Setting a public variable using an <a> tag
OK, here's the thing. I have a variable named sTXT that I need to be able to set using a standard <a href> tag. The user should be able to click the link, and the sTXT variable will be changed to whatever value I have hard coded in for that link.
For example, if I have a section of links such as: Washington, Oregon, California, etc... then when the user hits that "Washington" link, sTXT is set to the value "Washington" and the page stays at the current page. I've tried <a href="javascript:void(0)"; onClick='<% sTXT = "Washingon" %>' >Washington</a>, as well as a few variations of that. And what happens is it seems to ignore the "onClick" and just automatically sets the value, regardless of whether it was clicked or not. I'm generally just having problems with the onClick... Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I should have been more detailed (it was about 1:30 AM when I posted that). So let me fill you in a little better.
Yes, it's ASP. And no, the link won't really do nothing. What I'm looking for is essentially I want to make the link a button. I don't want to use actual form buttons though, because I need the page to be a little more streamlined and simplistic like simple links. IF I could get the link to call a sub procedure, such as if I had onClick='<% call asubcall %>' within a form, and in that sub procedure I had something along the lines of <%sub asubcall sTXT = "Washington" document.submit end sub%> Basically, I want to have a "hidden" form. The link will be the submit button. Even if I could do onClick="document.submit()" or something along those lines, that would be great, I just haven't gotten it to work yet

that sounds pretty messed up, and like you don't really know what your'e trying to do =D
if you want the link to submit the document, just put a <form> tag right after your <body> tag. Give it a name, and put whatever hidden input fields you will need. in your buttons, just have onClick="Document.FormName.Submit"
