how do you create a ASP document?

Question

I have opened up notepad...and typed this:


<%
response.write("Hello World!")
%>


And then I saved as .asp file. But when I open the file, I just see blank page...no "hello world" message

Answer 1

ASP is interpreted by Microsoft IIS server and returned to clients as HTML. What you need is IIS or some other server software that can handle ASP pages. Remember that the client would see the following once interpreted:


Hello World!


They wouldn't see the native ASP code. Just opening the .asp with a browser should return a blank page or an error (depending on which browser version) as it can't process the script.

Answer 2

It has to be running on a web server with ASP support or it won't work.

Answer 3

you should instal IIS
