no, i mean how do you write out the chr > so it views in the browser as > but I need to write it in ASP... the chr code in html is & g t ; no spaces ...that is = &quot;>&quot;

One other question, how do you get the total count of items in an aray?

D'oh! I did put the ampersand codes in but it formatted them as the symbols!

Use &quot;&lt;&quot; and &quot;&gt;&quot; Derren

Create your own chr page

For i = 1 To 256
Response.Write(i & &quot; &quot; & CHR(i) & &quot;<br>&quot
Next

This will give you a look up table for your codes

ie x = 62 = &#x; = &#62;

&#Number; will output the character;

Oh I think the other one is 60 and &quot; is 34
&# 60 ; &#60;
&# 34 ; &#34;

it does write out all the chr's but i get this error at the bottom

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005'
Invalid procedure call or argument: 'chr'
/vzio/test/chr.asp, line 4

Look! I am having some serious troubles trying to get these codes to view! They look OK in the preview, then change!

Use

&
lt;

&
gt;

ampersand g t semicolon
ampersand l t semicolon

Display properly you bugger! Derren
