Can you escape in and out of ASP tags like how PHP can exit out of parsing mode? For instance, in PHP, you can exit in the middle of a code block, which is useful if you want to show long chunks of HTML code.
<?php if ($expression == true) { ?>
<h1>This will show if the expression is true.</h1>
<p>I can put lots of HTML code here.</p>
<?php } ?>
