VBScript vs Javascript

I think JS is more flexible. It implements prototype-based OOP which is very handy for me.
It is similar to C, C++ ans PHP (I mean similar syntax) so you can find many examples of code.

What happens when this breaks the Live preview?

As someone who coded ASP in VB and then moved to using it in ASP.Net, I also
endorse the notion of learning C#. When looking for tutorials and code
snippets the vast majority seem to be written in C#.

Agreed, though ASP.net/VB.net seems to be equally as popular (though if
starting from scratch, I'd second the C# suggestion as well).

In terms of performance, one's about the same as the other. Neither is
particularly hard to learn. The big advantage you'll find for VBScript
is that there's a lot of code samples available for you to study and/or
use; there's substantially less for ASP/Javascript.

That said - if you're just starting out and have to learn the whole thing
from scratch anyway, you might have a look at ASP.Net/C#. That's
Microsoft's platform for the future. Development on classic ASP has
ended, and going forward, more and more shops are going the .Net route.
