Thomas is right.
ASP is the scripting technology used with IIS.

Many people also use the term ASP and ASP script to refer to the VB
script language or code used in pages on IIS when ASP (the technology)
is enabled. But you can also use javascript (MS calls it jscript)
instead if you want to. And if you install certain addons, you can also
use other scripting languages.

That is customary although you can use Javascript too.

ASP = Active Server Page
Which means the script runs on the server and not the visitors machine.

It is MS JScript, which is the MS implementation of JavaScript
(not client side JavaScript )
