please help in preventing this auto assigning in onClink of an Anchor.

i m using


<% dim high

high=0

%>


<a href="#1" class="txt_normal_Bold" onClick="<% high=1 %>">


<%if( high=1 ) then%>

<a name="1"></a> Internet services

<% end if %>


problem is that the assignment high=1 on onClick event in the above code automatically executes withought clicking
on the link.

i want that if this link is clicked only then the associated paragraph should be displayed.

I think you're going about this all wrong. With an onclick you should be using Javascript or at least a JavaScript/ASP combination. Onclick is a Javascript action so your onclick call won't work the way it's setup now. Best thing you could do right now is set your onclick to submit a form with the action= the current page and a URL parameter like whatever.asp?high=1 so that you could then do something like:



Big question I have is what exactly are you envisioning happening here? What happens if you click the link? The anchor is not available before you click the link? Please describe more of your philosophy.
