[Argh ASP help someone?]

Actually this line is getting the value of the submitted form field:

varTitle= request.querystring("subject")

So the SQl statement just needs to be:

sqltext="Select * from books WHERE subject_area = '" & varTitle & "'"

Use request.querystring("form field name") to reference fields submitted in a form with a method of "get".

Use request.form("form field name") to reference fields submitted in a form with a method of "post".

I would not recommend using request.servervariables to reference submitted form fields as the methods above are more direct and efficient.

[Ordered an Xbox today!]

I picked up an XBox a couple weeks ago to compliment the PS2 and GC. Luckily I got Best Buy to do a price adjustment when the Xbox dropped in price. I'm looking forward to Fable when it hits, as well as Halo 2.

[For those who spend hours perday infront of PC]

I sit in front of two IBM E74 17" CRTs (side by side) at work all day, and a Sony 17" CRT at home all night

I'm not worried about it at all except for the "sitting all day" part of it.......
