Question

I am checking if condition in Classic ASP but its not working properly. Here is the code that isn’t working:

<% If (Request.QueryString("Cat")="") Then %>
  <a class="home selected" href="/" alt="Home"></a>
<%Else%>
    <a class="home" href="/" alt="Home"></a>
<%End If%>

This displays both anchor tags but I want to display only one from both.

Please give me suggestions on how to fix it.

While I don’t see any issue with the code that is posted, I cleaner way of doing this:

<%
Dim Cat, Selected
Cat = Request.QueryString("Cat")
If (Cat = "") Then
   Selected = " selected"
End If
Response.Write("<a class=""home" & Selected & """ href=""/"" alt=""Home""></a>")
%>
