Links from Access onto table

[GROOVYHEN]

If I want to display links on an ASP page table, and have them displayed as links (ie. underlined, etc.), then what do I do? I assume I class them in the hyperlink classification of the access fields, but is that enough? Is there something else I need to do, on the asp page table or elsewhere?

ummm...what?

I'm not getting what you mean. If you have links to a database table? or a HTML table?

where is the database coming in here? are these links getting data after click events? or are they loaded with data to be used on click events?

Sorry, I'm under EXTREME pressure and I rushed that a bit. What I want to do is display a table on a ASP page. It's contents are derived from an Access database: the fields are the link (should this be classified as a hyperlink?), the link description, and something else. To display the link in a table, what do I write on the ASP code???

<table>
<tr>
<td><a href="<%=Recordset("LinkField")%>"><%=Recordset("LinkField")%></a></td>
</tr>
</table>

that's the closest i can guesstimate what you're looking for, of course you'll need to create the recordset object with database data and so on

Something like this:

<TABLE>
<tr>
<th>Your Whatever Field</font></th>
</tr>

<td>
<p align="center"><a href= "#" ONCLICK = 'ViewDetail("<%=rs("fieldname")%>")'><font face="Arial" size="1" color="#0000ff"><%=rs("fieldname")%></font></a></p>
</td>

</Table>

And later to view the link you can write ViewDetail function

<script language="VBscript">
Sub ViewDetail(fieldname)
Window.Location= "yourpagename.asp?fieldname="&fieldname
End Sub
</script>

Both the above code snippet goes in the page 1.

And in the page two

You do

yourfield=Request.QueryString("fieldname")

And then do what ever you want to with respect to this field.

Hope that gives you some idea.

Thanks

Simply:

<td>
<p align="center"><a href= "#" ONCLICK = 'ViewDetail("<%=rs("fieldname")%>")'><%=rs("fieldname")%>
</td>
