[evr72]

Hello,

Is there a way to show or hide a button if a field has a specific value?

hi.
that's a neat concept.
i tried this, and it didn't work. am i doing something wrong?

<form name="form1" id="form1">
<input type="text" name="myfield" id="myfield" value="2">
</form>
<br>
<input name="mycontrol" id="mycontrol" type="button" value="button" mycontrol.Visible=(myfield="1")></input>

I think that is ASP NET and would need to be in an ASP NET page to run, but I'm probably wrong.

That is plain HTML. That won't work.
You'll have to do that via Javascript.

On second thought: you can do this with asp.

like this:

<%
 If myfield="1" Then
%>
<input name="mycontrol" id="mycontrol" type="button" value="button"></input>
<%
 End If
%>

[red]<!--[/red] </form> [red]-->[/red]
<br>
<input name="mycontrol" id="mycontrol" type="button" value="button" [blue]style="display: none;"[/blue]></input>

Just seen something - this won't work either!
I thought you were referring to some variable but you are actually referring to a "live" field!
==>You need to submit that form before reading its value!

<form name="form1" id="form1">
<input type="text" name="myfield" id="myfield" value="2" [b] onchange="this.form.submit()"[/b]>
<br>
<input name="mycontrol" id="mycontrol" type="button" value="button" mycontrol.Visible=[b][red]<%=(Request.Form("myfield")="1")%>[/red][/b]></input>
</form>
