My guess is that Now() is a VBScript function. Apache::ASP
under mod_perl supports ASP with perl scripting only.

There's quite a few Time modules in CPAN. Apache::ASP
requires HTTP::Date, so you could use that like:
<% use HTTP::Date qw(time2iso); %>
<head><title>Hello World</title></head>
Hello World! The time is <%= time2str() %><br>
Hello World! The time is <%= time2iso() %>
for this output:
Hello World! The time is Mon, 22 Nov 1999 01:16:10 GMT
Hello World! The time is 1999-11-21 17:16:10
Not the use of <%= %> vs. your use of <% %> to insert
values into the ASP output. <% %> is used to run code blocks.
