pass font tag in querystring

[MillsRJ]

I am trying to pass a font tag in a querystring without much success. I've tried several combinations ("'", ', "", ""&quot but it doesn't seem to want to bring the font tag over.

any ideas?

thanks



here is the code

strsummary = strsummary & &quot;<font color=&quot;&quot;#FF0000&quot;&quot;>Requested change for Date = &quot;&rdate & &quot;and Category = &quot; &request.form(&quot;subcatname&quot(i)&&quot; was rejected due to a NON-NUMERIC entry.</font><br>&quot;


<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
window.open('message.asp?strmsg=<%=strsummary%>','Password', 'width=650, height=200, dependent=yes, resizeable=yes, menubar=yes, scrollbar=no')
</script>

try Server.HTMLEncode():

strsummary = strsummary & &quot;<font color=&quot;&quot;#FF0000&quot;&quot;>Requested change for Date = &quot;&rdate & &quot;and Category = &quot; &request.form(&quot;subcatname&quot;)(i)&&quot; was rejected due to a NON-NUMERIC entry.</font><br>&quot;


<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
    window.open('message.asp?strmsg=<%= Server.HTMLEncode(strsummary) %>','Password', 'width=650, height=200, dependent=yes, resizeable=yes, menubar=yes, scrollbar=no')
</script>

if you want to use it client-side with js, you might need to unescape() it first in js.
