Dynamic Page Creation

[The Wackonerd]

I would like to be able to create pages dynamicly. The page name would
dynamicly appear in the menu with a link to the page. All pages would work off
the same template.

Is there a tutorial about this anywhere?

There are a few ways to accomplish this, but you will need to use the
FileSystemObject to either write the lines of code and then save the file
using the CreateTextFile method or you can copy a file and rename it.

For help working with the FileSystemObject, here's a good tutorial:

Thanks Brandon but I cant see how this relates to my question and then again I
might just have missed what this is about so I will re phrase my question

I want the page to populate from a database table,
localhost/mysite/page.asp?id25
I can get it to show the first record but not any of the others

any ideas?

If you are only getting the first value then your filter is not working
properly probably because the URL should be passed like this

localhost/mysite/page.asp?id=25

Thanks for that Paul,
I must have typed out the above link incorrectly
I am getting localhost/mysite/page.asp?id=25 as the displayed link but it is
only displaying the first record.

I think this is part of the problem - MMColParam = "1" when I change the 1 to
another number (say 3) I get the info fom the record for 3
So how do I get it to dynamicaly present the correct record set?

<%
Dim rs_template__MMColParam
rs_template__MMColParam = "1"
If (Request.Form("S_ID") <> "") Then
rs_template__MMColParam = Request.Form("S_ID")
End If
%>

Your problem is immediate in the code you presented. It is looking for a
passed form value. If you change the line

rs_template__MMColParam = Request.Form("S_ID")

to
rs_template__MMColParam = Request.QueryString("ID")

it should work with the URL string that you have.

Thanks Paul
You where right on the button, thanks
I did have to also change one other line also as you can see below

<%
Dim rs_template__MMColParam
rs_template__MMColParam = "1"
If (Request.QueryString("ID") <> "") Then
rs_template__MMColParam = Request.QueryString("ID")
End If
%>

thanks again
