把ASP的性能发挥到最大

　　

　　动态服务器主页是一种服务器端脚本技术，它的发展主要是为了能在Windows NT Server上的IIS(英特网信息服务器) 之下工作(第三代产品的存在使ASP能够在其他的服务器平台上使用). asp使服务器能够以最小的努力传递动态的,数据库里受到驱动的内容给客户。这篇文章的目的不是要让开发者把好的技术移到ASP上，而是向网络设计者，程序师和任何对网络发展感兴趣的人讲解动态服务器主页的好处。ASP不是我的第一个服务器端脚本技术.在我转向ASP之前我一直用JAVAScript ， Borland Intra Builder 和Oracle Web Application Server开发。现在我是一名ASP开发者，我将尝试着去讲解我为什么认为asp是目前一般网络开发者的最佳选择。

　　

　　容易使用

　　动态服务器主页是直接嵌入到 HTML 页面里的asp代码，被封装在<% 和 %>标签里。你仅需把ASP文件放入到有着脚本或实施任务的服务器上的。一个目录内，动态服务器主页脚本就开始运行了。每当你需要改变一些东西，你只需编辑.asp 文件，就这么简单，你的变换就会被应用进去了。

　　

　　语言独立

　　ASP是一个脚本引擎，它使你能够在你所选择的任何语言上开发。有效的缺省的两种语言是VBScript 和 JScript(JAVAScript 的微软版本)；然而,Perl，Python和其它语言的模块已经存在，支持其它语言的实现几乎是没有限制的。这使初学asp的开发者能够利用他或她的先前的程序设计经验。如果你曾经用过 Visual Basic 或 VBA(被用在微软办公职员里的Visual Basic版本)编程,你从VBScript开始将会没有任何问题。如果你熟悉 JAVAScript,那么JScript 是你的选择。Unix 专家系统将会发现Perl可能会被毫不迟疑地使用。

　　Maximize Your asp Performance

by David M. Williams



　　Active Server Pages are a server-side scripting technology primary developed to work under IIS (Internet Information Server) on Windows NT Server (3rd party products exist enabling the use of ASP on other server platforms). asp enables the server to deliver dynamic, database driven content to the client with minimal effort.

　　The goal of this article is not to move developers from other wonderful technologies to ASP, but to explain the advantages of Active Server Pages to Web designers, programmers and anyone interested in Web development. asp is not my first server-side scripting technology. I was developing with Netscape Server-Side

JAVAScript , Borland Intra Builder and Oracle Web Application Server before I moved to ASP. Now I'm an ASP developer, and I will try to explain why I think asp is currently the best choice for general Web developer.

　　>Ease of Use

　　Server Pages are plain HTML pages with asp code embedded into them enclosed in <% and %> tags. You just place ASP files into a directory on the server with scripting or execute permissions and your ASPs are ready to run. Whenever you need to change something you just edit the .asp files and that's it, your changes are applied.

　　>Language Independence

　　ASP is a scripting engine enabling you to develop in virtually any language of your choice. The two languages available by default are VBScript and JScript (Microsoft's version of JAVAScript); however, modules for Perl, Python and other languages already exist and there are virtually no limits for support for other languages to be implemented. This enables the novice asp
