Hi

What are the dangers of mixing asp and asp.net? For the .net part of the
site i will need to use the global.asax file but for the asp parts it will
be using the other global. file, is there anyway to get to both use the same
one?

For example i want to convert my homepage to aspx first, but in doing so my
session var that needs to be initialised wont be as it will use the
global.asax and not the global.asa.

Any ideas or reccomendations for the best way of converting from asp to
.net?

Dangers ?
None. They co-exist quite happily.

Communication between ASP and ASP.NET apps might prove to be difficult, though.

Nope.

You can mix ASP and ASP.NET without any dangers.
However, they will not directly communicate with each other or share any
kind of state unless you have custom code to facilitate such matters.
This could do the trick for you:
