ASP stands for Active Server Pages
It is a server-side scripting technology developed by Microsoft to create dynamic and interactive web pages
Unlike static HTML pages, ASP allows the content to change based on user actions or data from a database.
ASP pages usually contain a mix of HTML and scripting code, such as VBScript or JavaScript
When a user opens an ASP page in their browser, the server processes the code and sends back the result as plain HTML.
For example, ASP can be used to:
Display user-specific content
Collect form data
Access and update database records
Create login systems and shopping carts
ASP runs on Windows servers using Internet Information Services (IIS)
Although it was widely used in the early 2000s, today it has mostly been replaced by newer technologies like ASP.NET.
Still, ASP is important in the history of web development and helps us understand how dynamic websites were first built.
