ASP pages don't work in Netscape

Hello all. I am trying to make my web pages work in both Netscape and Internet Explorer. No problem with .htm or .html, but no good with .asp pages. These look great in Internet Explorer, but when I pull them up on Netscape 4.78 or Netscape 7 I get a page of source code! Instead of text, photos and graphics, I see something like this -- <html>
<head><meta NAME=&quot;GENERATOR&quot; Content=&quot;Microsoft FrontPage 4.0&quot;><style> A:hover {FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: #ffffff; FONT-FAMILY: verdana,arial,sans-serif; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ff0000}A {FONT-WEIGHT: bold; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: #080e8e; FONT-FAMILY: verdana,arial,sans-serif; TEXT-DECORATION: none ---- etc. I am also now using Dreamweaver to see if that helps with the browser compatibility problem. Does Netscape not accept ASP pages? The server I am sending the pages to is running Linux. Does the Linux system not run asp pages - would that be why I can't see the page but just the code. If it was a Windows server, would I be able to see it? What are some alternatives to .asp pages? Is there some type of coding I could insert to make the .asp pages work on both browsers? I appreciate any help on this.





 
It might very well be the Linux server. I've used ASP pages with Netscape without a problem, but they're on a Windows server. You may want to check Linux documentation; if it's an issue, they should have an FAQ that covers it.
