I finally displayed asp file in a browser (Chrome) but it shows 'The time is @DateTime.Now' not actual time (e.g. The time is 1/16/2022 04:09:25 PM). Can you please tell me how to display actual time? Please give me references if you have it

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Hello Web Pages</h1>
<p>The time is @DateTime.Now</p>
</body>
</html>

    Hi @ehsung ,
    I think you need use <%=now%> instead of @DateTime.Now.Just like this: 

    <body>  
<h1>Hello Web Pages</h1>  
<p>The time is <%= now%></p>  
</body>
