To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:
Option A) ASP does not depend upon which browser the viewer is using. - This option is correct because ASP is a server-side scripting language, which means that it is processed on the server before being sent to the client's browser. The client's browser does not need to interpret or execute ASP code, so it is independent of the browser.
Option B) ASP code does not show up in the source code; thus, the code is protected. - This option is correct because ASP code is processed on the server and the resulting HTML is sent to the client's browser. The client can only see the HTML generated by the ASP code and does not have direct access to the ASP code itself.
Option C) ASP does not download with the page to the viewer. - This option is correct because ASP code is processed on the server, and only the resulting HTML is sent to the client's browser. The ASP code itself is not downloaded by the viewer.
Option D) ASP can easily interact with a database. - This option is correct because ASP has built-in features and libraries that allow easy interaction with databases. ASP can connect to databases, retrieve data, manipulate data, and perform other database operations.
Based on the above explanations, the correct answer is E) All of the above. All of the options mentioned (A, B, C, and D) are advantages of ASP over JavaScript.
