Calling a function

[rastkocvetkovic]

I'll make it simple

library.asp:
-------
<%
Function TestFunction
TestFunction = 12
End TestFunction
%>
-------

test.asp
-------
<!--#include file=&quot;library.asp&quot;-->
The value is |<% Response.Write(TestFunction) %>|
-------

OUTPUT (no errors)
-------
The value is ||
-------

What could be wrong? Thanks in advance

It should be just 'End Function', not 'End TestFunction' as you have it there.

Otherwise it should work Nick (Web Developer)

not a good idea to having your naming the same refering to the variable and the function. can cause issues! Sometimes starting over can fix a problem at the end

onpnt, ignore if I misread your last post: In this case, assigning a value to the function name is defining the value that will be returned from the function. It's not actually a seperate variable.
