Thats what I thought, but the appearance of the link looks like this
1234567890 ">
and I click the number and it is blank
Main Topics
Browse All TopicsI know nothing about asp...well...thats a lie. I know enough to trace and find what I am looking for and to be dangerous. I am given this asp page that has this line:
<!--webbot bot="DatabaseResultColumn"
Basically it is a cell in a grid/table and displays a 10 digit number which is a pager number. This is the statement that creates the 10 digit number
<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"PAGE
I was wondering how I turn that into a link. I tried doing this

Let's compare what you wrote and what you got:
<a href="http://www.mysite.co
http://www.mysite.com/scri
It looks to me that
=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"PAGERN
is not being evaluated.
I don't believe that it is the double quotes as you have your call within the <% %> delimiters. Let's build this up one step at a time. What do you get if you do this on its own?
<%Response.Write(FP_FieldV
Once we get this working, we can move on to getting it in your link.

Okay, next step:
<a href="http://www.mysite.co

I noticed something strange. In your original, you had this:
http://www.mysite.com/scri
are you calling an .htm page or a .asp page? I don't think the former will work if you are trying to execute a script.
FtB
it is an htm page
The original
<a href="http://www.mysite.co
Does not work, it opens another browser window but only displays a plain white page. No error message, and it appears the link had not been passed to it.
<a href="http://www.mysite.co
Does work, goes to the script.htm page, and the field in the form is filled in, but I need target="_blank" to work with the link.
Okay, so try this:
<a href="http://www.mysite.co
The first question I have is does this link appear correctly on the page, and if you click on it, does it launch the new window?

What do you end up getting? Your syntax looks correct...
