I spent a good chunk of the day creating a ASP classic form.

1. The language is ugly. There does not seem to be power that Perl exudes, the easy of use of PHP, or the intrinsic  structural qualities of Java/Python/C#. Lame.
2. Finding tutorials that are well documented is not easy. Hell, finding documentation of any sort was non-trivial.
3. I want to meet the crackhead that came up with ODBC connection string, and kick his ass.

The reason for this work is that Authentix (actually Web Quota) is a stinking pile of dog turds. The documentation seem to be to designed to get users to buy a support contract.

Why– oh why– does Olive not work on Windows server 2003? ASP.net seems to be a decent language.
