Parsing Parameters not working

[Peter Bassett]

For some reason when I call one ASP program from another, I am not parsing
out the parameters correctly.

Caling ASP has
<a href="fo*************@aol.com?id=A1234?title=Sales ?code=HR">blah</a>

In the called ASP, I write this:
response.write("Unparsed: " & Request.QueryString)
response.write("To = " & Request.QueryString("to"))
response.write("Title = " & Request.QueryString("title"))
response.write("Code = " & Request.QueryString("code"))
response.write("ID = " & Request.QueryString("id"))

Output is:
Unparsed: to*****@aol.com?id=A1234?title=Sales?code=HR
To = na**@aol.com?id=A1234?title=Sales?code=HR
Title =
Code =
ID =

Am I crazy or should Title, Code, and ID NOT be empty. I am missing
something obvious here. Please help!

Thanks!
Pete

Yes, it is obvious. ;] You want to separate your querystring parameters
with a &, not a ?.

A href="foo.asp?to=name&id=A1234&title=Sales&code=HR "

Your first querystring term should be prefixed with a '?', subsequent terms
prefixed with '&'.

Try this:

<a href="fo*************@aol.com&id=A1234&title=Sales &code=HR">blah</a>
