script for on error goto errhandler

[MATTXtwo]

is't asp supported for on error goto error handler?
if so can anybody give me some hint for it...
i need to make my page get to other link if detecting an error

Hi MATTXtwo,

The first thing to do is to put the following line at the top of your page:

<%
On Error Resume Next
%>

This tells the interpreter to ignore any errors and carry on processing the script. The next thing you need is a bit of code to trap any errors which occur:

<%
If Not Err.Number = 0 Then
Response.Write Err.Description
Error.Clear
End If
%>

You can put whatever you like in this second bit of code to handle the error as required.

Hope this helps and let me know how you get on,

Error.Clear
End If
%>

Thanks DrB ...
Can I do like this..
ON ERROR code top of page
iif statement bottom of page?
and can this code catch all error on pages?

Yes, that's how it should work.

Give it a go and let me know what happens. You should be able to force your page to error quite easily so you can test it.
