the code between <% and %> is executed on the server, not by the browser. in 
this case, the code is read by the browser as:

function eModifyAccount(){
	document.writeln("")
	document.forms[1].submit()
	return 0
}

because the asp script is executed and since no html is outputed, that gap 
is closed. - Cyanide_7
