Hello,

I'm trying to loop through a response form, read the value of a given
response....then later write it to a database.

I am having problems with the following code...and am thinking that I have a
problem with the syntax of reading the form response.

Code is as follows.......(Cause a "This page cannot be displayed error")
Each form field is named q1 through q51 etc..

Any Advice?
Mal.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For i = StartNum to EndNum ' Test for numeric (radio Group) or text
answer given and assign query params

QName = "q" & i
Response.Write "QName: " & QName
Response.Write(Request.Form(QName)) &" --FormData-- "
Response.Write "NUMERIC?: " & isnumeric(request.form(QName) &" "

if IsNumeric(Request.(QName) then
Form_NumAnswer = request.form(QName)
Form_TxtAnswer = ""
else
Form_TxtAnswer = request.form(QName)
Form_NumAnswer = null
end if

response.Write i & " - TXT: " & Form_TxtAnswer & " "
response.Write i & " - NUM: " & NZ(Form_NumAnswer,"") & " "

next

Why are you testing whether the value is numeric before testing that you
even HAVE a value?

Dim val

val=Request.Form(QName)
if len(val) > 0 then
....
else
'no value for supplied variable - let's check the form collection:
for each key ion response.form
response.write key & ": " & request.form(key) & " "
next
end if

Syntax error in line above, no closing paren for isnumeric.

Same here.
