This makes it easier for you to understand how ASP works.
ASP Uses VBScript
Open the Visual Basic Editor ( see Opening the Visual Basic Editor) Click Insert - Module to add a new Module: Copy and Paste the following code in the new module: Sub hello MsgBox 'Hello World!' End Sub To obtain: Click on the green “play” arrow (or press F5) in the Visual Basic toolbar to run the program.
The default scripting language in ASP is VBScript.
A scripting language is a lightweight programming language.
- A 'Hello world' program is a computer program that outputs 'Hello World' (or some variant) on a display device. The first known version of this program comes from Brian Kernighan's paper A Tutorial Introduction to the Language B from 1972 (chapter 7).
- Hello World VBA- Writing Your First Macro – Step 4: This is called a sub procedure where you will write the code as per your requirement. Our requirement is to show a message as “Hello World!” to do this write following line in the procedure.
VBScript is a light version of Microsoft's Visual Basic.
ASP Files
ASP files can be ordinary HTML files. In addition, ASP files can also contain server scripts.
Scripts surrounded by <% and %> are executed on the server.
The Response.Write() method is used by ASP to write output to HTML.
The following example writes 'Hello World' into HTML:
Example
<html>
<body>
<%
Response.Write('Hello World!')
%>
</body>
</html>
VBScript is case insensitive. Response.Write() can be written as response.write().
Using JavaScript in ASP
To set JavaScript as the scripting language for a web page you must insert a language specification at the top of the page:
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<%
Response.Write('Hello World!')
%>
</body>
</html>
This tutorial uses the VBScript scripting language.
More Examples
There is an easy shortcut to Response.Write(). You can use an equal sign (=) instead.
The following example also writes 'Hello World' into HTML:
Example
Visual Studio Code Hello World
<html>
<body>
<%
='Hello World!'
%>
</body>
</html>
HTML tags can be a part of the output:
Example
<html>
<body>
<%
Response.Write('<h2>You can use HTML tags to format the text!</h2>')
%>
</body>
</html>
HTML attributes can be a part of the output:
Example
Simple Visual Basic Code
<html>
<body>
<%
Response.Write('<p>This text is styled.</p>')
%>
</body>
</html>
