I have a simple login screen where I want the user upon entering the correct userid/password , for his userid to be inserted into a table in a database so to keep track who visited his web page.

My ISP is supposedly has created a DS named "win5_zjconstructioninc_com"

but the code below is failing to insert a record to the database.
Can you experienced programmers be kind to take a look at the code below and suggest a course of action and that if I should take the issue up with my ISP.

Thanks in advance

J.

Second, after u add in form, u need to add action="URL?login=kal&password=walthers"
If request.form("login")="kal" and
request.form("password")="walthers" then
