Request.QueryString

S

Sonny Sablan

Why doesn't this work? And how do I do something similar to this. I want to actually build the value into a hyperlink on the receiving page.

<script runat=server>
Dim Cat As String = Request.QueryString("CatID")

</script>

<HTML>
<BODY>

<%Response.Write(Cat)%>

</BODY>
</HTML>


Thanks

Sonny

Why don't you go the ASp.NET way and use a HTML control or a HyperLink
control?

Just a guess, but it probably interprets the part between the scripts as Javascript, but the Response.Write(Cat) as VBScript. I would suggest putting them both together, there is no reason to separate them. do something like:

<%Response.Write(Request.QueryString("CatID"))%>

and just ditch the script tags and the stuff between them. Note: I am just assuming this from what I can tell from your code, but if you are an ASP programmer rather than an ASP.NET programmer, you might get more help at the following newsgroups:

microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general
microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.db
microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.components
