Showing HTML Efficiently

Written by Eric Smith, Northstar Computer Systems LLC

In a previous tip, I showed that you can "dump" HTML to the user by simply adding it outside of the ASP delimiter tags. As several users have reminded me, ASP takes a performance hit when you do this. According to Bob Housedorf, the ASP.DLL engine has to parse out the HTML to send it to the user's browser. This takes more time than building a series of Response.Write statements. It will work both ways, but if you're on a busy site, the less time you waste, the better, even if the ASP code is somewhat harder to read.
