The full form of the ASP is Active Server Pages. ASP is a server side Web building scripting engine. It is generally a server page which includes embedded programming. On the Windows server, the programs are being processed. In general, the ASP server-side engine involves the process of interpreting and performing the ASP document and then returning the document to the user. It is essentially a web-based platform that seeks to create dynamic web pages for programmers. ASP will contain both scripts and standard HTML as well.
