MS has a product called J++ (1.1) that I use to develop servlets. I use to
run all my servlets on IIS. (I use Apache now - IIS is a resource pig.) Just
because a shop is MS only doesn't have to mean no Java.
Sure, you can build dynamic web sites with ASP. You can write DLLs with VB
too, but what's the point? :-)
I've been developing dynamic web sites for about 3 years now. I would use
servlets instead of ASP any day.
If you would like to see a servlet that spits out dynamic GIFs, take a look
at
