Passing ASP Generated Result Set to Javascript 1

[jazzsax]

Hi,

I have created an ASP result set(RS) that includes a SQL query that generates a number of remaining spaces for registering for a seminar (total spaces minus spaces in which people have registered). This requires use of TotalSpaces - SUM(spaces) As RemainingSpaces in the query.
What I want to do is take the number of remaining spaces generated by this RS and compare it to the number the person has entered on the registration form. If the person enters a number that is more than the the number of remaining spaces, an alert message would pop up and tell them that they need to select fewer spaces. I was hoping to do this with Javascript form validation like all the other validations already on the form using the onChange event. Any suggestions?

<input onblur=&quot;if (this.value > <%= SUM %>) alert('sorry there are only <%= SUM %> places left. Please enter a smaller number blablabla.'); this.focus()&quot;>

I think that might work. Gary
