Help with tidying this, please

[SteveH]

Hello

I am having some problems trying to format an ASP script I have.

The portion of the script is as follows:

strHTML = strHTML & "<li><h1 class="title"><a target=""_blank"" href=""" & link & """>" _
&
strHTML = strHTML & "</a>"
strHTML = strHTML & "</h1>"
strHTML = strHTML & "</li>"
strHTML = strHTML & "<br>"


strHTML = strHTML & "<p class="description"></p></li>"
strHTML = strHTML & "<br>"
strHTML = strHTML & "<br> "
Next


I'm getting the following error:

Expected end of statement

strHTML = strHTML & "<li><h1 class="title">
------------------------------------^

I would be grateful for any help here.

Thanks.

Steve

you must use two quotes when your string has quotes inside of it. This is the VB escape mechanism. So instead of class="title" you need class=""title""


otherwise what your asp sees is a string that says "<li><h1 class=" at that point, since you haven't escaped your quote it expects a concatenation operator.

Many thanks for that Miranda.

I had a similar line below the 'title' called 'description' and applied the double quotation marks to that too and it seems to be working nicely now.

Thank you.

Steve
