Asp

Original Post (roughly) -

What is the purpose of <% %> in an ASP page?

I was putting a case statement within an ASP to decide a HTML header, I had to put <% around the case statement, then close mid statement %> to then put the html header in. Is this normal as it seems drawn out and messy so what is <% %> doing.

Now Solved.

<% %> tells the server that the next lot of stuff is ASP code when the page is parsed prior to sending it to the client web browser

So it basically differentiates between ASP code and HTML for the server?
