ASP.Net
ASP.NET is a set of web application development
technologies marketed byMicros oft.
Microsoft has completely rebuilt ASP.NET, based on the
Common Language Runtime (CLR) shared by all Microsoft
.NET applications.
Programmers can write ASP.NET code using any of the
different programming languages supported by the .NET
Framework, usually C#, Visual Basic.NET, or JScript .NET,
but also includingopen-so urce languages such as Perl and
Python.
Introduction to ASP.NET
1.ASP.NET is Microsoft's dynamic website technology and it enabling
developers to create data-driven websites using the .NET platform.
2.The latest version ofMicrosoft's Active Server Pages technology (ASP)
is ASP.NET.
3.In January 2002,ASP.NET version 1.0 was first released, withASP.NET
version 1.1 released in April 2003.In November 2005,Version 2.0 of
ASP.NET was released .
What is ASP?
ASP is a server side scripting technology and it enables scripts (embedded in web
pages) to be executed by an Internet server.
ASP:
•
is the Microsoft Technology
•
stands for Active Server Pages
•
is a program that runs inside the IIS
IIS:
•
stands for the Internet Information Services
•
comes as a free component with the Windows 2000
•
is also a part of Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack

•
The Option Pack can be downloaded from the Microsoft
PWS:
•
is a smaller - but fully functional - version of theI IS
•
can be found on your Windows 95 or 98 CD
What is an ASP File?
•
An ASP file is same as an HTML file
•
An ASP file can contain HTML,text,scripts, and XML
•
In an ASP file,scripts are executed on the server
•
An ASP file has file extension ".asp"
How does it works?
•
When a browser requests an HTML file, the server returns the corresponding file
•
IIS passes the request to the ASP engine on the server,when a browser
requests an ASP file.
•
The ASP engine executes the scripts in the file and reads the file, line by line.
•
Finally, the ASP file is returned to the browser in the form of plain HTML page.
It would help to have a basic understanding of Microsoft's ASP technology,before you
study ASP .NET.
If you want to learn more about ASP, you can study our ASP tutorial.
What is ASP+?
•
ASP+ is same as ASP.NET.
•
When they developed ASP.NET,ASP+ is just an early name used by Microsoft.
What is ASP.NET?
1. The latest version of ASP id ASP 3.0 is, but there will never be an ASP 4.0
version.
2. ASP.NET is the next generation of ASP, but it's not an upgraded version of
ASP.For server-side ASP scripting,ASP.NET is an entirely new paradigm.
3.ASP.NET is a component of the .NET Framework and Microsoft spent three years
2
rewriting ASP.NET from the ground up, and ASP.NET is not fully backward
compatible with ASP 3.0.
4. In the next chapter of this tutorial,you can read more about the differences
between ASP and ASP.NET .
.NET Framework
1.For the Microsoft .NET platform,the .NET Framework is theinfrastructur e .
2. For building, deploying, and running Web applications and Web Services,the
.NET Framework is an environment.
3.The .NET Framework contains common class libraries - like ADO.NET, ASP.NET
and Windows Forms - to provide advanced standard services that can be
integrated into a variety of computer systems and a common language runtime.
4.
5. The .NET Framework provides an easy integration between a number of different development languagesa feature-rich application environment, simplified development and .
6.The .NET Framework is language neutral and Currently it supports C++, C#,
Visual Basic, and JScript (Microsoft's version ofJavaScript).
7. For the .NET Framework,Microsoft's Visual Studio.NET is a common
development environment.
Advantages of Using ASP.NET
1.Improving Development productivity by reducing the lines of code to be written by
70% and also most of the frequently required code is now available out of the box.
2.To connect to new devices that may emerge in the future ,ASP.NET is making easier
to use with existing devices like Web browsers, PDAs, Cell phones and so on with a
potential.
3. Increasing scalability and performance for developing fast web applications
platforms by providing facilities such as caching.
4. Simplifying the management and administration of web applications
