How do i set ASP variable values inside Javascript? This code below doesnt work??

Am i missing something?

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

if (acrobat.ver5)
{
    // if Acrobat 5.0 or newer is installed, do Acrobat 5.0 stuff.
    document.write("Acrobat V5 + is installed")
    <%inst_pdf="yes"%>
}
else if (acrobat.installed)
{
    // do older Acrobat stuff
    document.write(acrobat.version);
}
else
{
    // Acrobat is NOT installed. Do something else.
    document.write("Acrobat is NOT installed.")
    <%inst_pdf="no"%>
}

</script>

Code:

if (acrobat.ver5)
{
    // if Acrobat 5.0 or newer is installed, do Acrobat 5.0 stuff.
    document.write("Acrobat V5 + is installed")
    <% = "inst_pdf =\"yes\";" %>
}
//etc.
