[RESOLVED] How to do ASP coding???

[akhileshbc]

Friends,
One of the members had told me that, classic ASP programming can be done in Visual InterDev. It's installed in my computer. But can you tell me how to run or preview the ASP pages that I had created. It also contains databases. So, how can I test that in my computer....???

Thanks in advance..

When you started up InterDev did you select teh webserver to use?

No, I haven't used it. I opened an already made asp page(created in notepad).

Place it somewhere in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\*.asp and browse to it

http://localhost/something/blah.asp
