ASP WEB HOSTING

ASP web hosting services support Active Server Pages. An Active Server Page is a Microsoft technology which resembles a server-side include or common gateway interface application that runs on the server for creating webpages with varying content. These tiny programs can be coded using any language, however the most common of these programming languages is VBScript, although others like JavaScript, Perlscript or JScript can be used as well. Commonly, the small program in the webpage on the side of the server receives input from the requester for some specific data from the database and then builds the page on the fly before sending the information to the user. The successor to the ASP technology is ASP.NET, a collection of web development tools marketed by Microsoft as well which is an integral component of Microsoft .NET platform and can be used by programmers to produce variable content websites, online applications and XML online services. It is also available as an add-on to Internet Information Services. A variety of embedded components makes the programming of Active Server Pages sites a breeze. Each component is an element of a bigger group of frequently-used functionalities useful for creating variable content webpages. There are 6 embedded objects of this sort in ASP 2.0 namely Application, ASPError, Response, Request, Server and Session, a cookie-based object that records variables from page to page. The following web hosts offer ASP Hosting functionality.
