trq Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 You might want to define which version of asp your talking about. Are you talking about the newer .NET framework implimentaion commonly programmed in C# or VB.NET or the older asp 2.0 commonly developed in vbscript or jscript?

gazfocus Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Erm..... no idea? basically, I have been asked to redesign my churches website and the guy that did it before me has included a CMS and a few other features in ASP (such as events that delete themselves after that date) I usually use PHP and have never done anything in ASP. Is it possible to do the events feature in PHP? (I can manange making a php cms). The website is www.kirkbyjubilee.org.uk (you may be able to find out what version of asp it is, but I honestly have no idea).

trq Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 It uses the old asp file extension so it is likely to be asp 2.0, which pre dates .NET. Its asp/vbscript you'll want to learn. I usually use PHP and have never done anything in ASP. Is it possible to do the events feature in PHP? (I can manange making a php cms). Anything asp can do php can do, and usually better (easier). Its just a matter of getting php installed on what is obviously an IIS server. As for ebooks, sorry I can't help you. I programmed asp 2.0 (vbscript) for about 4 years before switching to php though. It is actually a very simple language but also doesn't have half the functionality of php, meening you need to do alot of work yourself.

RichardRotterdam Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 It's most likely VB it was pretty much my first language I used. The tutorials on w3c schools are descent enough. http://www.w3schools.com/asp/default.asp Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/118476-looking-for-an-asp-for-beginners-ebook/#findComment-610562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
