We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SUMMARY
You can use Active Server Pages (ASP), an Internet Server Extension, to dynamically generate HTML pages on the server side, and the ASP pages are client independent.



MORE INFORMATION
You implement ASP pages by using the Asp.dll file to and process the text files containing ASP code. When a request for a page with an extension associated with ASP is received, the Asp.dll file is called by the Internet Information Server (IIS).

NOTE: By default, the extension for Active Server Pages is .Asp.

It is possible to use ASP with different types of Internet servers. However, the only servers tested and supported is Microsoft Internet Information Server version 3.0.
