ASP and Javascript together

In this tutorial we will create a regular HTML page with a small javascript code, and we will use this javascript code to include in the page new information from a ".asp" file.

First, let´s check this two pages:


javascript.html

javascript.asp

In the first file (javascript.html) we have include a javascript code in red, and within the code the file name from which we will get information to complete our page (src: source). So that we are asking for information to complete our page (javascript.html) to a different page (javascript.asp). This time we have only include the file name, but we may use the complete url even from a different site (for example: http://www.adifferentsite.com/javascript.asp).

In the second file (javascript.asp) we have include the information necessary to write in the document the word "hello". This time we have use ".asp" extensión for the second page even though other extensions are possible.

The resulting page in our example will be like this one:

javascript.html (resulting page)

So we already know we are able to include a text generated in one page within a different one. As the information we are including can be generate within a ".asp" file, we can add information dinamically by using Active Server Pages.
