i am using asp in a php file with the following syntax = <% Response.Write("<br> This is a text from asp tag") %> is this a correct way of writing asp. also as the file is manily php i have used <?php and ?> where ever the code is related to php please advice. Also what i am trying to do is passing a variable from a asp page and in the form action of the previous asp page i am calling a php file by passing a variable name and value and retrieving the variable value using asp. Is this a right way to do. I do not have a choice of using php in the form page as the server where the page resides does not support php.
