These pages demonstrate some simple server-side scripts. These are 'Active
Server Pages', pages that run VBscript instructions on the server. Since
VBscript is a Microsoft invention, ASP pages run best on Windows servers (there is a version of ASP for Unix
servers called ChiliSoft ASP but in my experience it doesn't work well). The
need for a Windows server is the reason that these pages are running on a
different website (check the URL above).
This page demonstrates many simple
scripts including date and time.
A simple form collects data and sends it
on to another page.
This form asks you to choose a
destination, sends the data to an ASP to process your choice into a URL and
then sends you to the URL.
A calculator made using ASP (not a
very good idea, because the interactivity of ASP is not within the
page, it is between the pages i.e. ASP does its work as the page is
being composed, before it is sent to the browser).
