I'm new ASP and i'm having trouble with linking two asps. :confused:
I have a search page, from this search page i click on a radio button and type the data that i'm looking for in, once i submit this entry i want to make it so that if for example "orders by customer number" was selected and i type something other than the customer number it gives me an error saying that the value is wrong/the value isnt numeric. I've tried doing this but it doesnt work. I dont kno why.

asp file 1 (search.asp)
<%@ Language="VBScript" %>

asp file 2 (process.asp)
<html>
<body>
searched = request.form("searchfld")
selected = request.form("searchoption")
<%
if selected = 2 then
number = request.form("searchfld")
' check what was entered before processing
if IsNumeric(searchfld) then
number = int(searchfld)
if number < 100000 or number > 999999 then
response.write("The data was not in the required range")
end if
else
response.write("Data entered was not numeric")
end if

<body>

<%
searched = request.form("searchfld")
selected = request.form("searchoption")
if selected = 2 then
' check what was entered before processing

if IsNumeric(searched) then
if searched < 100000 or searched > 999999 then

But i hav one more question. How do i make the error message display in the search.asp page? I'm pretty sure i need to use response.redirect, but i couldnt get it working :(

u can make client script validation using javascript

first create javascript function

function isNumeric(val){
str="0123456789."
len=val.length
for(i=0;i<len;i++)
{
ch=val.charAt(i)

if(str.indexOf(ch)==-1)
{
alert("please insert only number")
return false
}
}


return true
}


and then change the submit button to :
<input type="submit" value="Search" onclick=" return isNumeric(documents.forms[0].elements["searchfld"].value)/>
