newbie ASP question

I'm new to this asp thing but would like to know if it's possible to make a
login page that has a hyperlink instead of a button to actually login?

This assumes that your page has a form with id=Form1 and name=Form1

<a href="javascript:Form1.submit();">Login</a>

or in more modern script

<a href="pleaseenablescript.htm" onclick="Form1.submit(); return
false;">Login here</a>

User input required = client-side scripting and is not asp related.
VBScript should not be used for inTERnet since only IE supports it.
However, you could wrap your HTML/DHTML in server-side VBScript.

The text may wrap but should be all on one line:

Response.Write("<span style=""cursor: pointer; text-decoration: underline""
onmouseover=""this.style.color='#00f'""
onmouseout=""this.style.color='#000'"" onclick=""logon.asp"" title=""click
to logon"">Logon</span>")

HTH...

One little fly in the ointment is that it's for a WAP page - I guess this
means it can't be done?

Ok, I may be WAP coding challenged but ASP code is never seen by any client.
It processes the script and passes the results to the client so why would
WAP have a problem with it if it can read HTML?

Wap needs WML which is more like XML than HTML
