What is ASP.NET?
ASP.NET is an intelligent program that provides to programmers all the
requirements for developing high-quality web applications for
individuals and corporations. ASP.NET is integrated in the .NET
Framework, so all .NET Framework features are available to ASP.NET
applications. Your applications can be written in any language that is
compatible with the common language runtime (CLR), including Visual
Basic and C#. The topics in this section provide details about how to
use the features offered by ASP.NET.
ASP.NET is one of the most recent versions of Active Server Page that
form part of the Microsoft .NET framework. ASP is server-side
scripting language with a wide variety of features and powerful tools.
If you are a web developer you will be able to write powerful scripts
for dynamic WebPages with ASP.NET. If you have some experience
programming in ASP you should know that ASP is not the same that
ASP.NET. Both are similar but ASP.NET is not only a superior version,
it has another different technological platform. ASP.NET is the main
competitor of PHP. It is a Microsoft technology and has a proprietary
license, so it is not Open Source like PHP.
What do I need to operate ASP.NET?
Similar to PHP you will need three basic things to operate with
ASP.NET: A server, a database and the ASP.NET itself installed in
Your computer. Before use ASP.NET you should have some basic knowledge
in HTML, XHTML, XML and have a good understanding of the WEB 2.0. You
must have to use the IIS (Internet Information Services) which is the
web server used by ASP.NET and come in the original CD of each server
operating system running under Windows. If you have Windows XP you
should operate ASP.NET without having to install it because it comes
installed in your computer. If your computer running on Windows XP
doesn’t have installed this program, proceed to check your original CD
and then install it.
How it works?
ASP.NET always return the *.asp file when the end user request it from
the web browser. Then the IIS process this request in the ASP.NET
engine and return this process to the web browser. ASP.NET works in the
platform of the .NET framework and you have to install it in your
computer. I recommend you visit the ASP.NET Official site
