This article explains what is ASP.NET and how different it
is from ASP.NET
ASP stands for Active Server Pages. ASP.NET is the next
generation of ASP. After the introduction of ASP.NET, old
ASP is called 'Classic ASP'.
Classic ASP uses vb script for server side coding. Vb
Script is not supported any more in ASP.NET. Instead,
ASP.NET supports more languages including C#, VB.NET, J#
etc. VB.NET is very similar to vb script, so it should be
easy for old Visual Basic or ASP programmers to switch to
VB.NET and ASP.NET
VB Script is a simple scripting language, where as VB.NET
or C# are modern, very powerfull, object oriented
programming languages. Just for that reason, you will be
able to write much more robust and reliable programs in
ASP.NET compared to ASP.
In classic ASP, there was no server controls. You have to
write all html tags manually. ASP.NET offers a very rich
set of controls called Server Controls and Html Controls.
It is very easy to drag and drop any controls to a web
form. The VS.NET will automatically write the required HTML
tags automatically for you.
ASP is interpreted, ASP.NET is compiled
