A very basic question - I've used this before but have now forgotten.
If I want to use a statement in immediate mode such as
SET('foo',2+2)
what additional code or settings must I add to tell the compiler that this is an Activ statement and not normal HTML text (eg should it be enclosed within script start/end statements)

To elaborate on my question above.
Take the example of a control statement
Suppose I want to show 'YES' or 'NO' in page1.htm of a book depending on whether the month is January or not using a control statement such as
IF({compilemonth}=1) set (var,"yes" ) ELSE set (var,"no" ) ENDIF
Would I have to put this control statement in an ON Start script, with var being a global type variable which I then refer to in page1.htm ?
In other words I can't put the control statement directly into page1.htm ?

Here's another attempt to explain what I'm trying to do.
It's quite simple.
Depending on the value of a rebranded field I want to provide a link either to URL1 or URL 2 in the book.
It seems that I can only do the test in, for example, a start script. I would then need to store the required URL in a variable to be used later. But is there a concept of such a (global) variable ?

Activ Variables are persistent. They last for as long as the ebook is running
What you want in HTML is something like
A HREF="#!myscript.as"
And myscript.as contains something like (this may have errors)
