ChiliSoft Inc has released a beta version of its Chili!ASP (Active Server Pages) for Sun Solaris with Apache HTTP server support. The company claims ASP has become a popular platform for building dynamic web sites, estimating that half a million developers and 500 companies are producing ASP components and applications. But the titan in the market is Microsoft Corp, which built ASP as the application server framework for its Internet Information Server (IIS) on Windows NT. á
