Beginners we often say that ASP is not a language, although it seems that the ASP code is a scripted form. Microsoft defines ASP as an environment for execution by a scripting language. In this execution environment, the Code for ASP technology can be two, one is VBScript and the other is JScript. Both of these are supported by the ASP by default.
Of course, you can also use other scripting languages, and all you have to do is switch to an ActiveX scripting in that language.
For example, you are very good at using the Perl language, so you can use PerlScript for ASP development. In addition to doing some simple basic requirements settings, you do not need to use other tools can be very convenient to use ASP technology for the development of the site.

Because ASP scripts are strictly in the ASCII file format, you can design your ASP pages without any special tools at all. But one thing is, before we start designing our own ASP pages, we have to run a server that can support ASP technology so that we can browse the ASP pages. In other words, you can't try to open a browser to read an ASP content from your local HTLM page.
So what server environment can ASP run in? are: Windows NT, 98, running Internet Information Server (IIS) or personal Web Server (PWS). where IIS 4 (NT Option Pack 4) contains The latest version of ASP technology.
If you are using NT Server, then you need to install NT Option Pack 4 and start IIS in your system.
If you are using an NT Workstation, or a Windows 95/98 operating system, you need to install a personal Web Server, which is a technically simple IIS. However, it has completely enabled you to run the ASP offline on your own machine.
Even if you have no experience with Web services at all, rest assured that PWS is still very easy to use. Install a PWS you will get a base 127.1.1.1/site to test.
