[cwfontan]

ok trying to use a variable in a response.write check it out.

var_selector is a declared variable and I can write ti to the page using
<%=var_selector%> but how do I use it in the statement below?


<% IF (rs_subs__MMColParam > "0") Then
response.write "<option value=""none"">var_selector</option>"
Else
response.write "<option value=""none"">Select Category</option>"
end if
While (NOT rs_department.EOF)
%>

Else
response.write "<option value=""none"">Select Category</option>"
end if
While (NOT rs_department.EOF)
%>
