I have seen this on this site somewhere before but can't find it again <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle>

Does anyone know how to have the alphabet on the page Ex: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz and have them anchors for a category starting with the first letter. Example - When I click on v I will be directed to a category starting with v on the page. This category info is coming from a database so I can't just put an anchor there until the info comes out of the database.

I hope you can understand <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Thanks in advance,

Insert link on every letter. For letter 'v' link would be something like: NameOfThePage.asp?mnuLetter=v
On next page filter records with QueryString (mnuLetter). Something like: SELECT * FROM NameOfTheTable WHERE Category LIKE 'Request.QueryString("mnuLetter"%'

Hi Viktor,

Thanks for the swift reply. I wanted to have these letters as an anchor on the same page so it will send me down the long page to the first word starting with that letter, if you know what I mean <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Also how do I put a link on every letter?

Thanks again,
