About Active Server Pages

Active Server Pages (ASP) is a powerful and easy-to-use technology that is designed for use in creating dynamic web sites. Using ASP, we can write code that generates HTML dynamically - at the time the user requests the web page. This means that we can write more effective, interactive and functional web applications.

ASP 3.0 is the most recent version of ASP, and is released with version 5.0 of Microsoft's Internet Information Server (IIS 5.0) web server, with Windows 2000. It is also ported for use on UNIX.

ASP is an easy way to control content – giving us the flexibility to handle complex professional commercial sites. If you want to program a web page, pure HTML is fine, however this book shows how to add dynamism to web site generation and will utilize components, objects and Databases to achieve that.

Who is this Book For?

Beginning Active Server Pages 3.0 is aimed at two distinct groups of developers. First, it addresses the needs of the HTML programmer who is looking to progress to the next stage - to create dynamic web pages and understand how to structure a site for future growth. Second, it is aimed at developers switching to Windows 2000, by outlining all the changes and explaining ASP from the standpoint of IIS 5.0 and the new user interface.
