ASP is just normal html but it is processed by a different dll that html. You can insert vb script between <% %> symbols. This code is processed on the server and is not sent to the client. You can then use vb script to refer to asp based objects such as Request, Response and Session. You can use Response.Write to send html to the client. You can do what you want with the vbscript.

For me, migrating from vb to asp is somewhat confusing in the first place especially for newbies. But when you understand how it works your nothing but a wild dewd!

Here I think is the basic step..

1. Understand the technology - considering the client and the server side.
2. Learn the language - HTML/DHTML, JavaScript, and VBScript
3. Refinements...

Hi
Yes i agree with Chay Luna tha comming on to ASP from Vb is a bit confusing regarding the control flow as Vb is more of event driven.Also debugging is better in VB
What do u think????

Thanks

Have a nice day!

Hi,

yes,asp is not event driven (it is interpreted line by line of ur code).

But ASP will be the better choice when u go for the scalablity, as u dont want to upgrade all ur client machine u upgrade the server alone and get the benifited..
