Language for ASP.NET

[Tumurbaatar S.]

Hi all!
I'm going to develop web app-s in ASP.NET and wondering what language,
C# or JScriptNET, to choose for this. I have some experience on writing ASP
pages with JScript and Win32 app-s with C++. Now I have to start quickly
write
web app and, it seems, C# may take more time to learn than JScript. Or not?
And, is there any disadvantage if I choose JScriptNET for web?

Thank you

I've never seen examples in JScript.Net, and there are a a lot in VB.Net and C#
(but maybe I looked in the wrong place). Maybe a factor to consider?

I'm not familiar with JScript.Net but it might be different from the JScript you
are used to. How that compares to the (big) difference between VB6 and VB.Net
I don't know (maybe someone else?).

If you already know C++ and JScript, the C# syntax is not that difficult to
master.

none of MS editing tools support javascript.net (nor are there any in the
next release). if you are using non-ms tools, then javascript.net is great,
otherwise c# is an easy switch.
