What Is an ASP File? Files created with Active Server Pages have the extension .ASP. This story is an example; take a look at the address above. With ASP files, you can activate your Web site using any combination of HTML, scripting such as JavaScript or Visual Basic? Is It Hard to Use? I don't know about you, but whenever people start talking about doing things on the server, I start to get nervous. I think a lot about threading issues, synchronization, and generally stuff without a user interface. I assume it's going to be hard to do. Well, using ASP is about as easy as anything I've come across in years. Aw, Mom. Not Another Object Model! I really hate doing this to you, but I'm going to have to use that overused and overcomplex term "object model" again. Here's how it works. When a browser requests an ASP file from your Web server, your Web server calls Active Server Pages to read through the ASP file, executing any of the commands contained within and sending the resulting HTML page to the browser. Health Smoking always reminds me of the old friend you used to have. He/She would always be there when you needed them, when you where lonely, when you where stressed, when you where bored, any time at all when you needed some support to get through. However, one day you found out that this trusted old friend of yours was actually siphoning money out of your bank account a truly alarming rate. What’s even worse is that this old chum was also endangering the health of the very people you held most dear in life (including you yourself). It seems the loyalty and help of your special chum came at quite a price. In fact this friendship could have cost you every thing, perhaps even your own life and certainly your health.

Just stop for a moment and ask yourself, what other friend would seek to destroy me while offering support. What other friend would drive away those of your friends who didn’t share your total commitment to their way of doing things. Perhaps you begin to see that old chum of yours for what they really are…a cold blooded killer and destroyer of health and happiness.
