ASP Hosting - ASP is a feature of the Microsoft Internet Information Server. Because the server-side script is simply building a regular HTML page, however, ASP can be delivered to any browser. The parts of the code that are to be executed on the server are enclosed within tags. These symbols are referred to as the delimiters for ASP.
TIP: When a delimiter tag is left off, you will get the following error:
Active Server Pages error `ASP 0116`
Missing close of script delimiter/bad_script_tags.asp, line 8
The Script block lacks the close of script tag (%>).
The above error is usually caused by not closing your scripting tag. Many editors now color-code your blocks of code and let you know if you forgot to close a tag.
