ASP and ColdFusion 

Introduction to ASP 

Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) is a server side scripting technology that can be used to create 

dynamic and interactive web applications. An ASP page is an HTML page that contains server side scripts 

that are processed by a web server before being sent to the user s browser. You can combine ASP with 

Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) to create powerful interactive 

websites.  

ASP is a feature of the Microsoft Internet Information Server. Since the server side script is building a 

regular HTML page, it can be served to almost any browser. An ASP file can be created by including a 

script written in VBScript or JScript in an HTML file.   

On our system, the following components are available: ASP Mail, Jmail and ASP Upload.
