ASP - Active Server Pages
Active Server Pages (ASP) is an open, compile-free application environment
in which you can combine HTML, scripts, and component calls to create
dynamic and powerful Web-based business solutions.
ASP runs as a service of the VPS Web
Server and is optimized for multiple threads and multiple users.
This means that it's fast, and it's easy to implement. If you use ASP,
you can separate the design of your Web page from the nitty-gritty details
of programming access to databases and applications. This frees up programmers
to do what they do best--code like crazy--and, conversely, frees designers
to worry about just the design rather than the database.
Files created with Active Server Pages have the extension .asp.
With ASP files, you can activate your Web site using any combination of
HTML, scripting--such as JavaScript, VBScript, or Perl--and components
written in any language. This means your ASP file is simply a file that
can contain any combination of HTML, scripting, and calls to components.
When you make a change on 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 compiled.
Our Virtual Servers support two different implementations of ASP:
-
Apache:ASP
Apache::ASP provides an Active Server Pages port to the Apache Web
Server with Perl scripting only, and enables developing of dynamic
web applications with session management and embedded Perl code.
-
Chili!Soft
ASP¹
Chili!Soft ASP is a Solaris UNIX implementation of Microsoft's Active
Server Pages technology and uses VBScript as its native scripting
language.
Another ASP implementation involves converting ASP code to PHP code.
