The traceback explains the problem: Python programs must start with no 
indentation. Even when writing in ASP code-brackets (<% ... %>) each 
code block must be a valid Python snippet.

Also each code block stands alone, so you start afresh with no 
indentation whenever you open a new code-bracket. Try

<%
response.redirect("http://www.holdenweb.com/";)
%>

and see if that works.
