asptoday_discuss thread: Using a variable in a For Next and placing it in a Session variable


Message #1 by "Mark Berry" <mbfromit@h...> on Thu, 30 Aug 2001 23:34:35
Here is the code I am having problems with



<% 

	For i = 0 to 9

 	ID = Session("cart(0,i)")

	Qty = Session("cart(1,i)")

%>

  <tr>

    <td><%=ID%></td>

    <td><%=Qty%></td>

  </tr>

  <% next %>

</table>



The variable "i" is not seen inside the Quotation marks in 

Session("cart(0,i)"), if I use a number, it works fine.  This is

supposed to be a shopping cart, and I am trying to write out to 

a table the values stored in the array named cart.  The cart array

was dim as Session("cart(1,9)") in global.asa



In ASP 3.0 it says "Do not use a variable within quotation marks.  But how 

else are you going to loop through this array?



Help!!



Thanks!

Try this

<%

For i =3D 0 to 9

	ID =3D Session("cart(0," & i & ")")

	Qty =3D Session("cart(1," & i & ")")

Next

%>
