I'm not sure why I can't get the value of a variable I declare and pass through the URL.

here is part of my code:

if( adoRecordSet.Eof == false )
   {
    contractID = adoRecordSet("contractorID").Value;
    Response.Cookies("IsValid") = "Yes";
Response.Redirect("memberpage.asp?contractorID=con tractID");

   }

when I pass the variable contractID it doesn't give a number in the url when i get to memberpage.asp it just gives the variable name contractID..
i've tried other things.. i'm stumped.. any thoughts?

i get a file not found error when I do this
Response.Redirect("memberpage.asp?contractorID=" & contractID)

oh good.. i got it to work i just had to change "&" to "+" (javascript) sorry! thanks..;)
