What are the benefits of Active Server Pages?
An Active Server Page (ASP) is an HTML page that is processed on the web server before the page is sent to the user. The script in the web page accesses data or a designated API and then builds or customizes the page “on the fly” before sending it to the requester. Active Server Pages is an open technology framework and can use scripts written in C++, Visual Basic, and Java. Active Server Pages is the premier standards based method for creating dynamic web pages. Rather than using a proprietary method of integrating dynamic data into a page, ASP is a pervasive 2nd generation standard pioneered by Microsoft.
