RE: Can tomcat do ASP in VBScript

[Rob Tanner <rt...@cheshire.onlinemac.com>]

Halcyon makes a server called iASP which is an ASP server with VBScript 
and such.  However, it is actually a servlet and should run just fine under tomcat.  Also, since it is a servlet, IIS and even windows is not 
a requirement.
