Abbreviated ASP. In Microsoft Internet Information Server, a script interpreter and execution environment that supports VBScript and JavaScript and is compatible with other scripting languages such as Perl, REXX, Tcl, and Python through add-ins from third-party developers.
ASP allows you to combine HTML, scripts, and ActiveX components on the same Web server; all the code runs on the server and presents the results of this dynamic process to the client browser as a standard HTML page.
