you can't include asp code into a cf template and have it run. You'll have to use something like cfhttp to call the asp page, have it evaluate its contents and return static html to your cf template.
you can however post or get to the asp code using cfhttp, so you can send it variables if you like. > -----Original Message----- > From: Martin Gill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 22 August 2002 15:40 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [ cf-dev ] CF to ASP > > > Dear All > > I am having to access Asp code from CF 5 and there are a > couple of points which I am unsure of; > > 1.
