Dynamic case statement

[Tom]

I would like to know if an .asp case statement can contain HTML elements. I
am building an application that I would like to have dynamic choices. The
dynamic part would be built in the a case statment that will output based
upon the value of the option evaluated. This example only shows one case
statement but there are eight case statements.
Thanks for any insight!

<INPUT TYPE="RADIO" NAME="test2" VALUE="IncludeMonthEnd" /></TD>

<!--> Missing record processing in each case statement and the balance of
the eight case statements -->
objRs.MoveNext

You either have to response.write the html strings, or end the server-side
script blocks at the appropriate locations:

either
select case mvar
Case 2
Response.write "<TABLE BORDER=0 WIDTH=700>"
etc.

or
select case mvar
Case 2
%>
<TABLE BORDER=0 WIDTH=700;">
<TR>
<TD align="left" vAlign="top" WIDTH="50%" colSpan=2>Extra Comments</TD>
<TD align="left" vAlign="top" WIDTH="50%" colSpan=2>Include in Month
End Report</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD align="left" vAlign="top" WIDTH="50%" colSpan=2>
<INPUT type=text value=1 name=test1></TD>
<TD align="left" vAlign="top" WIDTH="50%" colSpan=2>
<INPUT TYPE="RADIO" NAME="test2" VALUE="IncludeMonthEnd" /></TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<%
Case 3
%>
etc.
