What are the disadvantages of ASP (Acdtive Server Pages)?
One disadvantage I can think of is ASP is Microsoft-specific, which means it primarily works best with IE. If you are looking for better support across the board, I would recommend HTML, XHTML, or XML. Each depends on your preference. I personally am growing more fond of XHTML because of its support for PDAs. I have a Treo 700w, and websites coded in XHTML tend to detect my PDA and reformat to fit better.
Reply:ASP's problem... mainly it ONLY runs on Microsoft Internet server, except one licensee who made ChiliASP, which let it run on Netscape servers. Don't know if they're still around.





ASP has evolved quite a bit since. Normal ASP is now called "ASP Classic". There's also ASPX and ASP.NET.
Reply:One big one is the Microsoft lock-in.
