    Default Can I use a session variable to hold the page I want to navigate to?

    Can I use a session variable to hold the page I want to navigate to? I've used the code below without much success, can anyone help please?

    <%
    dim homemenu
    homemenu = session("HomePage")
    response.write homemenu ' I've used this just to prove it's holding the page address
    %>


    <form method="get" action=homemenu>
    <p align="center"><input type="submit" value="home Page" name="B1"></p>
    </form>

    That would be:

    Code:
    <form method="get" action="<%=homemenu%>">
    <p align="center"><input type="submit" value="home Page" name="B1"></p>
    </form>
    The trouble with session variables is that they can timeout. There are ways to ensure that this doesn't happen (at least 99% of the time) but, I am not all that familiar with them yet.
