Why does The Daily Click use .asp??? It's many other formats that are much more secure and better than .asp. Is there a spesial reason that you guys use .asp?

Maybe the programmers who made the site prefer asp to other languages, i don't know myself...

i guess its just a matter of webdesigner's preference, server options etc, e.g. if you had an apache server you'd have to choose PHP over ASP.
and i think which language is "better" comes down to a matter of opinion and what you specifically want to do.

There really isn't much wrong with asp, except php is much better but, imo asp is easier to use with databases etc. (what i've tried with it)

"if ASP is worse than how do servers justify charging so much for ASP support"
They don't. I don't pay that much for KlikMe.

You rarely choose a server side language, it's whatever your first host supports that you learn, and thereafter you go and find hosts that support that language so you don't have to change all your existing scripts.
General points:
1. If you have a Windows server then it's very likely to have ASP installed with the web server = can't be bothered to install anything else
2. PHP is both free, crossplatform and not Microsoft = good
3. Cold Fusion costs way too much = bad
4. I'm still waiting for Perl 6

is it a macromedia invention? i know they enjoy coming up with their own languages. (e.g. action script in flash)

Yes, that's why it costs so much
Edit: It wasn't a Macromedia invention, they bought it off of somebody else so they could bump up the prices Edited by the Author.

But you dont need a special editor to write it, it can be written in an txt file, just like html.

you can write PHP and ASP in notepad as well. i use dreamweaver for PHP as it has syntax highlighting and line numbering which are very useful.
