Microsoft ASP.NET is a set of technologies in the Microsoft
.NET Framework for building Web applications and XML Web services.
ASP.NET pages execute on the server and generate markup such as HTML, WML, or XML that is
sent to a desktop or mobile browser.
ASP.NET pages use a compiled, event-driven programming model that improves performance and
enables the separation of application logic and user interface.
ASP.NET makes building real world Web applications dramatically easier. ASP.NET server
controls enable an HTML-like style of declarative programming that let you build great pages
with far less code than with classic ASP.
Displaying data, validating user input, and uploading files are all amazingly easy. Best of
all, ASP.NET pages work in all browsers -- including Netscape, Opera, AOL, and Internet
Explorer.
ASP.NET pages and ASP.NET XML Web Services files contain server-side logic (as opposed to
client-side logic) written in Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft Visual C# .NET, or any
Microsoft .NET Framework-compatible language.
