run .asp in XP Home

[Karen Johnson]

I am taking an ASP (Active Server Pages) class and I need
to be able to open an .asp file from Internet Explorer in
XP. At school we have 2000 and if you save the .asp file
in C:intepub/wwwroot you can open them in explorer using
http//:localhost/filename.asp. How can I do this in XP?

With XP Pro which includes Microsoft IIS server, no problem. IIS is not
part of XP Home and I understand it is impossible to make it work. I
therefore would assume that the components to make ASP pages work are
also missing and may not work.

Perhaps you can ask your instructor about this.
