running ASP inside VBscript

05-02-2004

hi,

is it possible?

i tried this and it does not work:

sub main()

<%

%>

end sub

I want to run ASP in a subroutine if that is possible.

thanks

VBScript IS ASP (in a sense anyway)...... tis what you use to write asp
pages ;o)

In what context?

ASP code is only executed by a webserver processing an .asp page - it recognises the extension and
passes it to the ASP script parser that then executes the code and passes the resultant document
back for further processing and to be served to the web client.

You can't mix server- and client-side script like that. In addition, this
has absolutely NOTHING to do with databases. Please use more care in
choosing your groups.

Well... no... Vbscript is one language that ASP supports. There are two...
VBS and JScript. With ASP.NET, you have C#.NET, J++.NET, VB.NET, C++ and C
to play with as well.

Actually, it is more than two (e.g. perlscript, basically any COM-compliant
language)... but only those two are in mainstream use.

You have the ASP code markers the wrong way round. Here's an example
that works. :

<html>
<body>

<p>With Response.Write
<%

Sub f1
Response.Write "Woof bark donkey"
End Sub

f1
%>

<p>With nesting
<%

Sub f2
%>
Woof bark donkey
<%
End Sub

f2
%>

</html>

Be warned though that this coding style can esily become unreadable.

PS - and ditch VBScript in favour of JScript

You might want to explain why. Or else you might as well tell him to ditch
his ranch for a colonial and his Toyota for a Honda.

Well, I really see no convincing argument that dictates that everyone
running VBScript should ditch it for JScript.
