Thanks for quick responses. Unfortunately, I get same results with Request.Querystring.Item Data is not coming from a form. It is generated by the program's processing.

There is obviously something basic I don't understand. I need to pass a variable containing a comma delimited string to another asp page for further processing and output. Here's some simplified code that doesn't work. What have I gotten confused about? Nothing is being passed to the browser...

Thanks. I believe I followed what you said after the third reading, and it gave me good information I didn't know before. But it seems to me that the changes you suggest leave me with a new problem, since from the point where I de-dup, I will be working with a different data type (Nonarray vs...

I need to de-dup an array I currently define as DIM ISBN(500). I found nice de-dup code to use, but I'm getting a "type mismatch" error. I put together a simple test case that shows a working and non-working approach, but I don't understand why the explicit Dim won't work or how to...

That took me a long way. Thanks. Both the strings are getting across OK. But I'm still getting a "type mismatch" error on the second pages split line 19. So I don't end up with an array on page 2. I don't understand why. Here's the revised code: PAGE1 ---------------...

I need to pass a textstring and an array from one asp page to another. They are created by program code, not by form input. I am getting various errors, including "type mismatch" even though I have identical Dim statements in each page. Here's my test code. Please tell me what I'm...

No, I can't change the XML. It is a feed from Amazon.com.

I have xml with a field "UsedPrice" which has values like $5.25 and $9.89. I need to select with a filter that returns only items with prices higher than a threshhold, say $3.00. I will want to combine (and) the price filter with other filters, such as...

I'm trying to set up a multiple value filter in xsl for an xml file containing book info. So, for example, I only want to output data when UsedPrice<5.00 and Media=Paperback. I've tried <xsl:for-next select=&quot;ProductInfo/Details[number(substring-after(UsedPrice,'$'))&gt;5.00]> that works...

Tarwn: Thanks. That should do it. Perhaps I'll just break down and stick them in a DB like and create selectbox dynamically as I should have done in the first place. Everybody... thank you. I'm OK now.

Tarwn: Good catch on the missing quote mark! Thanks. Great catch on what's going on. View source does indeed show it being set correctly for &quot;value&quot;, but HOW do I specify for the text that goes along with the value to SHOW? I don't know what to use as a reference to the text...

Gary: Obviously, there's something I am misunderstanding about how this whole thing works. Here's brief demo code of what I'm trying to do. I keep getting the same selected menu. Maybe if you can take a look you'll be able to see what I'm doing wrong. [real code has long and complex...

Thanks, Gary. Thanks Brian. Gary's answer seems to work for 2 page situation, but I couldn't make it work for recursive where I want to have the form's action be the page on which it resides. (for example, dropdown a menu of book authors, select one, and get dynamic data for amazon for the...

I have a drop down menu on page1.asp A choice from the drop down creates page2.asp (or recursively, page1.asp). I am losing the value of the &quot;selected&quot; item when the new page appears. How can I retain it? Is there some &quot;selected&quot; property I can set?

Most database login scripts assign &quot;levels&quot; 1,2,3 for security. I need that kind of generalized security for &quot;members only&quot; areas, but I also need to be able to let customers-only log into their own directories. Is there a way to accomplist this without having to have many...
