My scripts that use the Text Stream component no longer work with Beta 2 of Active Server Pages (ASP). Has this component changed?

I added server-side scripting to several of my Web pages, but when I view them in the browser, I see all of my script code displayed on the browser. What am I doing wrong?

Why does the code in my Global.asp file seem not to get executed?

I do not want to give execute permissions for the wwwroot folder that contains my default Web page. How do I set up Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) so that my default Web page is an .asp file?

Why do I see strange errors accessing the intrinsic objects after calling CreateObject for my component?

How does Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) know it should pass .asp files to Microsoft Active Server Pages?

If I update files in my wwwroot folder, the changes to these files are not seen until I restart my Web server. Is this a caching problem?
