Are there any back-end (possibly) portable programs that will host .asp pages? &nbsp;Or free .asp hosts that anyone knows of?<br />
<br />
I am studying .ASP, but do not have a web host that I want to purchase to host the .ASP pages. &nbsp;I am using Visual Studios 2010 with VB.net and studying up on how to use .ASP to program functional pages.<br />
<br />
I have background in interface programming for Windows GUI programming, but am now integrating into Web Programming, and would like to test out some database driven .ASP projects, but don't necessarily want to purchase a domain to host these test projects since they are just learning projects.<br />
<br />
Any advice is appreciated. &nbsp;Thanks.

.ASP project - How can I host it?

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications
