Replace Mutiple Asp Classoc

The way I know of hashing out code within ASP Classic is <%-- --%>. Would this be correct? Or is there another way?

1. Classic Asp Replace

Removing special characters can be useful if you need to use a resource that does not offer UTF-8 support. You can use this method to replace special chars on a text file, and save its content to a new text file. It is an adaptation from PHP Dev Tips. I think that sometimes it is better to have an. The Replace Function replaces a specified part of a string with a specific string a specified number of times. When you save it as.html and execute it in Internet Explorer, then the above script will produce the following result − Line 1: This is MS VBScript Programming Line 2: This is vbScript.

Use a single quote, like:

ASP Classic uses the VBScript/Visual Basic language, and a single quote is commenting in that; <%-- is nothing (I am not 100% sure though).

Beside ', you can comment lines in the old school way:

Assuming you mean that you have large block of inline code like the below you want to disable:

Then either comment out each line as described in this other answer or other approach is:

1. Create a dummy, empty file called 'dummy.asp' and place it in the same folder.

2. Change the code block to this:

   Note: you need to change only the <% and %>, all other lines can stay intact. Having a src in the script tag will cause the Classic ASP engine to take the file contents instead of taking the script block contents.

Then when you want to uncomment, either do it for each line or put back the <% and %>.

The question says.. ASP classic...

All the above answers are good, but specific to VBScript.

But a classic ASP file can also contain HTML and Javascript
