How does ASP code execute? Is it logically, like JavaScript? Or does the server process all ASP code and then send the results to the client?

Example:
<code>
<html>
...
<sript>
var x
x = window.confirm("Name:&quot

</script>
...
<%
'...do functions and stuff...
Response.Write "hello"
%>
</code>

Basically, I'm wondering if the JS will process before the ASP at the end of the file. No, I'm not trying to make the two interact, I'm just wanting to better understand it's processing. Thanks. ~[ cid ]~

As far as I know, if you use Response.Buffer = "False" (IIS3/PWS default) at the top of your asp page then it will proccess it logicly. If you use Response.Buffer = "True" at the top (windows 2000 IIS4 default) then it will proccess it all then send it to the client.

If you don't know the default for a remotely host script, it is best to but it at the top of every page.

I hope this id help full
