ASP is not the next big thing! The language itself can be consider an old version by Microsoft. The next big thing in Microsoft based scripting language is the ASP.NET. I would suggest that you skip ASP and start learn PHP because it is much more easy and fun to learn.

What ASP and PHP really means is the ability for your page to interact with a database (MSSQL or MySQL). If you use a basic HTML, you won't be able to do that.

You can learn both of this language from w3schools under server scripting menu.

Cheers...
Thanks for that useful link.
