What is the difference between <%%> and <% =%>?

Question

I tried to find the difference on Google.

BUT

I can’t search using << <% %>' , maybe the reason <% is HTML TAG

Now I think that there is no difference between <% and <%= .

Answer 1

<% %> executes code between two brackets.

<%= %> returns the value between two brackets.

Example:

 <% Response.Write("Hello.") %> 

against

 <%= "Hello" %> 

Answer 2

<% %> and <%= %> are usually server-side scripts, the difference in the first case does not display the value on the page unless you explicitly use the print function, and the second will automatically

Answer 3

Are you talking about ASP? If so, then <%%> should hold the code on the server side, and this & lt;% =%> is equivalent to Response.Write ().

Answer 4

They are usually called beasts. These specific are used by ASP.Net or ASP Classic. <% %> stands for server-side code, and <%=<Something%> <% %> stands for <% Response.Write(<Something>) %>

Answer 5

If you want to display the current date on the page, you can do one of the following to write the date to the document. In the first example using <% %> you need to explicitly use Response.Write .

 <% Response.Write(DateTime.Now.ToString()) %> 

and in the following there is no need to explicitly write Response.Write

 <%= DateTime.Now.ToString() %>
