is developed by Microsoft.

With ASP you can create dynamic web pages by putting script code inside your HTML pages. The code is executed by the web server before the page is returned to the browser. Both Visual Basic and JavaScript can be used.

ASP is a standard component in Windows 95,98, 2000, and XP. It can be activated on all computers running Windows.

Many web hosting providers are offering ASP, as it is becoming a more and more popular technology.

You can also avail this facility in the Windows hosting plans of the cpwebhosting.net.

But, Microsoft’s ASP technology runs only on Windows platforms.

However, Chili!Soft ASP is a software product that allows ASP to run on UNIX and some other platforms.
