There can be only one page directive

Jay

I'm currently reading ASP.NET Unleashed Second Edition and going through the
examples using the ASP.NET Web Matrix. I'm on chapter one doing the
Trace.aspx example and I get the following error message: There can be only
one 'page' directive.

Could someone please explain to me why I get this message? After I received
this message I went to the CDROM and copied the code from there and got the
same message again.

Here is the code from the book/CDROM:
<%@ Page Trace="True" %>
<Script Runat="Server">

Sub Page_Load
Dim strTraceMessage As String
Trace.Warn( "Page_Load event executing!" )
strTraceMessage = "Hello World!"
Trace.Write( "The value of strTraceMessage is " & strTraceMessage )
End Sub

</Script>

<html>
<head>
<title>Trace.aspx</title>
</head>
<body>

<h2>Testing Page Trace</h2>

<% Trace.Warn( "Rendering page content!" ) %>

</body>
</html>

Thank you!
