Hi Kat,
I currently get someone else doing the ASP for my site for me, but he is a little slow to say the least!
I do the HTML and he adds the ASP bits, like news posting and databases for articles.
I managed to do the snitz forum, but there was virtually NO ASP editing at all!
The site is www.unique-hardware.co.uk and the forum is www.unique-hardware.co.uk/forum/default.asp and the beta site for the main site is www.james.liquidonline.co.uk which is where you will find the beta site in HTML, as the ASP is on someone comp at the moment being debugged...
I'll keep everyone posted with when the site goes live, we're hoping for a this Saturday launch, whether or not this will happen is anoter matter!!
Right, enough of that...
Is ASP just like coded into the HTML? So, fi I wanted a ASP news script, I would put that in a HTML table?
Also, how hard are things like nre scripts and admin scripts adding news and the articles? Also, how would I setup the database to do this! and how would I make a database connection!!

Hey James. Welcome to Snitz. This is a good place to learn how to program in ASP (it's how I figured it out, and they haven't been able to get rid of me since )
ASP is a server processed language which allows you to control what gets outputed to the user. You can control items such as layout, visible properties, etc. What we do here is build the HTML based on the ASP conditions. Thus is you wanted a news script, you would use ASP to build the HTML table which contains the news.
The sites that Kat provided are a good place to start, but since you are in a time crunch, you can check http://www.planet-source-code.com (I think that's the address)
