What is ASP?

An Active Server Page (ASP) is an HTML page that includes scripts that are processed on a Microsoft Windows web server before they are presented to the user requesting the page.

ASP files end with the .asp extension. ASP enables you to create interactive web pages that are customized to your site’s visitors. For example, your ASP scripts can take input provided by a visitor, such as a user name, and use that information to access data stored in a relational database and then modify the page specifically for that user.
