No reason to buy an older ASP book if that's what you mean. The languages are basically the same, except for VBScript finally being typed, and getting decent error handling. ASP has always been more about integrating COM objects than anything. A tag in cf = com object in asp... The CLR is conceptually just a giant bundle of COM objects with some management stuff tacked on.
Just one aside, ASP and .Net are able to be programmed in more than VB or JS...I've heard some crazy numbers like 30+ languages. CF could be done on top of the CLR even. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Monday, August 26, 2002, 4:27:06 PM, you wrote: BS> Being that I'm finally going to learn some ASP and PHP, I have a quick BS> question regarding ASP and ASP.NET.
