ASP and JavaScript -
Can anyone help me out with an ASP /JavaScript question?
I need to code a page so a call to a URL is not hard-coded with a machine name or ISP, but the script HTTP_HOST is substituted instead (so the code in this one file can work on multiple machines). The solution we've come up with here is this line of code
<%=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_Host")%> replacing the machine name/IP address ie instead of
Link="https://www.site.com
we've substituted
Link="https://<%=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_Host")%>
The problem seems to be that the <% %> tags around request.serverVariables are interfering with <% %> tags around a larger if/then statement.
This may be too vague to help? My site is internal, so I can't provide a link unfortunately.

I haven't ever used ASP myself, so I can't be of much help- but I'm sure someone here has some experience and will be able to help out.

I know that Chad works with ASP, you can find him in the Hosting Forums.

found this while searching for something else.
Easy solution...
original code:
<%
if this = that then
'blah
Link="https://<%=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_Host")%>
'blah
end if
%>
corrected code
<%
if this = that then
'blah
Link="https://" & Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_Host")
'blah
end if
%>
