Hey everyone,

Well, I am interested in learning the basics of ASP. I would most likely just be downloading scripts and wanting to modify them.

Is there any tutorials or any other recommendations to start me out...

Thanks a lot,
Phan

do u no any programming languages?
the benfit of ASP is that u could program it in any language as long as the script engine for that language is install

even if u don't know any lanuages, VBScript is an easy language for u to learn

i think from window OS to windows server .. it doesnt care how you upload it ... either binary or ascii ... because they both windows (that was my teory - please correct if wrong)

and ofcourse Win 2000 server is good than Win NT .. because win 2000 were the new version of NT .. didnt you know that ?

It does matter whether you upload it in binary or ASCII, no matter what the OS. ASP needs to be uploaded in ASCII.

ASP scripts do not have to be chmod'd, because A. You need to chmod anything on windows servers and B. it's html embedded.
