If I have something like this...

if Count > 0
Response.Status = "400"
else
Response.Status = "200"
end if

The status is always set to 400 even if count is zero...

Am I missing something?

Thanks

I think you really want is this:

<%
count = 0

if count > 0 then
count = "400"
else
count = "200"
end if


response.write count 'display the result
%>

there is no Response.Status method.

I believe if you look at the methods for Response you will see there IS a
Response.Status method

That is correct. However, there is a response.status *property* in IIS 5.0
and above.

You should read the docs before stating "facts"...

For some reason the script engine may be looking at Count as a Text string
instead of a number. I just ran into this again today, to fix it i
converted both numbers to Longs while comparing them and this fixed the
problem, I am pretty sure if you do the same it will work properly.

And Response.Status will work just fine!

if cLng(Count) > clng(0)
Response.Status = "400"
else
Response.Status = "200"
end if

Here is the complete code I tested, it seems to work:

Count=3

'Count=0

if cLng(Count) > clng(0) then
Response.Status = "400"
else
Response.Status = "200"
end if
