Write

The Write method writes a specified string to the current content output.

Syntax

Response.Write variant

Parameters

variant: The data to write. This parameter can be any data type supported by the Visual Basic Scripting Edition VARIANT data type, including characters, strings, and integers.

Notes

If you do not want to use the default language codepage, output from Response.Write can be encoded using different codepages by setting Response.CodePage, Session.CodePage. For more information, see CodePage and Charset.

Example

The following example uses the Response.Write method and plain HTML to send output to the client.

<H3 align=center>The date is <% Response.Write Date %> <BR>

The following example uses <%= instead of Response.Write.

The date is: <%= Date %> <BR>

The following example adds an HTML tag to the Web page output. Because the string returned by the Write method cannot contain the character combination %>, the escape %\> has been used instead. The following script

<% Response.Write "<TABLE WIDTH = 100%\>" %>

Produces the output:

<TABLE WIDTH = 100%>
