Hi there,
 
I'm working with Web Wiz Form version 8.0 (I think) and I'm trying to include a script into the header of the forum that will serve up my own Google like text ads, but I get a variable undefined error.  I'm using
<!--#include virtual="adplantext/inc_ad.asp"--> to try to include the ads, but I get the following error.
 
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'

Variable is undefined: 'Categoryname'

/adplantext/inc_ad.asp, line 28

I know this isn't really a Web Wiz issue, but I was hoping someone here might be able to point me in the right direction so I can get this up and running on my forums.  I want to wean myself from Adsense and start selling my own text ads, so that's why I'm trying to get this to work.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks!
 
MWilson

I've checked Google but wanted to make sure that including this script into my Web Wiz forum was actually possible.  It works on other ASP pages of my site, but it keeps throwing the above error message back when included in either my forum's header or footer.
 
Am I wasting my time including this script or is it possible to make it work?
 
Thanks,
 
MWilson

It is telling you that you have not defined the variable named Categoryname in the inc_ad.asp page line 28.

Read this.
 
 
Web Wiz may be using Option Explicit not sure never looked to see if he is or not. Any try dim Categoryname and see if it works.

Hi Freon,
 
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  I had to add a lot of Dim lines to my forum common.asp page for all the undefined variables I kept getting, but I've got it working as planned now.

I appreciate the real help on this.

Thanks as well to you Mad Dog, I had never heard of Google before, so telling me to search for something there was really a huge help.  I bet Google will get really big and make a lot of money some day. Wink
