can someone help me with this Embarrassed

<%

text = Server.URLEncode(request.form("text"))

if Hour(time)>20 OR Hour(time)<3 then

if not request("text") = "hello" Then

response.write("The text must say <b>hello</b>")

else

response.write("They said <b>hello</b>")

end if
end if

%>

I know i am going very wrong at the start of this but a push in the right direction would be great.

I should also mention that the text box on the form will only be open at the times given so this bit of code to check only needs to be active at this time also. Hope it makes sense.

also tried this

if Hour(time)>20 OR Hour(time)<3 AND not request("text") = "hello" then

response.write("wrong")

But this still does not work.

Do you mean like this? http://www.justcheck.co.uk/site129/" rel="nofollow - Link
If so the code should read:

<% @LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<%
if Hour(time)>20 OR Hour(time)<3 then
response.write("The text must say <b>hello</b>")
else
response.write("They said <b>hello</b>")
end if


%>
<body>
</body>
</html>

sorry i should have been a little more clearer as to what i am trying to achieve. Basically what i want is between the hours of 8pm (20:00) and 3am the form to request text or in this case a password.

so the form being something like this..

<%
if Hour(time)>20 OR Hour(time)<3 then
%>


Pass: <input type="password" name="password"> <br>
<%
end if
%>

and then the processing side to also work on the same principal so that when the text box is activated the code to check for the password is also activated but then on other times no password is required so not input box and no password cheking on processing form.

Holpe this is a little clearer

What you have will never work as 20:00 is a time, and 20 is a number so 20:00 is not going to be more than 20 as they are different data types.

Try looking up the VbScript function DateAdd to be able to handle times in this manner.
