Re: FN-FORUM ASP code help

Same thing happens with and without the brackets....

By the way, the Response.Writes and the RecordSet stuff is not the issue
here. As far as I can see, the two response writes at the top show nothing
surrounded by asterisks. Surely showing the len() of something should show
a number even if it is zero? Equally, as you go further down, the If
statement is checking the len() of the variable and finding it to be not
zero therefore outputting "hello" instead of "none" if it was zero. What I
don't understand is how when writing a variable to the screen and showing
that it is nothing, why doesn't the len function return 0?

You don't need the '(' for response.write should read

Response.Write "*" & len( trim( strAffiliateID)) & "*"

which will give you *ID* as output
