Introduction

With the Classic ASP Framework you will be able to structure your ASP pages in the the same way you would do it using ASP.NET. The Framework is 100% event driven and includes most of the controls found in ASP.NET such as the TextBox, Label, GenericHTML, DropDown, CheckBox, CheckBoxList, RadioButtonList,DataRepeater, DataList, DataTable and MORE!

Background

So, why did I take the time to do this, you may ask?, specially when ASP.NET is so great and does everything you need. Well, the main reason is because I work as a consultant and there are still quite a bit of ASP websites around that require maintenance and support. After I learned .NET I felt in love with it and I did not want to code in any other way anymore. So I decided to take the most important pieces of it and create a simmilar one on Classic ASP.
The main benefits are:
  • Coding takes a lot less time, is more readable and easier to maintain.
  • Event driven model.
  • Simplifies the migration to ASP.NET.

    Wow. The Sample code is great. Used the example to display a section of a database to test. Took only long enough to write the SQL code. Wish you had a list of **all ** the features that could be tweaked.. Have been playing with sizes, shapes, colors etc..
