ASP .NET the new age of ASP work on several programming language. mostly on VB . NET and C#<br /><br /><b>2-</b>theoretically you can connect to any database through ADO if you used the required addon. though asp fully supports connecting to access database (no server required) and support also MS SQL connection.<br /><br /><b>3-</b>mostly it works on Microsoft IIS server. other servers can support asp also but mostly it works on IIS web server on windows machine.<br />so system,web server,DBMS and scripting language would be Microsoft product. in another saying every thing would be Microsoft made bundle.<br /><br /><b>4-</b>because neither windows now IIS is free, ASP is not a free language.<br /><hr /><br /><br /><span style="color:#FF0000;"><b>JSP:</b></span><br /><b>1-</b>on the other hand jsp technology is not microsoft made thing. it stands for Java Server Pages. and developed by Sun. it uses Java language as the scripting language. and accordingly if you know Java then you can easily start creating your website in jsp<br /><br /><b>2-</b>jsp is not known to be twined with any database. so you can connect to any database system simply by loading the driver for the database then connect. I use mysql my self when coding in jsp.<br /><br /><b>3-</b>jsp website is mostly supported by Apache Tomcat web server and work mostly on Linux based web server.But it also runs on JBOSS and IBM application servers. JSP is definitely best if your running a linux or unix server, and should work more reliability over all. It can take a bit of work to configure tomcat to work with Apache though.<br /><br /><b>4-</b>because Linux, Apache tomcat is free, you can develop you own jsp website without having to pay a dim.<hr /><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript"><!--<br />google_ad_client = "pub-1992959012969302";<br />/* 468x60, created 4/29/09 */<br />google_ad_slot = "5956444892";<br />google_ad_width = 468;<br />google_ad_height = 60;<br />//--><br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript"<br />src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"><br /></script><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5539171960236621032-8343074079178640842?l=asp-vs-jsp.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>nayes84http://www.blogger.com/profile/03827391483575430182noreply@blogger.com2
