Can anyone help please?

I am trying to use the following:

tempID="<a "http://record_edit.asp?ID="
tempID=tempID & rstemp("UniqueID") & ""
tempID=tempID & "</a>"

To build this statement below using response.write where rstemp is a record source:

<a href="http://record_edit.asp?ID=7"></a>

But I am gettting confused with all the quotes.

Thanks,
Joe C.

tempID="<a href='http://record_edit.asp?ID="
tempID=tempID & rstemp("UniqueID") & "'>"
tempID=tempID & rstemp("UniqueID") & "</a>"

That should ultimately come out to:

<a href='http://record_edit.asp?ID=7'>7</a>

Of course maybe you'd rather use something other than the UniqueID to display as the link ... like maybe rstemp("ProductName") or the like.

Are we having fun yet?

Besides that, it may be better to do it like this:

tempID = "<a href=http://record_edit.asp?ID=" &rstemp("UniqueID") &">YOUR LINK</a>"

Then you could print tempID anywhere on your page.

It probably pays to type slower . . . then we wouldn't have to go back and edit our messages.

It is clear now where I was going wrong and I like your way so much better.
