    Question

    Hey Guy's ..

    Yes it it I ... Again .... With another problem for the Dev-Demmie-Gods

    So to begin here's my code:
    *************
    'Checks the Session Variable "State" to see if user used correct route to enter the Site'

    chSession = Trim(Session("state"))
    chString = Trim(Request.Querystring("sStatus"))

    if chSession <> chString then
    Response.Write "It didn't worked"
    Response.End
    'Response.Redirect "http://www.newsclip.co.za/asp/temp.html"
    Else
    Response.Write "It worked<br>"
    End If
    *************

    Now what this code is supposed to to is this ....
    The Session("status") is a Random number red into the Session ("status") variable ...the same variable is read into the Querystring .. the idea behind this is that a User has to through a certain page so that the Audit trail can be invoked.

    Now my problem is that no matter what opperator I use = or <> I can't seem to be able to compare them .. I wrote them into the same page and they are the same .. In thought that there might be a problem with Spaces that's why i used the Trim() ..

    You can test this here:

    Thanks in Advance!

    This works:
    Code:
    
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<html>
<body>
	
<%
chSession = Trim(Session("state"))
chString = Trim(Request("sStatus"))

Response.Write chSession & "<BR>"
Response.Write chString & "<BR>"

if chSession = chString then
	
	Response.Write "It worked<br>"

Else
	Response.Write "It didn't work"
End If 
%>	

 </BODY>
</HTML>

    Okey dokey!

    The problem was your syntax in Request.Querystring("sStatus")) which was returning and empty string when I tried it.

    converting them to strings as well is probably not necsesary.
