Creating dynamic text link from text

[ukjooles]

Hi

I'm trying to create a text link "read more..." (rather than a long and ugly
text link )on my web page. The link is dynamic from the database and listed
through repeat region. Can anyone please tell me what I put in the link field.

The recordset is called rsNews and the link is called link (ie rsNews.link).

Cheers
Julie

I guess we should assume that the text in the database field is eithr an
absolute or a relative URL? If so, then this is how I do it. First, you bind
the URL field to the page. It will display as {rs_recordset.url} on the page
and <%=(rs_recordset.Fields.Item('url').Value%> in the code. Change the code to
read: <a href='<%=(rs_recordset.Fields.Item('url').Value%>' >Read More</a> and
you will see the Read More link reflected in the document. HTH Cheers Chuck
