I use ASP!
All depends on what you are trying to do. ASP is a server side language. The
same way you can not auto-generate ASP code from an ASP page(because it
only passes once trough the server), you can not do it with XSLT, unless you
find a way to passe it trouhg the ASP processor before send it to the clien.
ASP is not recursive. you can not (at least I don't think so) do something
like:
<% Response.write "<%=Response.QueryString(""TEXT"")%>"
it only write to the client <%=Response.QueryString("TEXT")%>, not the value
of the Response.QueryString("TEXT")
to do that, the asp page would have to pass trough the asp processor twice.

being generated through an XSLT file? Does it involve 'overloading' the
XSLT file with ASP code - i.e. writing some ASP code within the XSLT file?
I have seen some code like the following:
