As your sites (and scripts) become more complex you will find that templates will save you a great deal if time. Here is a small function to get you started.

 Function htmltemp()

  template = "<HTML>"

  template = template & "<TITLE><!-title-></TITLE>"

  template = template & "<BODY>"

  template = template & "<!-body->"

  template = template & "</BODY>"

  template = template & "</HTML>"

  htmltemp = template

  End Function

Test out the function above by using it an ASP page. Below is a sample ASP page using the template function.

<%@ LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>

    

<% thetitle = "HTML Template"

  thebody = "<CENTER> This is the template! </CENTER>"

    

    template = htmltemp()

    template = Replace(template, "<!-title->", thetitle)

    template = Replace(template, "<!-body->", thebody)

    Response.Write template

    

    Function htmltemp()

    template = "<HTML>"

    template = template & "<TITLE><!-title-></TITLE>"

    template = template & "<BODY>"

    template = template & "<!-body->"

    template = template & "</BODY>"

    template = template & "</HTML>"

    htmltemp = template

    End Function

    

    %>
