WriteLine with <% %> and double quote signs

I create an ASP file using fso.createtextfile. But how do I avoid
double quotes and <% %> signs when writing to file?

FileAsp.WriteLine("<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252">")
FileAsp.WriteLine("")
FileAsp.WriteLine(" <% =Blah %>")

Thanks

Separate them.


FileAsp.WriteLine(" <")
FileAsp.WriteLine(" % =Blah %")
FileAsp.WriteLine(">")

Oh! And if you want to write a double quote, you have to escape it by
doubling it:
FileAsp.WriteLine("<%@LANGUAGE=""VBSCRIPT"" CODEPAGE=""1252"">")

so source code will be:

<
% =Blah %
>

will it work? maybe I can use command write to append into one line?

No it won't work; but is it such a leap to change my recommendation (which
was done with writing to Response in mind) to
FileAsp.WriteLine(" <" & "%= Blah %" & ">")?

Personally, I would do it like this:

FileAsp.WriteLine("<\%@LANGUAGE=\"VBSCRIPT\" CODEPAGE=\"1252\">")
FileAsp.WriteLine("")
FileAsp.WriteLine("<\%=Blah%\>")

:-) Cruel joke.
Hopefully vunet recognizes javascript vs vbscript.

It's a funny notion, using JScript to write an ASP script in VBScript, but I
have done worse. Like using a web application to generate and submit JCL on
a mainframe.
