embed html in vbscript

[craig322]

Is there a way to do embed html in a vbscript? Here is what I have now that isn't working. What I want to do is to do the html based on the if in the vbscript.

TIA

<% if strBranch <> &quot;Plea&quot; and strBranch <> &quot; &quot; then %>

<select name=&quot;SALESMEN&quot;>
<option value=&quot;ALL&quot; selected>All Salesmen... </option>
<% do while not objRSB.eof
strValueB = &quot;**&quot; & objRSB(&quot;branch_id&quot & &quot; &quot; & objRSB(&quot;outside_sales_no&quot& &quot; &quot; & objRSB(&quot;last_name&quot %>
<option value=&quot;<%=trim(objRSB(&quot;outside_sales_no&quot)%>&quot;><%=trim(objRSB(&quot;branch_id&quot)%>&nbsp;<%=trim(objRSB(&quot;outside_sales_no&quot)%>&nbsp;<%=trim(objRSB(&quot;last_name&quot)%></option>
<% objRSB.MoveNext
loop
objRSB.Close %>
</select>

<% Else
objRSB.Close
End If
%>

Are you getting an error, is so what is the error?

I looked and I can't see why it wouldn't work.

craig322,

the short answer is &quot;Yes&quot;. You're not really &quot;embedding&quot; html in the VBScript. You are merely starting and/or stopping the scripted portion of the page using the script delimiters &quot;<%&quot; and &quot;%>&quot; (w/out the quotation marks of course). Example follows:

<script>
<h1>Some Headline</h1>
<% if someThing = x then %>
<p><i>Paragraph One Italicized</i></p>
<% else if someThing = y then %>
<p><b>Paragraph One Bold</b></p>
<% else %>
<p><code>Paragraph One Monospace</code><p>
<% end if %>
<p>Rest of paragraphs without style</p>

Hope that helps
