I have a Hidden input like this
<INPUT TYPE='HIDDEN' NAME='criteria' VALUE= '" & strCriteria & ">"
Where strCriteria is a string containing the criteria for a filter
it kind of look like
firstField LIKE 'something' AND secondField LIKE 'somethingElse'
But after the code here
strTemp = Request.Form("criteria")
strTemp only return: firstField LIKE
I kind of loose a part of the string
Why???
Thank you very much again for spending time to answer my question

Hi johnjohn,
The single quote in your value is closing the value attribute of the input field & the rest is getting ignored.
One way to solve it would be to use double quotes around your attribute values and encode the value...
"<input type=""hidden"" name=""criteria"" value=""" & Server.HTMLEncode(strCriteria) & """>"
HTH,
Chris

What i think it should go like this:
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="criteria" VALUE= '" & strCriteria & "'>"
It must display your full string! :)

Farzan,
That wouldn't work the way it was expected, as it still uses single quotes around the string. Chris's solution would solve that. Else John should use DOUBLE quotes around the string in the VALUE attribute. Something like this...Response.write "<INPUT TYPE=""HIDDEN"" NAME=""criteria"" VALUE= """ & strCriteria & """>" Hope that helps.
Cheers!
