| My question is I have text boxes for address and when user enters address and click on hyperlink it will take the user the mapquest along with the values user entered and show the map from mapquest in the code you gave url and if I hard code this http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?address=1150+WEST+MAGIC+WAY&city=ANAHEIM&state=California&country=United+States&zip=92802&size=small&zoom=9of course link is taking me to this address' map in mapquest. What I need is, whatever value my user enters to address text box and city text and state zip text boxes in my vb.net application, this tag should take the value of the text boxes and put in the tag. How can I do that? for example txtaddress1.text = 111 somewhere street txtaddress2 .text = apt #5 txtcity .text = columbus dropdownbox state = NY zip = 12345 when user enters this values , it should appear on the http address accordingly. |

Look at how it works in map quest, you said you entered an address and it took you there. So look at the resulting link how it places address=...&city=....&state=....those are called parameters. There names are right there in the url, address, city, state etc...All you do is append to the string:http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?adding those parameters. When you want to "request" those parameter in asp.net you do:Request("varname")Jon
