Synopsis

Active Server Pages (ASP) technology is now of importance to Web masters, IT professionals and programmers who are familiar with HTML and languages such as Visual Basic, JavaScript, Perl and C++. The open development environment provided by Active Server Pages gives developers the flexibility to combine HTML, scripts and ActiveX server components to create Web-based applications. With ASP, developers can create Web pages that allow site visitors to view personalized and regularly updated informtion. In this guide, readers will find complete information on using ASP's open application environment - incorporating scripting languages and using ActiveX server components that can be written in anything from COBOL to Visual Basic to Java. The book includes information on how to incorporate database files into an ASP application. Readers will find out how to use ASP for business solutions, such as extending sales and customer service to the Web and providing access to corporate databases to any browser on an intranet. There is also a section on how to use Web tools in conjunction with ASP. The enclosed CD includes sample scripts, ActiveX server components and sample Active Server Pages. Databases, images and other files that can be tied together with ASP technology are also included.
