ASP / .Net

ASP is also an abbreviation for application service provider.

An Active Server Page (ASP) is an HTML page that includes one or more scripts (small embedded programs) that are processed on a Microsoft Web server before the page is sent to the user.

An ASP is somewhat similar to a server-side include or a common gateway interface (CGI) application in that all involve programs that run on the server, usually tailoring a page for the user.

For Web service applications, Microsoft provides a new version of ASP support called ASP.NET.

ASP is not commonly offered by web hosting companies.
