linking Variables

[MrJones]

I am trying to add a link to an If Then statement. I can get it to work until I add in a variable. Below is my code. The first one works the second does not.Does anyone have a suggestion? Thanks!!
#1
<%
IF Request.Cookies(&quot;lastname_number&quot = &quot;&quot; THEN
Response.Write(Variable1)
ELSE
Response.Write(&quot;<a hrefage2.asp&quot;>See now</A>
END IF
%>

#2
<%
IF Request.Cookies(&quot;lastname_number&quot = &quot;&quot; THEN
Response.Write(Variable1)
ELSE
Response.Write(&quot;h refage2.asp?lastname=<%=Request.Cookies(&quot;lastname_number&quot%>&quot;>See now</A>
END IF
%>

The problem is this line on #2.

ELSE
Response.Write(&quot;h refage2.asp?lastname=<%=Request.Cookies(&quot;lastname_number&quot%>&quot;>See now</A>

<%= means response.write so you have a response.write inside another response.write.
Change it to

ELSE
Response.Write(&quot;h refage2.asp?lastname=&quot; & Request.Cookies(&quot;lastname_number&quot & &quot;>See now</A>&quot
