If you need the content on your web site to be dynamic, you have a number of scripting options to choose from.

There are two popular ways to create scripts –using ASP (including ASP.Net) or Perl. Both are script languages that can be used to display information on your web pages determined by predefined or input data.

For example, you may have a form on your web site that emails back information to your mailbox for sales enquiries. Once your customer clicks the Submit button, you need the script to do a number of things. These include the creation of an email detailing the data the user has just entered, and returning a thank you page to the user's browser, which might include their name, for example Thank you Miss Davidson, your enquiry is now being dealt with.Miss Davidson being one of the variables entered by the user.

Advantages of Perl
Perl is a very popular scripting language used to power many dynamic web sites. Perls origins are Unix based, but the language now extends across most platforms, including Windows, Mac and Linux, making it extremely versatile.

Advantages of ASP
Many users are now adopting ASP, and the latest ASP.Net framework, as a method of creating dynamic content because of its excellent database integration and versatility on Windows servers. Created by Microsoft, ASP can dig deep into Windows and utilise its resources. Whilst it’s commonly used for basic scripting, the language is powerful and can be scaled to most major projects or applications.
