?scid

[david]

Hi,

I need some help understanding "?scid" as contained in the two lines of code
below.
Each line is suppose to open up a new web page but doesn't.
If I remove the characters /?scid= from the second line, then that line
works as expected.

<li><a href="/?scid=passwordprotect.asp">Password-Protected Page</li>
<li><a href="/?scid=nonsecure.asp">Nonsecure Page</li>

The source code above are copied from:
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;825498&spid=2514&sid=138

Thanks.

David

The ? is a delimiter.
scid is a parameter fed to the ASP page so it knows what to do.
In this case there seems to be an error and it isn't really needed.
Probably because someone changed the examples and forgot to remove that
part.

Hi Jens,
I copied the code without modification from
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;825498&spid=2514&sid=138
I used Frontpage 2003 under Window XP to create a website with the sample
code, and published it to an ISP site.
So why does the code fail?
Again, I copied it straight from the Microsoft article, without making any
modification.
The original codes can be viewed at the link above.
