Apache capabilities

I have installed Apache for Windows.  Hosting a web page on my home PC (I have DSL so they gave me a static IP....nice).

There does not seem to be native support for ASP unless you (purchase?) ChilliSoft or something?

What language does ASP support natively (beyond just simple HTML)?

For example:

1)  JavaScript?
2)  Database (ADO, MS Access, SQL Server, MySQL)
3)  Server side scripting (PHP, perl)

What about hooking into my own custom DLL's, etc.?

Thanks,

Tom

Does PHP support custom DLL's, etc?
Does anyone ever write games in PHP?

DLLs are a Windows-specific thing. You could write shell scripts with extension .so and run them with PHP if you have the proper permisisons on your server. I'm also sure there are many games written with PHP.
