<@USERREFERENCE> returns only the value of the userreference for the user.

<@USERREFERENCEARGUMENT> returns '_UserReference=' followed by the value of
the userreference for the user.

In all of your links, form tags, etc. you should be using
<@USERREFERENCEARGUMENT>. The other tag is used when you want to use the
value for such things as inserting the value into your database.

Hope this helps,

Steve Smith

Subject: Witango-Talk: Silly Userreferance argument


Seems I have sometimes used Userreference and sometimes userreferance
argument in my growing application.

I would think it is important to be consistent and use one or the other but
not both.

I had at least one incident where clicking on a links where they were
different ended up bring up someone else's information.

So which is best to use or are their times when one is needed instead of the
other?

Should I change them all to one or the other?

Why do we have both?

Dan
