IIS removes the <%..%> blocks before delivering the output to a browser. It
interprets the code between them and outputs the results of the code but not
the ASP code.

Also, you may use <%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"> or <%@LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">, not
interchangably though. There are differences in format and functionality.
However, whatever language you select to use, the VBScript/JavaScript code
in the <% ... %> blocks will be run at the server, not the client. You may
output JavaScript to the browser and that will be run by the browser, not by
the server.

HTH,

Jules
