dynamic list box help

[dosima]

Hi

I have created a dynamic list box which has 5 items in there.
when i click on an item on the list i want it to go to another page where it
shows more information about that item.

at the moment when i click on an any item from the list , the same information
is being displayed for every item. i know the page where the information is
created is correct. the problem is that it doesnt select the actual item i want
from the list.

all the items are linked to one page which will show different items when the
appropriate item is selected, but how do i make each item hyperlink to that page

how can make it so when i click on an item it goes to the that related page
rather than the same one all the time.

Thanks in advance
if you dont understand the question i will try adn explain it better.

Hi dosima,

I think I understand what you're asking, so I'll take a stab at it:

You have 5 items that are displayed in your selection list. When a user
selects a particular item you want to display additional information about the
selected item on another page. Is that correct?

If so, when a user submits the form to the new page, use the request.form
collection in a case statement and display the appropriate information.

Something like this:

<%
Select Case Request.Form("name_of_the_form_selection_list")
Case "ITEM1"
Response.Write("Item #1 information")
Case "ITEM2"
Response.Write("Item #2 information")
Case "ITEM3"
Response.Write("Item #2 information")
Case "ITEM4"
Response.Write("Item #4 information")
Case "ITEM5"
Response.Write("Item #5 information")
Case Else
Response.Write("invalid selection")
End Select
%>

This is just a broad example of one option to try. I hope this is helpful.
