What is ASP?
Active Server Pages (ASP), also known as Classic
ASP or ASP Classic, was Microsoft's first server-side script engine for dynamically generated web
pages. Initially released as an add-on to InternetInformation
Services(IIS) via the Windows NT 4.0
Option Pack (ca. 1996), it was subsequently included as a free
component of Windows Server (since the initial release of Windows 2000 Server). ASP.NET, first released
in January 2002, has superseded ASP.
ASP 2.0 provided six built-in objects:
Application, ASPError, Request, Response, Server, and Session.Session, for
example, represents a session that
maintains the state of variables from
page to page.The Active
Scripting engine's support of the Component Object
Model (COM) enables ASP websites to access
functionality in compiled libraries such
as DLLs.
ASP 3.0 does not differ greatly from ASP
2.0 but it does offer some additional enhancements such as: Server.Transfer
method, Server.Execute method, and an enhanced ASPError object. ASP 3.0 also
enabled buffering by default and optimized the engine for better performance.
