    This should work, and did in a simple test that I created. Technically,
you should add Response.ContentType = "text/javascript" at the beginning of
your asp file, although IE doesn't get tripped up by its absence. What
browser are you using to test this? Also, I assume that your server is
capable of parsing asp, correct?
