the diference between html, php and asp

[SS19flyover]

At this moment I only know some basic function about html.

but come to php and asp, what is the advantage over html?

Thank you in advance.

php and asp is able to connect, retrieve and store stuff into databases. With asp/php you could code a portion of the website but leave the information portion empty so that a user could update it by themselves.. so no need to have a web designer update the html code manually..

layman,

plain html is static web pages, you type it just like you type a word processor documents, then upload to a server for hosting.

asp and php are server side scripts, ie: u can write program, extract, save data , with the extracted result/processing/save, u then instruct asp/php to generate html on the fly.

php can also run in windowsYes, that is true.

I also hear PHP is much much faster than ASP? For anybody wanting to learn php, I would suggest http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp OR for people with a sense of humor, point your browser here http://www.devshed.com/c/a/PHP/PHP-101-Part-1--Secret-Agent-Man/

Most webhost prefer php in linux server and asp in windows server.
