I am doing some last minute cramming and research on some dump questions/answers in preparation for my test on July 19th. On most of these questions I have seen multiple conflicting answers, and I would appreciate any input. I know that most of these have been addressed here on this forum before so please bear with me.

1) What is Microsofth's preferred server side scripting language called?
a) Active Server Pages (ASP)
b) Internet Information Server (IIS)
c) VBScript
d) ActiveX Server Extensions (ASE)

Some say "C", some "A" Is there a consesus of opinion on this question?

2) Based on speed and cost, which internet bandwidth link type would be the best choice for a small ISP serving 100 dial-up users?
a) 56K
b) T1
c) T3
d) ATM

Most of the dumps and many of the tests I have seen say "A" and a few people say "B"
I personally find it hard to believe that 56k would be adequate. Any opinions?

3) If you want to play streaming video on your site, what is the best technlogy to use?
a) Flash
b) Acrobat
c) Real Player
d) Quick Tiime VR

Again, I have recently seen discussion on this question without a concrete answer. My opinion would be "C" and I base this on my research that states Real Player "...enables users to listen to streaming audio, streaming video..." and my info on Flash does not mention video at all. Any help on this matter will be GREATLY appreciated.

4) If you have no connection to the network, what can you test on the browser?
a) client side script
b) server side script
c) server side includes
d) nothing

5) What puts a cookie on a client?
a) JavaScript
b) Perl

6) What would slow down performance on a web site?
a) Cache size
b) Client ram
c) Server ram
d) Connection to the internet

I don't know whay I have such a problem with this question.


I have many more questions but they will have to wait for another day. Thanks, in advance, for your input and help with these questions.

1) Answers is ASP. VBscript can be used as the client side scripting language. It is now widely used because it is only understood by MS Internet Explorer.

ASP is a scripting language that is inserted in web pages just like HTML, but before the server such as IIS server returns the page to the client, it reads the ASP code and executes necessary instructions, inserts the resulting HTML and returns the page. The resulting page will not have ASP code in it because it will be replaced with the HTML code be the server.

The server looks for ASP code in the pages. THe ASP code starts with the <% tags.

3) Streaming video I believe can be played using Real player and Quick Time.

I would go with Real Player becase it is number one in client support.

4) If you have no connection, you can still test client side scripting, like JavaScript.

JavaScsript is inserted completely into the HTML. There is no need to have HTTP server to test JavaScript. You can just write the JavaScript code and open it in the browser to test it.

5) JavaScript has the function of setting the cookie. While it is possible to write the code in PERL to set the cookie, it is technically will not be set by PERL. PERL will simply pass the instructions to the HTTP server to set the cookie.

6) While all of the above will slow down the performance, I think the answer they looking for is RAM on the server. Connection, Ram on the client can vary on each client. Cache is not as important for the HTTP server.

RAM on the server has more affect on performance than even the speed of CPU. I have read enough books about HTTP servers to learn that.

All these and more are answered in my online practice exam for I-NET+ on

Thanks i_dOtcOm and Webmaster for your input and answers to my questions. As usual there are conflicting answers but I have a pretty good idea of which is correct, and it will help me as I do more research.

Anybody else out there got some ideas? I welcome any and all who have an opinion.

The answer is ASP - Active Server Pages are server-side, and VBScript is client side. I found my answer while reading Chapter 8 of the i-Net+ Study Guide.

Good Luck on the exam!

Thanks SPerk!

I am now in the process of doing my last minute cramming and research. Thanks for your answer to the ASP -vs- VBScript question. After doing some more research, I agree with your answer.

Thanks again.

4) If you have no connection to the network, what can you test on the browser?
a) client side script
b) server side script
c) server side includes
d) nothing

A - Have you ever saved a web page to your hard drive and then viewed it when you were offline? In effect, you are viewing web pages without a connection to a network when you do that. The client is the browser, so you would be able to test those scripts.

Good luck!
