I guess that I am unable to make this work. I am running the asp script off of a form post right now. I tried to adapt it to your method but I am not sure that I know asp well enough to get your method to work. Maybe you will see what I am doing wrong.
Here is how I added it in my html page(the one that calls asp):
<a href="javascript:somefunction()">Click me</a>
<script language="javascript">
function somefunction()
{
var search_term;
var x;
search_term = window.SelectKeyword.value;
alert(search_term);
x = window.open('test_search_alaska.asp?searchterm=' + search_term , 'New Window', 'width=400, height=400,left=350,top=200,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,dependent=yes');
x.focus();
}
</script>
Here is the line that I changed in my asp code:
searchterm = Request.QueryString("searchterm"

I sure do wish I could give you more stars. I suppose that is why the forum administrators only allow me to give one. That works beautifully and I really appreciate your help. Thanks for coming back and checking up on me!
