You have asked this same thread four times, each time you are asking about a topic that is not covered by
ASP.NET and each time we delete the thread as off-topic. If you have questions about this topic, please take the question to a forum that covers Classic ASP and VBScript. Your previous threads:
and you got answers to your question in the most recent thread. The answer is as follows:

ASP (Active Server Pages) is what is known as a "Gateway Interface" framework. (I emphasize framework because it is no more a language than ASP.NET is) What this does is allow you to have a single file that runs server code and has client
side markup. ASP.NET allows for this functionality with the <%%> tags. For instance:
Current Date:<span class="dateSpan"><%= DateTime.Now.ToString() %></span>
You can do this in ASP.NET as well. What these gateway interfaces do is take a look at the file (in the case of your question, it will be a file with the .asp extension, asssuming IIS is set up to do this properly), and executes all the code within the
code brackets first. In the example above, it does a Response.Write of the DateTime.Now object's .ToString() method. As for your question of language, ASP supports VB and JavaScript and you will need either/both of those in order to take advantage of the
server-side aspect of web application development. After that is all said and done, a finalized document with html is send from the server across the wire to the user's browser, which then parses and displays the HTML.
From a theoretical standpoint, this is no different from any other web application framework out there. It is obviously similar to things like php, jsp, cgi, etc. But ASP.NET does this same exact thing. The difference with ASP.NET is that it provides you
a lot more power by allowing you to create a more structured system and allows you to separate your server logic from your client logic more readily.
One of my first systems was built in ASP using JavaScript. I was able to build an entire system using nothing more than notepad. In reality, you can build a system in any framework using notepad, it just gets more complicated as the framework gets more
complicated. As I understand it, there are versions of Visual Studio that support ASP, but you'll have to do a little research to figure out which one will work out best for you.
Again, because you are asking about a subject that is off topic, it will be deleted. Any following thread that is like this will also be deleted. Please stop posting about Classic ASP (*.asp not *.aspx) and vbscript.
those links are your previous postings. They aren't the answer your looking for.
Here is what I understand of both technologies and reasons why asp.net is much better than classic ASP.
Classic ASP intermingles business logic code with visual elements on one web page making use of VBScript to give the impression of a dynamic web page. ASP.NET on the other hand allows the programmer to separate the business logic into a code behind page
(aspx.vb/aspx.cs) from the visual elements page (*.aspx) and is truly dynamic.
Classic ASP is not as easily able to take advantage of AJAX as asp.net is.
Classic ASP makes object oriented programming concepts difficult while asp.net is object oriented by nature as you can use classes instead of sub-routines.
Classic ASP with VBScript code is rather messy, convoluted and hard to troubleshoot. ASP.NET is much easier to troubleshoot as you can take full advantage of visual studio's debugger.

ASP Confusion ??
Jan 04, 2013 04:42 PM|LINK
Hello Experts,
I have some questions about ASP only not consider ASP.net:
1. What is ASP and is it programming language or else ?
I heard that Java/Vb scripts are required for making ASP
program. can we not make ASP programs without help of
java/vb Scripts. Plz make one program of ASP, with or
without help of jav/vb scripts ???
2.How ASP is differ from ASP.net
3. What can ASP do for you ?? is it Client side programming or
server side programming? What is practical use of ASP ?
4. In which Editor, we can make ASP program ?
Note:
Plz Beginners or non-professional stay away from this thread
Regards
KS

Finally, if you have any more Classic ASP/VBScript questions, please post a thread at haneng.com as they cover that topic.
