No, this is a good NG, however, for specific classic ASP Qs, better ask them in: news:microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general > I clicked on you guys cause I thought it said you specialized > in 'javascript.'

If you are talking about a serverside variable, you will need to submit the clientside information to the server first, and then fill that veriable with the information. > My change is up there in the ulr window (what's that called?)

Never use default Request. use: var a = request.querystring('...'); or [better] use: var a = request.form('...'); > - and then somevariable will hold the data thyat > was stored in variable. Eh? please read this again. What variable and what variable? > SO SIMPLE, they say7 But all I get is undefined. We cannot discuss that, as you do not show your code. Try this: ========== test1.asp ========== <%@LANGUAGE="JavaScript"%> <% var myVar = Request.form('myInfo'); Response.write('serverside myVar contains: ' + myVar ); %> <hr> <form method=post> <input name='myInfo'><br> <input type='submit'> </form> =============================== The first round ofcourse it will show "undefined", the next time the inputted string, even if empty. -- Evertjan.

I clicked on you guys cause I thought it said you specialized > in 'javascript.' I'm sorry, that was my fault. When I looked at your code, it looked to me much more like VBScript than Javascript. I guess I've simply never run across server-side JScript before, and I thought you were in the wrong place. This forum is appropriate for server-side JScript questions, although most of the discussion here centers around client-side ECMAScript implementations. I'd like to make up for the confusion by offering some help; unfortunately, I have nothing to offer. Good luck, -- Scott
