Hi,
I have the following option value code:
Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE="&oRS("BudgetHolder1")&">"&oRS("Details")
&"</OPTION>"
and use it to pass the value of budgetholder1 in a form. budgetholder1 is
a name eg tom brown but when the form is processed all that is added to
the database is tom.
Anyone know why?
Thanks,
Patrick

Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE='"&oRS("BudgetHolder1")&"'>"&oRS("Details")
&> "</OPTION>"

In HTML, "whitespace" is considered to mean "end of element". Unless the
whitespace is enclosed in quote marks
try this:
Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE='" & oRS("BudgetHolder1") & "'>" &
oRS("Details") & "</OPTION>"

You aren't getting the double quotes through...note the three double quotes:
Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE=""" & oRS("BudgetHolder1") &
""">"&oRS("Details")
&"</OPTION>"

In HTML, "whitespace" is considered to mean "end of element". Unless the
whitespace is enclosed in quote marks
try this:
Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE=3D'" & oRS("BudgetHolder1") & "'>" &
oRS("Details") & "</OPTION>"

I'm going out on a limb and thinking it's that you haven't enclosed the
details in some sort of quotes.
Try something like:
Response.write ("<option value='> & oRS("blahblah") & "'>" &
oRS("details") & "</option>"
