active goth

A person who has fully committed themselves to the goth subculture and the lifestyle that it entails: leather, buckles, piercings, decorative contact lenses and all. Unlike passive goths, active goths can be identified as goth on-sight.

The elusive active goth can be found at your local Hot Topic. Here we see them walking with a black parasol in their victorian/steampunk casual-wear, petting their plastic ravens and black cats as they go on about the blight of inevitable death and "the man" before they congregate by the hundreds to express their individuality to their goth brethren.

Active Server Pages [ASP]

A server side scripting language developed by Microsoft. While it does outclass Perl in terms of effectiveness and ease of use, php does offer more to the average web developer in terms of reliability, speed, and a shorter learning curve. It is also worth noting that ASP 3.0 comes in two flavours, VBScript and JavaScript.

<%@ language="VBScript" %>
<%
Response.Write("this is ASP")
Response.Write("<br />")
If Request.Querystring("action") = "page1" Then
Response.Write("you selected page 1")
Else
Response.Write("You selected some other page")
End If
%>
