VBscript parsing in IIS

[AT]

I have the ASP page

<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Option Explicit

Response.End

A = b
%>

On some servers I get parsing error on some I don't
Error says that variable A is not defined.

This is understandable but the script is not even supposed to get to A = b
line
because of Response.end

So there is some setting somewhere responsible for parsing.

Any ideas? please share.

Anatoli:

At compile time, the VB compiler will tell you about the "A=b"
statement, because it's looking through the whole file( and you have Option
Explicit on ) for errors. At runtime it would skip "A=b" because of
response.end, but not at compile time.

Why not put
Dim A as String = b
0r
Dim A as String
A=b
...and save yourself the hassle?

Try running this page with option Explicit and with response.End

Most probably it will not give error on your machine.

And then if you can explain me why I'd really appreciate it
