VBScript not recognised in Web page

TheMSsForum.com: The Microsoft Software Forum

I have developed a web site using asp pages that use both vbscript and
javascript. Run the site on my PC and everything is fine. Ftp to my
web hosting provider which hosts asp pages and look on my site only to
find my vbscript is not recognised. It is treated as pure text so you
see
<% =Request.Form("LoginId") %>. Also see all the vbscript when you
"View Source". I have e-mailed my host provider but thought this may
be quicker!
Any ideas if I have missed something obvious or is it down to the host
provider?
An example of my code:
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Option Explicit
%>
<html>
<head>
<meta NAME="GENERATOR" Content="Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Includes/style.css">
</head>
<!--#include File="includes/cache.asp"-->
<!--#include File="Database.asp"-->

<body>
<table cellSpacing="1" cellPadding="1" border="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="10" align="left"><p align="left">&nbsp;
</td>
<td width="100" align="left"><p align="left"><strong>Enter User
Id</strong>
</td>

<td width="100" align="left"><p align="left"><input type="text"
id="LoginId" name="LoginId" value="<% =Request.Form("LoginId") %>">
</td>
</tr> </table>

</body>
</html>

Is your site hosted on a Windows server?

Sounds like IIS is not picking up and processing pages with .asp extensions.

Have you made sure your page did indeed have an '.asp' extension?
Are the hosting referring to .aspx as opposed to .asp pages [eg. not
processing .asp]?

Please upload an ASP page with just a simple HTML content in it (no ASP
script etc.) and tell us if you get the formatted HTML or just the text
(should be HTML of course).
Now add a small <%%> section to do something like dimension an variable and
see if that works.

Chris.
