What is ASP? Gan Yiping
Active Server Pages are a programming environment where you can mix using HTML, scripting languages, and components to create powerful Internet applications. If you have created a site before, in which HTML, scripting languages, and components can be added, you can join the ASP program code. By adding a script command in the HTML page, you can create an HTML user interface, and you can also include some business logic rules by using components. Components can be called by script programs, or can be called by other components. ASP Working: After integrating ASP functions in the Web site, the following things will happen: 1. Users call out of the site content, the default page extension is .asp. 2. The browser requests an ASP file from the server. 3. The server-side script starts running the ASP. 4, the ASP file starts processing in order from top to bottom, execute the script command, execute the HTML page content. 5, page information is sent to the browser. Since the script is running on the server, the web server is sent to the browser after all the processing is completed. This means that ASP can only run on the server that can be supported. Another benefit of letting the script reside on the server side is: The user cannot see the code of the original scriptor, the user sees, only the final HTML content.
