ASP to Java conversion

I’ve adopted a new client’s website to redesign and host. I downloaded it
into FP 2003. The problem is that it uses ASP. My Virtual Private Server is
Unix based Free BSD and won’t work with ASP. Short of Moving this client to a
Windows based server (read expensive) is there any way to convert ASP to
Java? I'll appreciate any input.

Best Regards,

Windows based server (read expensive)
Why do you say that?

There are many, very capable Windows hosts who are cheaper than many *Nix
hosts.

Karl,
I haven't run into any ASP to JSP based applications that don't cost
way more than the price of hosting the web site in ASP. There's tons of
really, really cheap ASP hosting out there. Check out
http://www.brinkster.com ( as low as about $5 a month) for one.

Hope this helps,

ASP has no relation to Java....

ASP Compatibility
a.. ASP is a Microsoft Technology
b.. To run IIS you must have Windows NT 4.0 or later
c.. To run PWS you must have Windows 95 or later
d.. ChiliASP is a technology that runs ASP without Windows OS
e.. InstantASP is another technology that runs ASP without Windows
What is an ASP File?
a.. An ASP file is just the same as an HTML file
b.. An ASP file can contain text, HTML, XML, and scripts
c.. Scripts in an ASP file are executed on the server
d.. An ASP file has the file extension ".asp"
How Does ASP Differ from HTML?
a.. When a browser requests an HTML file, the server returns the file
b.. When a browser requests an ASP file, IIS passes the request to the ASP
engine. The ASP engine reads the ASP file, line by line, and executes the
scripts in the file. Finally, the ASP file is returned to the browser as
plain HTML
 
Does every web host require a year at a time, or more? This is expensive for
a nonprofit still trying to get ahead. Any ideas?

No
