Active Server Pages
Active Server Pages (ASPs) are Web pages
ASP = server-side scripts + HTML
The appearance of an Active Server Page depends on who or what is viewing it.
• If the Web browser that receives it, an Active Server Page looks just like a normal HTML page.
• However, the file located in the server looks very different. In addition to text and HTML tags, you also see server-side scripts.
This is what the Active Server Page looks like to the Web server before it is processed and sent in response to a request.

How ASP Works?
1. User brings up a Web site where the default page has the
extension .asp.
2. The browser requests the ASP file from the Web server
3. The server-side scripts begins to run with ASP.
4. ASP processes the requested file sequentially (top-down),
executes any script command contained in the file, and produces
an HTML Web page.
5. The Web page is sent to the browser.

ASP vs HTMLASP = HTML + some other stuff!
What is the difference? Basically we are taking the HTML and adding some elements...
• ASP files end with the .asp extension, so the Web server knows what it is.
• ASP files include server-side code that contain instructions for the server.
• Browser can not display your code!
• ASP files provide dynamic information
4
Active Server Pages
Server-side scripts ~ HTML tags.
<%...%> ~ <...>
You can insert server-side scripts anywhere in your Web page--
even inside HTML tags.
<h1> <% = “Hello World” %> </h1>
The server looks inside the ASP tags and runs the instructions, sends the
results

Vbscript - Scripting Language
•Default Language of ASP VbScript
<% @ language = VbScript %> (no need to write!)
• ASP JavaScript
<% @ language = Javascript %>
•General Syntax:
<% object.method “parameter1”, “parameter2” %>
<% response.write “print this out!..” %>
6
ASP Objects
1. Request object, 2. Response object, 3. Server object, 4. Session object, 5. Application Object.
It connects, or relates, these objects to ActiveX Data Objects (ADO)
• Connection object,• Recordset object, • Command Objects.
7
ASP – Request Object
• gets information from client browsers
• submits it to the Web server
<input name = “Email”> <% =request.form(“Email”)%>
It provides the following basic data collection functions;
Form (collects data from fill-in forms by using post
method)
QueryString (same;but the method is get. Appends data to the
URL given in the Action attribute of a form)
ServerVariables (generates HTTP and server information
about a visitor’s site)
Cookies (stored as small text files on client computers
retrieved by the Web server each time
the client browser opened.)
8
Examples – Request Object
<%
for each SV in Request.ServerVariablesresponse.write "<P>" & SV & " = " & Request.ServerVariables(SV) & "</P>"
next%>
<%
for each item in Request.Cookiesresponse.write "<P>" & Cookie & "=" & Request.Cookies(item) & "</P>"
next%>
9
ASP – Response Object
• takes information from Web server
• sends to the client browsers
• redirects the browser to the different URL
• sends cookies to the browser
Examples;
<% Response.Write “Hello World. <BR>” %>
<% Response.Redirect (“page.htm”) %>
10
ASP-Server Object
• Sets the maximum amount of time a script can run before it
times out• Takes a string and either HTML or URL encode it• Converts a virtual web address to an absolute path on the server
<%
set connection = Server.CreateObject(“ADODB.Connection”)
%>
11
ASP-Session Object
The process of a Web user’s visit through the pages is called a
session.
• Used to identify users of the application
• Useful for site counters and for login
<% Session(“loggedin”) = “yes”%>
The Web server automatically creates the Session object.
12
ASP-Application Object
Used to store and share information that can be used on the entire application.
To store Web address;
<% Application(“Homepage”) = “http://www.bim.bilkent.edu.tr/~ikinci %>
<a href = “<% = Application(“homepage”) %>”>Home Page </a>
To store the database connection string;<% conn341 = “DRIVER = {Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};”conn341 = conn341 & “DBQ =“ & ServerMapPath(“dbase/db341.mdb”)Application(“connection”) = conn341%>
<% Set conn = Server.CreateObject(“ADODB.Connection”)Conn.Open Application(“connection”) %>
13
ADO - ActiveX Data Objects
ADOs provide a mechanism for the Web-based client/server
application to access various databases.
ADOs are designed to interface with the relational
databases through the Open Database Connectivity
(ODBC).
ADO includes 3 objects; Connection object, Recordset object, Command object.

