Server Side Scripting

Server Side Scripting

Hi All,

Have a look on the following list

ASP

Microsoft designed solution allowing various languages (though generally VBscript is used) inside a HTML-like outer page, mainly used on Windows but with limited support on other platforms.

ColdFusion

Cross platform tag based commercial server side scripting system.

ESP

ESP or Escapade was written in 1997 by Ed Carp, and enjoys wide use in Europe, but has had limited acceptance in the US.

JSP

A Java-based system for embedding code in HTML pages.

Lasso

A Datasource neutral interpreted programming language and cross platform server.

PHP

Common opensource solution based on including code in its own language into an HTML page.

Server-side JavaScript

A language generally used on the client side but also occasionally on the server side.

SMX

Lisplike opensource language designed to be embedded into an HTML page.

SSI

A fairly basic system which is part of the common apache web server. Not a full programming environment by far but still handy for simple things like including a common menu.

Python

Object oriented multi-purpose scripting language. Really good for server-side programming, requires Apache Tomcat engine or similar. Not very well known (never took off, shame).
