Hi Gavin - Thanks for the reply (and my apologies) for posting my earlier question without thinking it through.
Once I cleared my head, I was able display the value of the placeholder and it's fine. My issue results from the following line: SectionName = "<%!! Navigation:OutputArea(sectionName, Bool:True, Bool:True) !!%>" This code renders the ASP variable SectionName equal to <blank>. My question now is this: If stf_SectionName = "generic", where can I look to see how the placeholder's value is transferred to "sectionName" in the above Vavigation code ? As is the usual case in our field, I didn't write this code but I'm expected to support it. ;) Mike ------------------- On May 13, 6:02 pm, Gavin Cope <[email protected]> wrote: > You can view the value of stf_SectionName by just dropping the placeholder > somewhere in the page as you would any placeholder. > In your code, where are you setting the ASP variable value for > "SectionName"?
