Do you have control over who is hosting the site. If you know you can host
ASP then I would go that way... Have everything server side and then you
shouldn't need plugins user end.
There are plenty of webhub evangelists on this list so I'm sure they will
say different :)
But starting out, you can have a site up and running within days with ASP.
You can do almost everything in a text editor so won't cost you anything
although I think Homesite is the best ASP editor which costs a couple of
hundred. You can host the site in the states with someone like crystaltech
who have plans that support ASP from $40 per month.
