.NET General Question

If I design a web site using Visual Basic .NET with ASP will anyone who wants to view the web page have to download the .NET framework? Also, will I have to have a .NET server to serve the page?

Sorry for the generic question. I haven't been in VB since 5 and a little in 6. But I have to do some research on web dev and I'm looking into it. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Hey tomed for future reference please post web questions in forum855. To answer your question no and no. A page built in asp.net needs to have the framework on the server. Anyone viewing the page is served simple html with a mix of javascript in some cases. You don't usually write either the html or the javascript. It is generated for you by the framework depending on what your code is doing.

As for the server you can see the requirements to server aspx pages here.
