Hi

I cant seem to get the LIKE oprator to work in asp.

I am trying to verify e-mail input format by using
request("email") like "*@*.*"

but it returns "sub or function not defined"

any suggestions? thanks Hugh

Like is not a valid operator.

You could use regular expressions, or more simply use InStr()
