The 1 parameter tells InStr to start searching the string at the first character (beginning of string), if we changed it to 5 then it would start it's search on the 5th character.

Thanks, works prefectly.

One question though, the first parameter (1). what is that for? Can you explain please?

Thanks
Casper

Your looking for the InStr function:

If InStr(1,variablename, "forum") > 1 Then
'whatever
Else
'whatever
End If

BTW You can write your ASP pages in Javascript if you're more comfortable with it.
