Hi all!

I have a problem (probably a simple one). And I need some help with it.

The line with bold red "verifyurl" gives me a bit of a headache. It comes up with an error File <%verifyurl%> can't be found!

If someone has an aidea about solving this issue, please be so kind to respond.

Thanks in advance for any kind of help.

Dee

if this is an .aspx page the notation should be <%= verifyurl %>
and in the code behind file verifyurl must be a public variable.

I tried it but doesn't work.

<%verifyurl%> is on a html page set by E-mail upon registration.

It should be changed into random "verifyurl" variable (URL) from VB code in the back file.

However - it seems like html can't define <%verifyurl%> in the first place - even before VB changes it to "verifyurl" variable.

Because of that the actual URL doesn't show in the mail sent to a new user.

My question is:

Do I have to define <%verifyurl%> somewhere in some other file maybe (I'm using Visual web developer express 2008).
I was trying this on a "local server"

Thanks in advance
