HI all

Is there a way to control ASP variables through the use of Javascript?
What I want to do is have a javascript function that is called and then
changes the value of a session variable.  

Here is the way I am tryign to do it:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript>
function eModifyAccount(){

		document.writeln("<% session("cnstMode") = 2 %>")
		document.forms[1].submit()
		return 0	
	}

</SCRIPT>

The problem is that session("cnstMode") gets set to 2 everytime the page is
loaded, not just when the function eModifyAccount() is called.

Any ideas?
