ASP.NET

ASP.NET

ASP.NET is a new ASP generation. It is not compatible with Classic ASP, but ASP.NET may include Classic ASP.

ASP.NET pages are compiled, which makes them faster than Classic ASP.

ASP.NET has better language support, a large set of user controls, XML-based components, and integrated user authentication.

ASP.NET pages have the extension .aspx, and are normally written in VB (Visual Basic) or C# (C sharp).

User controls in ASP.NET can be written in different languages, including C++ and Java.

When a browser requests an ASP.NET file, the ASP.NET engine reads the file, compiles and executes the scripts in the file, and returns the result to the browser as plain HTML.
