asp conditional intpage

[fran7]

Hi, Anyone know if you can have a conditional intpage count.

I have a page with a category1D.
On that page I have a button for the visitor to diplay the results on the fly sort=asc.

Thing is the form action is set to only the non sorted results. What I need is that if the visitor has sorted the results that they are passed to the next pages as sorted and when not that they arnt.
Think I need a if clause but not sure, something like

		            <%
If rsCard("lngCategoryID")="<%=lngCategoryID%>&sort=ASC" Then
%>

		
<form action="directorym.asp?CategoryID=<%=lngCategoryID%>&sort=ASC" method="post">
<%
Else
%>
<form action="directorym.asp?CategoryID=<%=lngCategoryID%>" method="post">
<%
End If
%>

This is what I have

href="/directorym.asp?CategoryID=<%=lngCategoryID%>&sort=ASC"

<%If intpagecount > 1 Then %>

<form action="directorym.asp?CategoryID=<%=lngCategoryID%>" method="post">

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Richard

Hi , Fran
You have an error in your code in th second line.
You are using asp tags inside asp tags.

Here is the error;

		            <%
If rsCard("lngCategoryID")="<%=lngCategoryID%>&sort=ASC" Then
%>

Ok, you are passing the variables using QueryString, then you can check it out in the next page that if you have got 'sort=asc' or not and using if...else condition you can sort or non sort.
Let me know if something is wrong.

Thanks

Dear Ranjan, Thanks for the help. I see what you are saying and the error as I had written the possible if statement.
The trouble is that the next page is the same page, and the moment you press next page the results are sent either
with the sort=asc or without it depending on the form action. If that makes sense.
There are basically two possibilities on the page for the results, either with the asc or without, but only one way
of sending them to the next page. I see what you are saying about the querystring, but the form action predetermines the
way they are sorted and sent, it seems. Any ideas or am I confussed?
Thanks for your help.

Hi , Fran
If I am not wrong the default page is non sorted result and when user clicks the sort button it will sort the result as per your code. If that is fine, Then
When the sort button is clicked you submit that page to the same page with "sort=asc" in the query string.
Now you can write the code as;

strOpt = Response.QueryString("sort")
If strOpt = "asc" Then
	Code for sorting......
Else
	Code for not sorting......
End If

And write code for Not button to simply send user to the default page that is your not sorted result page.
You can do this with the on click event of the Not button like;

onclick="javascript:self.location='page url'"

Good day
