[thelist] ASP: DIM var AS ??

Hello Listers,

Question: what is the syntax to define a variable as an integer?

I have a VERY simple if then statement:

if cat = cat_id then
   klass="navigation2"
else
   klass="navigation"

Weird thing... ONLY the "else" gets triggered, even when cat and cat_id are
equal.  I have checked and double checked (even response.wrote the two vars
to the screen) but for what ever reason klass will never be equal to
"navigation2".  Ever.  Even when cat = cat_id.

About the only thing I can figure is that cat is being defined as a string
and cat_id as a number (or vise versa).  So I need to know how to specifiy
that both are integers.

Thanks,

Casey
