i am working on a Real Estate Agency as a final year project of my degree.
i am displaying results from Access databse according to users selections
about particulat property types.
i need to display the pictures of the property along with the search
results. The format i have decided is that the results are displayed along
with a hyperlink on some field and the users can click that hyperlink to
view the pictures of that property. The image display is working properly.
The problem is that how is send parameter in a <href> to another page (say
pic.asp) where the pictures of that particular property would be displayed.
pls help me in this regard.

Hi try this
<a href="pic.asp?id=<%=recset("id")%>">picture</a>
If the picture comes from a recordset in other way just
<a href="pic.asp?id=<%=("id")%>">picture</a>

This is actually a common question.
Are you storing the images in the database, or on the server's file system
(preferably the latter)? I will assume the file system.
Basically if you have unique identifer for each site, then you either have
the pictures setup in such a way that they are named to that unique id (for
example: 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg and so forth) or you retain the name of the
image in the actual database (this is not recommended because you may get
name clashes). So all it comes down to is creating a link like so:
<A HREF="some_dir/pic.asp?id=<%=iYourSiteID%>">Click here for a picture</A>
Then in pic.asp:
<IMG SRC="images/<%=Request.QueryString("id")%>.gif">
Of course you really don't even need a link at this point; you could just
display the picture if it is small (or thumbnail it and link it directly to
the picture if it is large).
Hopefully I interpreted your question correctly.
