if statments

[Manic]

I have the following code and I want it to display a field only if there is information in it.

I can get it do always display the link or never display the link.

AAAARRRGGGHH.

The rest of the page works though.

if trim(request("techID&quot) = trim(rs("techquestionid&quot) then
response.write rs("answertext&quot
if trim(request("furtherinfo&quot) = "" then
response.write &quot;<br><a target='_new' href='&quot; & RS(&quot;furtherinfo&quot & &quot;'>Click here for more info</a>&quot;
else
response.write &quot;</TD></TR><BR>&quot;
end if
end if -----------------------------
I've broken it again !!

should you not be asking if trim(request(&quot;furtherinfo&quot) <> &quot;&quot; ?????

and just as a note, your application will perform better (albeit only a little, but lots of littles become lots) if you specify querystring or form when you do a request...

I have tried that but Now it doesn't show the text if there is any.

Thanks for the help though.
