ASP is a server-side scripting environment. It was introduced by Microsoft in 1996 and is comprised of built-in objects, server-side scripts, ADO capability (access to databases), and ActiveX components which allow web developers to build dynamic web sites such as search engines, e-Commerce sites, auction houses, sharehouses, web portals, and more.
In an ASP , it is dynamic (i.e. what the webmaster actually typed into the page is a set of instructions for the server to go and fetch, gather or calculate some kind of data; then compile it in a nice orderly way and 'write' all the information into html and send the page back to the user's browser).
