Hi Dogger,
You could create a page which contained both basic
information and
registration information, like so:
<basic information>
<registration information>
...and then hide any part depending on the "state" of a field
in a recordset
on the same page.
To explain, if you have your event information held in a
database, then you
could simply add a yes/no field to the event data table.
eventID
nameofevent
dateofevent
availableforregistration (Yes/No)
If someone is looking at an event's page, you would then do
this:
<%IF
(EventRecordset.Fields.Item("availableforregistration").Value) = 0
Then%>
<basic information>
<%ELSE%>
<basic information>
<registration information>
<%End IF%>
If you wanted to make it date triggered, then you would just
change the
Yes/No field to be a date field and then do something like
this:
<%IF
(EventRecordset.Fields.Item("availableforregistration").Value) <
Date()
Then%>
<basic information>
<%ELSE%>
<basic information>
<registration information>
<%End IF%>
I hope this makes sense. It's a bit hard to summarise in one
post. If you
need more detailed information, just ask.
Regards
Nath.
