ASP Simple Scripts
In the gray boxes below, you will find some ASP code. This code has both ASP and HTML components. In the pink box I have the HTML code that your browser sees.
| Today's date and time is: <% = now %> |
| Today's date and time is: 2/12/2012 1:52:15 PM |
If you would like to have just the date, you can use the Visual Basic Long Date (vblongdate) format as below.
| Today's date is:
<% =formatdatetime(now(),vblongdate)%> |
| Today's date is: Sunday, February 12, 2012 |
The above scripting is being done with VBScript. As stated before, ASP is more a "container" than a scripting language. ASP can handle VBScript, JavaScript and Perl script. The newer ASP.NET can also handle versions of the C programming language.
You can also collect information about a visitor to your web site. Below is an example of this
| Your IP Address is: <% =Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_HOST")%>
Your Internet Browser is: <% =Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT")
%> |
Your IP Address is: 38.107.179.209
Your Internet Browser is: CCBot/1.0 (+http://www.commoncrawl.org/bot.html) |
There are many of these little scripts and an assortment of formatting options. You may visit the sites listed below to see examples.
