I am pretty new to using VBScript in ASP, I usually use JavaScript, so this error I don't understand.Here is the error:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0400'Expected statement/testing_grounds/gate.asp, line 3Option Explicit;^
And the code:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="65001"%><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><% Option Explicit; %><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">	<head>		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />		<title>Site-Lite™</title>		<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="sl_main.css" />		<style type="text/css">			a {color:#FFFFFF; text-decoration:underline;}			#horizon {width:100%; height:1px; top:50%; overflow:visible; position:relative;}			#container {width:990px; height:315px; margin-left:0px; top:-157px; position:relative;}			#logo {background-image:url(sl_images/login_logo.gif); width:90px; height:315px; float:right}			#right_box {width:445px; height:240px; padding-top:75px; background-color:#6ecff7; float:right; text-align:center;}			#left_box {padding-left:130px; padding-top:120px; width:315px; height:195px; background-color:#6ecff7;}		</style>	</head>	<body>		<%' Retrieve and Condition Login Data			Dim form_name, form_pass			form_name = Trim(LCase(Request.Form("usernameFM")))			form_pass = Trim(LCase(Request.Form("passwordFM")))			If IsNull(form_pass) or IsNull(form_name) Then				Response.Redirect("login.asp?wtp=1")			End If			Response.Write(form_name & " " & form_pass)		%>	</body></html>

Any help is greatly appreciated.I should mention, that when I take out "<% Option Explicit %>" it works just fine.Thanks! :)

Try moving it above the doctype (I'm not sure if there are restrictions on where it goes, probably not though) and definately remove the semicolon, VB doesn't use semicolons. Or logic. Or reason. Much like the dark side, anger, fear, and agression are the tools of VB.
