Can't seem to make server-side VBScript work
Try this instead:
<html>
<head>
<title>start</title>
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 3.0">
</head>
<body>
<p>start</p>
<p><%Response.Write "<B>middle</B>"
%></p>
<p> </p>
<p>end</p>
</body>
</html>
You need to read up on VB script syntax and get familiar with objects,
properties, methods, etc. (so do I :) Then you can script to your hearts
content!
