ASP Commands

The ASP command (Active Server Page) is a script inserted inside an HTML document which contains lines of commands (script) meant to be executed on a Web server before the results page is sent back to the user.

For example:

You can customize the information contained in a Web page in terms of the identity of the visitors. ASP script are inserted on a menu item. When a user activates a link, the script is executed, consults a data base, and applies an information filter and does not submit results other than those which correspond to the identity (usually defined by a password) of the visitor. The result of the script's execution is displayed on the Web page.

The HTML page which contains the ASP script also includes the formatting which must be applied to the data.

Although ASP is a Microsoft technology, it can be interpreted by most of the other browsers because it is integrated in the document.
