i have been learning asp from some days and everything is going well.basically i have to develop a forum application in classic asp for my project, so can you guys suggest some good papers.basically i have some experience with php, but no prior experience with asp.

Classic ASP is old, the last stable release was over 14 years ago. You're not going to be able to find a lot of recent papers with good practices, those papers are about ASP.net instead.

i have about 2 months and our school system is ###### .so, i have to do it in classic asp.

2 months is a pretty aggressive timeline for developing a forum in a new language. About the only suggestion I can make is that, if you're already familiar with Javascript, it will probably be easier to use JScript as the language for ASP. The only down side there is that the vast majority of the examples you'll find are written in VBScript instead. I don't understand why everyone flocked to VBScript in ASP when it would seem that JScript is the obviously superior language, but that's what happened.

yeah i'm pretty comfortable with javascript, but i can't use javascript , because vbscript is in our syallabus. thats is the reason i have to develop it in classic asp.

can anyone find some examples, i just am not able to find anything.

You're not going to find a single tutorial that explains how to build the exact application you're trying to, you'll need to break it down into individual steps. Look for tutorials about connecting and using a database, processing forms, logging in users, etc. Break it down into smaller problems.
