[thelist] [ASP] Server.Execute vs. #include

[Ken Schaefer]

Chris is correct.

However, I would add:
a) there are different scoping rules when using <!-- #include --> versus
server.execute()

b) I would not recommend programming where you "include" (which ever way you
do it) large slabs of inline code. It's usually (but not always) an
indication of messy, spaghetti logic. Look at creating code libraries of
reusable routines and/or using classes.

Cheers
Ken
