Incorporating Visual Basic code on a website

[rutan]

If I own FrontPage 2003, can I write and deploy Visual Basic code blocks to
my website?

Or do I have to purchase Visual Studio or Visual Basic .NET 2003?

None of the above.

If you want to do server-side prgoramming, you might want to look at ASP
with Visual Basic Scripting Editioin (VBScript). VBScript is the default
scripting language for ASP. As it is scripting, it needs no compiler. You
can edit ASP pages in FrontPage or even Notepad.

So, is ASP similar to shell scripting for UNIX, it not needing a compiler? Or
maybe it's closer to PERL?

Neither. ASP is an ISAPI (Internet Server Application Programming Interface)
that runs on IIS, and uses VBScript at run-time.

Or JScript but usually VBScript is used.
