What do I have wrong in this piece of syntax?

varID = Request.Querystring("varID")

<FORM ACTION=&quot;loadfile.asp?varID=&quot; & varID&quot; METHOD=&quot;POST&quot; ENCTYPE=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot;>

That should read:
Code: 
<FORM ACTION=&quot;loadfile.asp?varID=<%=varID%>&quot; METHOD=&quot;POST&quot; ENCTYPE=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot;>

I don't know if you can help me in this too. I have a Javascript page and at the end I want to redirect the user to another page with the querystring I brought from the previous page. I am doing this:-

<form name=&quot;form1&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;Insert.asp?varID=<%=request.querystring(&quot;varID&quot;)%>&quot;>

however, since it is Javascript, it is giving me the following error:-

'request' is undefined

how can I redirect it?

Thanks very much for your help!

no it is a pure Javascript Page

<%@ LANGUAGE=&quot;JAVASCRIPT&quot; %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE> Upload Receiving Page </TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>

etc......

Place the <%@ LANGUAGE=&quot;JAVASCRIPT&quot; %> after your form tag Saturday 12.00

How can I? If I do that, it will not perform the Upload file component

Ah, the reason your getting that error is because by default ASP is in VBScript, so the Response object from VBScript will not work as you have it above. I'm not sure of the correct syntax to the read the form info in server-side javascript though, because I mainly work with VBScript for my ASP.

Hmm, try capitalizing the R in request and the Q in querystring and see if that works for you.

Believe it or not, it worked with the R as capital letter!

Thanks again Tarwin

Now if I want to attach another variable to the querystring, isn't the syntax like this?

<form name=&quot;form1&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;
action=&quot;Insert.asp?kunsillID=<%=Request.Querystring(&quot;VarID&quot;)%>&var=1&quot;>

Ok its working now, however I have a problem, the page I am transferring the vars to is not accepting the VarID for some reason. It is giving me the following error:-

The function expects a string as input.

Uuppsss my mistake.

I was doing the following:-

varId = Request.QueryString(VarID)

instead of

varId = Request.QueryString(&quot;VarID&quot;)

thanks for all your help guys!
