[Web4lib] learning ASP

[Richard Cox RLCOX]

I agree with Araby on both 4 Guys and on moving to .NET -- as soon as I 
learned it I never looked back, and want/am in the process of upgrading 
our ASP apps up as time allows.

Bookwise, Wrox has several Classic ASP books that are cool.  _Beginning 
Active Server Pages 3.0_ might be a good place to start, though I found 
their ASP 2.0 books better.    Regarding .NET books I've found 
publications by APress to be excellent, though I don't know what they're 
published re: Classic ASP.  You may also have to hit the used or online 
retailers for ASP books, since they've been squeezed out by .NET in a lot 
of bookstores.

Anything by Scott Mitchell, of the 4 Guys from Rolla web site
(http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/).

It would be advantageous if your library could move towards ASP.Net for
new applications. ASP still works, but it is more difficult to learn,
maintain and secure than ASP.Net.
