variable in the whole aspx page?

[wildcat_2000]

hello all,

this must be pretty simple though i cannot find a way to do this.

basically, i want to define a variable that can then be used by the Subs and functions of the aspx page. not using a session variable, how can i do that?

for instance, i get the variable

Dim EditorHeight As Long
If Request.QueryString("type") = "full" Then
   EditorHeight = 480
End If

and would like to use it on all subs. right now, i put this code in the Page_Load sub but when used in the other subs i get a 'variable not declared' error...

thank you,

wc.

Put it outside the sub.

Specifically at the top just inside your class

hi,

thank you for your response!

if i do put this at the top, before the Page_Load sub, i get an error stating that 'declaration expected' (though i do declare the variable).

any ideas?

Can you post the code from the top of your code behind?

What if you put it elsewhere, like outside the sub?
