I have noticed a lot of views on this post, but disappointingly no one has commented (given feedback) or even more important, contributed any other code blocks, tips, or advice on "classic" ASP. I would like to see this forum grow and become a great resource for classic ASP developers and future ASP developers.

I know there is a big buzz around the whole ASP.NET realm, but unless creating large, application oriented internet projects, classic ASP is perfect for accomplishing whatever needed on most sites (other than heavy application based "Dot-Com" sites), and makes a web developer's life much easier.

I am also going to go as far as to say ASP is far superior to PHP (which in my opinion is a pain in the a$$).

Tell me what you think...
 
i'll bet the high view count is because people are coming in from Google and viewing the post... probably copying it and leaving.
 
I agree asp v php, but probably because I'm not very familiar with php. As to .net, I think it's the only way to go, forget classic asp. MS have made it very easy (with Web Developer Express as a free download) and JoDo host .net 2 along with Ajax.net, so what more could you want ? Why bother with classic asp and it's associated spaghetti code and lack of proper types etc?
