Great. Thanks. I knew it was something stupid like that. In the If controller I needed to use single quotes around the variable.
However in the HTTP Request, it was unnecessary to use the single quotes around the variable name. Hopefully the next question I have will be more substantial than this. -Matt -----Original Message----- From: sebb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 3:49 PM To: JMeter Users List Subject: Re: Advanced Web Service Test Plan Help Variables are referenced as follows: ${variable} and when processed are replaced by their value. The If controller requires valid JavaScript, for example: '${fruit}' == 'apple' or ${num} == 123 Note the quotes needed to form valid JavaScript.
