ASP is a web programming language, its used by developers etc, and can be used to make some feature rich, dynamic and high performance sites.
The only problem with ASP is that it will ONLY run on a windows server, when say 80% of servers out there are linux powered, sure you can get an ASP emulator for linux, but you'd need your own dedicated, or your providor would have to installed it, which is unlikely.
I don't know of any real advantages of ASP over php or html as I've never had any experience with it, but drop HTML as thats a web essential, remember php and html can be combined in a web page.

ASP is the most complicated web programming language,
it stands for Active Server Page.
PhP is the second most complicated web programming language,
it stands for Hypertext Pre Processor, meaning before it sends to the client it changes the html etc etc.
php can do many things, it is usually accompanied by an Sql Server like MySQL, which is pretty much a database with tables, more here www.php.net

In fact there is only HTML (HyperText Markup Language).
Different from UNIX-systems early Windows-systems were not able to a handle filename that did not comply to the 8.3 standard. So the extension was shortened from .html to .htm on these systems.
