I have been reading a book on JavaScript that is mostly for the
client-side, however, I'd like to learn the language from the
server-side, is there a book anyone could recomend?
TIA

From my own knowledge, JScript (MS implementation of ECMA script) for
ASP server side is identical to JScript in the browser (although the
Sun One implementation of JScript in its Chilisoft ASP software has
some bugs).

The additional things you need to learn about are not JScript as such,
but the host objects (Application, Session, etc) provided by the ASP
environment, and general ASP scripting techniques (common to whatever
language you use for ASP). Look for books relating to ASP, or ask in
an ASP newsgroup.
