Adding value to text links for ASP process
I have a database , and i have constructed a simple A-Z table with text in them , what i want to do is be able to click on 'A' for instance and sent the value 'A' as a URL prarameter so that my result page will know that the search criteria is 'A' , this is useful as i will not have to construct 26 different result page if they click on 'B' for instance .
How do i go about this
any help would be appreciated
thx in advance

Do you mean something like:
<a href="YourPage.html?result=A">A</a><a href="YourPage.html?result=B">B</a>
<a href="YourPage.html?result=C">C</a>
Hope this helps you out,

dim query

Select * from database where yourcolumnheader = '$result'
