While mentioning M$ is this thread might get me lynched I still feel the 
need to mention (esp since I'm forced to live in a M$ shop) Python in ASP. 
I find it very attractive to be able to do 

<%
print >> _out, "<ul>"
for reptile in ["Crocodile", "Python", "Iguana", "Tortoise"]:
    	print >> _out, "<li> %s </li>" % reptile
print >> _out, "</ul>"
%>

or even 

<%
import HTMLgen
print >> _out, UL(["Crocodile", "Python", "Iguana", "Tortoise"])
%>

adding another jelly bean to the shring to MH ly 'yrs
