Creating ASP pages

An active Server Pages(ASP) file in a text file with the extension asp that contains any combination of the following.

• Text
• HTML tags
• ASP script commands

It's easy to create an asp file. For any HTML file to which you want to add scripts, rename the file by replacing the existing htm. or.html file name extension with asp . To make the asp file available to web users, save the new file in a directory on your web site (be sure that the directory has Script or Execute permission enabled). When you view the file with your browser, you see that ASP processes and returns an HTML page. You can now add script commands to the asp file.

Because asp files require extra processing, you should not convert all of your HTML pages into ASP pages. Convert only the files that will have script commands into asp files. You can put both asp and htm files in the same directory.

You can use any text editor to create asp files. You may find it more productive to use an editor with enhanced support for ASP, such as Microsoft Visual InterDev.
