Not really sure what your trying to do: But maybe this might be close to what you are looking for. You stated that you are passing the string from a form. you could place that var into another form field on current page and then call a JS function. <script> function myfunction(){ if (document.yourform.newfield.value == "a value"){ do this } else { do this } </script> <body onLoad="myfunction()"> <input type="hidden" value="previousform.value" name="newfield"> </body> just off the top of my head -----Original Message----- From: ihitman_uk <ihitman at hotmail.com> [mailto:ihitman at hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2003 7:01 AM To: JS-Jive at yahoogroups.com Subject: JS IF statement from querystring Is it possible to run a Javascript IF statement from the value of a querystring passed from a previous form/webpage? I'm not very good at JS at all but was thinking if I could either do that or place the querystring in an asp session variable then use a js IF statement from that? Any ideas at all on this one?
