Hello, all!

For some reason, I can't get this piece of code to work. The idea is to display today's date "flushed right" of the "Site Portal" cell. Here's the code section I'm using:


<%
Response.Write "<table width=""100%"" border=""0"" cellspacing=""0"" cellpadding=""0"" bgcolor=""blue"">" & vbNewLine & _
"<tr>" & vbNewLine & _
"<td valign=""top"" bgcolor=""green"">" & vbNewLine & _
"<font size=""3"" color=""white""><b> Site Portal</b></font>" & vbNewLine & _
"</td>" & vbNewLine & _
"<td bgcolor=""yellow"" align=""right"">" & vbNewLine & _
"<font size=""2"" color=""blue"">Today is <!--#include file="/dev/getdate.asp"--></font>" & vbNewLine
%>


Here's the error message I'm getting.


Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A0401)
Expected end of statement
/dev/datescript.asp, line 9, column 77
"<font size=""2"" color=""blue"">Today is <!--#include file="/dev/getdate.asp"--></font>" & vbNewLine
----------------------------------------------------------------------------^


Here's the Date extractor javascript --> getdate.asp

All help/suggestions are greatly encouraged and appreciated.

try changing this part:
<!--#include file=""/dev/getdate.asp""-->

you need two double quotes since it's in a response.write

thanks, Nikkol! DJBBIZ helped me out and got the date fixed up. Here's the sample site:

the date is 'flushed right' in the same cell as the "Welcome to..." cell.
