Christian Sent: Monday, October 23, 2000 9:32 PM To: Jim Weeks Cc: Nitebirdz; bv@wjv.com; freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Best alternative to asp What most people miss is that ASP != ASP. I use the apache::asp module, and it works great. HOWEVER, it is what I call Perl/ASP, meaning the underlying language is perl. Chilisoft's solution is a unix implementation of what I call (visual?)basic/ASP. This is what most people consider asp.
