Daniel,
First, I guess we should clarify in general terms what
some of the technologies are that you mentioned in
your e-mail:
ASP 3.0 - This is the current released version of
ASP that is available from Microsoft. As time
goes on you will see this increasingly referred
to as Classic ASP. ASP 3.0 had VBScript and
JScript as Server-side scripting langauges
integrated into the development platform.
ASP.NET - This is part of the new .NET Developer Tools
from Microsoft. With ASP.NET they have decoupled
the ASP.NET "execution environment" from the
languages. VBScript is a thing of the past now.
Visual Basic.NET is just one of the languages
that can be used by ASP.NET. C#, a renovated
JScript and several other third partly languages
also get mixed into the pot.
VB.NET - Visual Basic.NET is the next evolution of Visual
Basic (supercedes Visual Basic 6.0). It has been
updated to support more mature OO concepts and
leverage the functionality of the .NET Framework.
VB.NET can be used to create web-sites but ASP.NET
is used as the enabler and the execution environment.
.NET - At the core of all these new technology offerings
is something called the .NET Framework and the
Common Language Runtime. This enables a never
before seen level of interoperability between
development environments.
Hope this helps to clarify the alphabet soup.
