varied results with Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")

[Laura]

At two different points in my website I have used a file
include to display a list of hyperlinks on a page rather
than saving the list of links in two different places.

To determine the paths for the links I use
Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME") to find out which
page I'm currently on and use an if statement to assign
the beginning part of the relative path.

My problem is that this:
'------------------------------------------------------
currentPage = Request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME")

if instr(currentPage, "loginresponse") > 0 then
addToPath_forFirm = "firm/"
addToPath_forTea = "tea/"
else
addToPath_forFirm = ""
addToPath_forTea = "../tea/"
end if
'-------------------------------------------------------

returns as TRUE for me at my computer and FALSE for the
person testing the site, though when I response.write the
currentPage variable to the screen we both get the same
output.

Help??

TIA

The other person is probably SHOUTING THE URL IN THE ADDRESS BAR OF HIS
BROWSER. lcase your comparisons or specify a text comparison in your Instr
function. (Default is binary.)

Thank you both. I will use your suggestions. In the
meantime, it magically started working again for my tester.
