We all must have used the "Scripting.FileSystemObject" progid to create text
files. But only a few know that it can be used for writing all kinds of
files. For example, you can create html files using the filesystemobject.
And why not, you can even write ASP files using an asp file!
That's right! An ASP Code generator.
Here's the complete code of how this can be done:
Just copy and paste the following code into an asp file. Invoke your browser
and request the asp file. Eureka! The file generates its own asp file
(generatedasp.asp) and submits itself.
For any queries regarding this article mail me at elayamanickam@indya.com.
Happy programming!

As businesses grow increasingly dependent upon Web applications to provide services to customers, employees and partners, these complex applications become more difficult to secure. Although traditional security solutions protect Internet infrastructure layers, they do not guard against HTTP and HTML attacks. Many organizations that conduct security testing still deploy applications that allow attackers to manipulate their logic and wreak havoc on their business. To mitigate this risk, development and delivery teams must address Web application security throughout the lifecycle, addressing the many layers detailed in this paper.
