hi, i have two pages, index.asp and moreinfo.asp. Index.asp should pass 3 querystring db field values to moreinfo.asp. It passes two but leaves the third blank. It was working and still does locally but not live. Driving me crazy. Any ideas? (3 fields are itemID, itemname, amount). then click more info button.


****************

The moreinfo button on index.asp has this link:
<a href=&quot;moreinfo.asp?itemID=<%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item(&quot;itemID&quot;).Value)%>&itemname=<%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item(&quot;itemname&quot;).Value)%>&amount=<%=(Recordset1.Fields.Item(&quot;amount&quot;).Value)%>&quot;><img src=&quot;/images/moreinfo_c.gif&quot; width=&quot;86&quot; height=&quot;18&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;></a>

The moreinfo.asp page code:
<%@LANGUAGE=&quot;VBSCRIPT&quot;%>
<!--#include file=&quot;Connections/ss.asp&quot; -->
<%
Dim Recordset1__MMColParam
Recordset1__MMColParam = &quot;1&quot;
if (Request.QueryString(&quot;itemID&quot;) <> &quot;&quot;) then Recordset1__MMColParam = Request.QueryString(&quot;itemID&quot;)
%>
<%
set Recordset1 = Server.CreateObject(&quot;ADODB.Recordset&quot;)
Recordset1.ActiveConnection = MM_ss_STRING
Recordset1.Source = &quot;SELECT * FROM items WHERE itemID = &quot; + Replace(Recordset1__MMColParam, &quot;'&quot;, &quot;''&quot;) + &quot; ORDER BY itemname ASC&quot;
Recordset1.CursorType = 0
Recordset1.CursorLocation = 2
Recordset1.LockType = 3
Recordset1.Open()
Recordset1_numRows = 0

When I did a view source on you page the itemname= is blank. Is you query on the server returning values for itemname?
 
No, you're right, that's the problem, I don't understand why index.asp is sending both the other 2 fields but not the itemname value. Here's the index.asp code:

All you really need is the itemID. I assume it is the recordset primary key. Use that to yank the info back from the database on the next page. Also, it appears at a quick glance that you are writing 50 times more code to pull the data that you are showing than you need to. Jonathan Galpin
 
simple solution: change access field from memo to text!!!!!!!!!!!!!
