| Collections | Description |
| ClientCertificate | Makes us available a collection of values stored in the client certificate that is sent to the HTTP request. It is usually of interest when the client is requesting secure pages through SSL connection. But before using this collection the server should be configured to request client certificates. |
| Cookies | Makes us available all the cookies stored in the client browser for this domain. |
| Form | Collection of all the values of Form element in the HTTP request. |
| QueryString | Collection of variables which are stored in the HTTP query string. Name / value pairs can also be appended to the URL after the end of page name e.g. "http://www.psacake.com/asp_request.asp?author=John+Smith" contains one variable 'author' with a value of 'John Smith'. |
| ServerVariables | Contains a collection of predetermined environment variables plus a collection of all the HTTP header values sent from the client browser to the server. |
