[AccessD] Web Applications

If the question was 'hey, I need a system to develop a website', then
yes, you would be absolutely right.

But that wasn't the question, it was what to do to learn web
development.  My point from the get go has been that classic asp gives
you a good nuts and bolts view of how the web actually works.  And it's
not that hard to pick up.

My comments about using VB6 were brought up in the offshoot of 'asp
classic is dead' and 'asp classic sucks and should be dropped because of
ASP.NET'.

Just clarifying,

Drew

Therein lies the problem with the recommendation to go with classic ASP
versus ASP.NET...

You mentioned that you compile your code into a DLL. Now, how would a
beginner know to do that using VB6...much less know what to put in those
VB6
modules and *then* know enough to instantiate the object you just
created
using VB Script on their classic ASP pages?

Not to mention the fact that when you deploy your DLL to the server you
will
have to make sure that it's registered.

Fortunately with ASP.NET you don't have to worry about all those things
because it's a framework and the framework does all the heavy lifting
for
you. Am I right or am I right? :)
