I am working on an ASP page which is executed but another ASP page that sends post data to it. So for this reason. I cannot actually see the pages response or any error messages. Is it possible to get an Error Message into a variable? I need something that will capture an error message where ever it occurrs in the page? Is this possible? ------------- http://www.james-r.co.uk" rel="no follow - James http://www.gotrillian.com/?4498-20" rel="no follow - Trillian - M |

Is it a server error or a script error? Do you know? I spent a good amount of time writing my own error traps and it is possible.
If Request("FormField") = "" Then
MyError = "Form value empty"
End If
If it is processing through an auto subit then try something like
If Request("FormField") = "" Then
Response.Write("<input type=hidden name=myerror value=""form value empty"">")
End if
I have a couple other ideas but the server I use for a playground appears to be offline t the moment. In other words, I have more urgent needs at the moment.
Hope that helps. (Off the top of my flat head)

Just any ASP generated erorr. Like If I Had "If VarA = VarB The" When It should be "If VarA = VarB Then" i want the error message to be put into a variable which can then be logged. ------------- http://www.james-r.co.uk" rel="no follow - James http://www.gotrillian.com/?4498-20" rel="no follow - Trillian - M |

You'll like have to write your own else if's for each then. I went through this with a large data set I was processing and there is no easy way that I know of.
The easiest way is to do a response write of each of your vars to see what they are sending unless you need an ongoing log of errors after you publish the app.
Just my 2 cents.
Good luck

One way to do it is by instructing asp at the beginning of a script to ignore errors and then check for an error code at the end of the script and print the error. In the beginning of the code you want to check, put.. On Error Resume Next At the end of the code you want to check, put... If Err <> 0 Then Response.Write Err & " - " & Err.Description End If EDIT: This will id your errors from the bottom up. ------------- 
Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me. |
