Variables - 4/11/2001 20:46:00

I'm trying to let the user choose his own background color. I've placed a little .gif with hotspots on one page. From there I link to a 'mood.asp' page, where I'd like to pass on different variables. So, for color 1, I'd use the link: mood.asp?mood=1

In the mood.asp I've got the following code, but for some reason this just does not work.

<% dim vbgcolor
Select case ::mood::
case 1
vbgcolor = "#F4D9FF"
case 2
vbgcolor = "#F2F9FF"
End Select

response.Cookies("mood")("bgcolor") = vbgcolor
response.Cookies("mood").Expires = DateAdd("m",1,Date)
%>

First I tried the same thing without the case, and it worked using the cookie. But there must be something wrong with the case statement...

Any help highly appreciated!

Found it myself

That's what is needed:
<body bgcolor=<%=request.Cookies("mood")("bgcolor")%>>

<%
Select case request("mood")
case "blue"
vbgcolor = "#F4F9FF"
case "purple"
vbgcolor = "#F2A9FF"
case "beige"
vbgcolor = "#F2G9FF"
case else
vbgcolor = "#F2C9FF"
End Select

response.Cookies("mood")("bgcolor") = vbgcolor
response.Cookies("mood").Expires = DateAdd("m",1,Date)
%>
