While you lose performance by having an entire site ASP as opposed to
merely the pages that require it, many sites have SSIs on every page
containing code to check for cookies, session collection item values,
application collection item values etc. If you have a site that is
predominantly ASP with .htm pages included you will have to alter links
and possibly lose a customer hir bookmarks if you wish to introduce
server-side fuctionality to one of the .htm pages. HTH
