IF ELSEIF STATEMENTS

[asrg]

Hi ..

My page is connected to an Access DB running on IIS 7.

Im simply trying to show an image if the condition is true. I have 4 conditions looking at True/False fileds in the Db..
Ive Tried this code but no real luck ...

Just get error
/fusion/css/Z.ASP, line 187
elseif (openlist.Fields.Item("netmeetcall").Value)
^


<!-- START if statements -->
<%
if (openlist.Fields.Item("telcall").Value) then response.write ("<img src='../images/icons/mobile_phone.gif' alt='True'>")
elseif (openlist.Fields.Item("netmeetcall").Value)
then response.write ("<img src='../images/icons/netmeet.gif' alt='True'>")
elseif (openlist.Fields.Item("opdef").Value)
then response.write ("<img src='../images/icons/tick.gif' alt='True'>")
elseif (openlist.Fields.Item("emailcall").Value)
then response.write ("<img src='../images/icons/tick.gif' alt='True'>")
else response.write ("nothing")
end if
%>

<!-- END if statements -->

Im a new technical developer and stuck ... HELP :-(

Your first "if... then" statement is on one line, meaning it starts and ends on that line, no "end if" expected.

When using "if..then..elseif...else...end if", your introducing if ... then statement must be on two lines, like this:

if (openlist.Fields.Item("telcall").Value) then
 response.write ("<img src='../images/icons/mobile_phone.gif' alt='True'>")

;-)

Also:

does "telcall" return a boolean value? if not, you must first make a comparison:

if (openlist.Fields.Item("telcall").Value[b][red] = comparetowhateverstring[/red][/b])

[b][navy]"We had to turn off that service to comply with the CDA Bill."[/navy]
