Problem with request.form

[SonJ]

Hi there

Can anyone see what I am doing wrong? I am using SQL Server 2000 and ASP

This is how I am calling my function:

<select name=&quot;blah&quot;>
<%WriteShowTime=ShowTime(&quot;intDepartureMinuteOption&quot;, strDepartureMinute, 0, 59, 5)%>
</select>

and this is my function here:

function ShowTime(strLoopVariable, strConstantVariable, intStartFrom, intEndAt, intStep)
for strLoopVariable=intStartFrom to intEndAt step intStep
if strLoopVariable<10 then strLoopVariable=&quot;0&quot; & strLoopVariable
Response.Write &quot;<option value=&quot;&quot;&quot; & strLoopVariable & &quot;&quot;&quot;&quot;
if strLoopVariable=strConstantVariable then Response.Write &quot; SELECTED&quot;
Response.Write &quot;>&quot; & strLoopVariable & &quot;</option>&quot;
next
end function

The problem that I am getting is that it is very temperamental as to whether it will do the &quot;Selected&quot; part of the loop.

If anyone has any ideas as to what I am doing wrong, your advice, hints, tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance

try forcing both values to an Int before comparing them - ie:

if CInt(strLoopVariable)=CInt(strConstantVariable) then Response.Write " SELECTED"

Thanks for that, it worked a treat.

What can I say, sometimes the most obvious answer eludes us all!
