I want any textbox that filled with the children name will display on my email account. Can I use the for loop to do it? The bottom is not work!

Dim child
for child = 1 to 4
for each child in Request.Form("child_name")
then
message = messege & "Children Name: " & Request.Form(child)

end if


HTML
<input type="text" name="child_name" value="1"> Name 1:
<input type="text" name="child_name" value="2"> Name 2:
<input type="text" name="child_name" value="3"> Name 3:
<input type="text" name="child_name" value="4"> Name 4:

ASP insults its users:

Dim child

Ahaha.. Sorry to be offtopic, couldnt resist...

Try this and let me know if it works...

dim children, child
children = split(Request.Form("child_name", ",")
for each child in children
message = messege & "Children Name: " & child
next

No it's not working. When I press submit the erro "The page cannot be displayed"

Try this and let me know if it works...

dim children, child
children = split(Request.Form("child_name", ",")
for each child in children
message = messege & "Children Name: " & child
next

Sounds like you have a compiler error in your code. If you're using Internet Explorer as your browser, you won't be able to see it unless you turn off one of the default settings:

Tools menu -> Internet Options... -> Advanced tab -> uncheck "Show friendly HTTP error messages"

it is error 500 but when i took out the code that you provide then it is o.k. This means the syntax is not right. I have tried to take the correct code and alter it to different code it gave me the same error "page connot be display" and at the bottom page is http:error 500.

I didn't post that code originally, but I did find a couple errors in it (a missing parenthesis and a misspelling -- the stuff in red):

hoachen, the point I was trying to make is that if you turn off that setting in IE, then VBScript will spit out a more useful error message telling you what line of code the error happened on. Instead of "page cannot be displayed" you will see something like "Complier error on line 2: expected ')'". That tells you where to look to fix the problem.

See here: http://www.webwizguide.com/asp/faq/friendly_HTTP_error_messages.asp for screenshots of the setting. Remember that you need to turn it OFF, not on.

hey guest what! it works now. thank you for your patients and good advice.

Cheers,
hoachen
