Hello,

can anyone help ?
I am passing a recordset field to another page for it to display the relevant information. Below is a sample of how i have done this :

<a href="Products.asp?Product_List=Light Guards">

the problem i have is the address bar on the next page displays the href as

Products.asp?Product_List=Light%20Guards

How can i get rid of the %20 but keep the space in the field in the database.

ie address bar to show : Products.asp?Product_List=Light+Guards

but field in database is 'Light Guards'

any info appreciated.

Dear Paul,
%20 is the ASCII equivalent of space.

Dear Paul,
Depends on the scripting language you are using - most have url_format commands or string_replacement functions you can use...

What is your environment?