Variables
Every application uses variables, and ASP scripts are no exception!
But there is no obligation in Visual Basic and VbScript
No need to define the variables and variable types at the beginning of the program. But if you want you can...
If you add the following line after the language info to the page;
<% Option Explicit %> You must declare your variables. i.e. dim number1
dim number2
16
Variables
Basic Variable Types: numeric, alpha-numeric, and logical.
No need to know other variable types, because when you assign a value to a variable, Visual Basic understands your variable type!variable_1 = 15variable_2 = “15”variable_3 = true
If you want to learn type of any variable;
<% variable_1 = 15Response.write vartype(variable_1) ‘it writes 2 to the page%>
List of Variant type variables of the VBScriptvbNull 1 contains no data, vbInteger 2 integer type, vbLong 3 .....
17
VBScript Looping – flow controlsLooping constructs provide the foundation for any application that must repetitively perform a task.Such as adding 1 to a variable, reading a text file, or processing an e-mail message.VBScript and Jscript provide several looping mechanism. For... Next, For each ... in ...Next, Do.. Loop While, Do...While...Loop, Do..Until...Loop, Do...Loop Until..., While ...Wend
conditional operatorsConditional operators, together with variables and looping constructs, for the fundamental building blocks of applications.Such as sending a page to the client browser that consists of the current time and date and a greeting
If..Then, If...then...else, If...then...Elseif...then else, Select...Case, Switch..case

How to Create ASP Pages?
1. Create your web page - basic design - with MS Frontpage
2. Switch to HTML tab.3. Add ASP codes into their respective places.4. Save your file with the extension .asp.
1. Design the followings in FrontPage:

Reponse.Write ( )
Response object is the part of ASP that handles responding to the request of a browser
If you want to display information to Web page Write method of the response object will be used.
<%Response.Write(“Hello World”)%>
NOTE : equal sign (=) is a short-cut of response.write object
<% = “Hello World” %>
22
How to Save ASP Pages?
4. Save your file with the extension .asp.
Write asp extension with the file name.
Select Active Server Pages option as file type. So, you do not need to write file extension.
OR

Another example! (“for – next”)
We want to write “hosgeldiniz” in 5 different font size!

Handling HTML codes in ASP codes
<% response.write “ “ & “ “ & i%>
<% Response.write “<BR>” %>
htmlTuna Tuna<B>Tuna</B> Tuna<font size = “2”>Tuna</font> response.write “<font size = “2”>Tuna</font>“
typeMismatch
27
response.writeresponse.write “<font size = “2”>Tuna</font>“
Handling Error:1st way: Do not use “ “ in HTML! But;
<font face = lucida handwriting> face = lucida?
<%response.write<table width = 100%>%> ?
2nd way: use ‘ ‘ instead of “ “
Examples:Example 1:Adding 2 numbers<%num1 = 40num2 = 30response.write num1 + num2%>
28
response.writeExample 2:finding y
<% a=1b=5c=2y= b*b - 4*a*cresponse.write y%>
<%num1 = 10num2 = 20sq1 = num1 * num1sq2 = num2 * num2sum = num1 + num2response.write sq2 &","& sq1 & "," & sum
Example 3:finding the square of 2 numbers and the addition of their square
29
response.write & if..then..else..end ifExample 4:VAT included Price
<%VAT = 18PRICE = 3000000VAT_INC = PRICE + (PRICE * VAT)/100Response.Write "VAT included price is"& " " & VAT_INC%>
<%num = 89IF num >0 THEN
response.write num &" "& "is a positive number.“ELSE
response.write num &" "& "is a negative number.“END IF%>
Example 5:positive or negative?
30
response.write & if..then..else..end ifExample 6: If a number less than 10, output it's
square otherwise the number only.<% num = 9IF num > 10 THEN
sq = num * numresponse.write sq
ELSEresponse.write num
END IF %>
<% num1 = 3num2 = 5IF num1>num2 THEN
num = num1 - num2ELSE
num = num2 - num1END IF Response.Write num %>
Example 7: Subtract the smaller from the larger
31
response.write & if..then..else..end if Example 8: SNG room 100$ others 150$>
<% room_type = "DBL“num_of_night = 10IF room_type = "SNG" THEN
price = 100 * num_of_night ELSE
price = 150 * num_of_nightEND IFResponse.Write "room price is " & price %>
Example 9: PASS, FAIL
<% final = 50IF final >= 50 THEN
Response.Write "PASS“ELSE
Response.Write "FAIL“END IF%>
