multiple diplay of results when I require one result - 9/28/2005 11:01:00   
I am building a news type database system for a website.
I have title, intro, author, and date.

What i would like is to click onto the link which i put into the title and then to get the details of that one specific news item.

Instead I get a list of all of the deatails of all the news items, rather than the details of the one news item..........

any help would greatly appreciated.

1) On your main page, the link could just include the ID field and you would be fine:
result.asp?ID=<%= FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"ID")%>

2) On your results page, the query should be as follows:
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM TableName WHERE (ID = ::ID::)"

thanks again,,,,,
check out 1.
http://www.harveywasserman.net/test.asp

Check out 2
When I paste the code into the custom query editor I get the following:
----------------------------
Server error: Unable to retrieve schema information from the query:

fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM h6 WHERE (ID = 1)"

against a database using the connection string

DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=URL=database2/bd1.mdb.

The following error message comes from the database driver software; it may appear in a different language depending on how the driver is configured.

I cant tell you how much I appreciate this help, its fantastic........I am really in a fix here. The page wont come up when i put this code into one of the values in the recordset as link........


just to be clear, I right click on one of the regions that present the data.
I go to hyperlink properties
in the bottom field I paste the code.
I upload the file and it doesnt show up on the internet.

The second piece of code will werify a connection to the database......... This is perplexing because fronpage connects to my database typically.............

hope this helps

What does the code look like for the first page, the one that is showing more than it should in the title bar?
