i need to save some asp code into the database so that i can use it in one page the code i want to convert is Code: <% url= Request.ServerVariables("URL") if request("file")="error" then response.Write("There has been an error and this file doesnt exist.<br />") end if%> <form action="/cm/website/file/validate/DownloadManager.asp?file=2&url=<%=url%>" method="post"> <input type="submit" value="Download File" /> </form> Code (markup): I tried to do this but get an error when i try and close the %> this is the code i have that has an error... Code: <% text = "<%url= Request.ServerVariables(""URL"") " & vbCrlf text = text & "if request(""file"")=""error"" then" & vbCrlf text = text & "response.Write(""There has been an error and this file doesnt exist.<br />"")" & vbCrlf text = text & "end if"& vbCrlf text = text & "%>"& vbCrlf text = text & "<form action=""DownloadManager.asp?file=2&url=<%=url%>"" method=""post"">" & vbCrlf text = text & "<input type=""submit"" value=""Download File"" />" & vbCrlf text = text & "</form>" %> <%=text%> Code (markup): any ideas? error is Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0409' Unterminated string constant
try adding text = text & "%\>" at the end i believe when you put %> in a "" for a string you need to escape that > with the \
