Im working in ASPX with VB and Ive got a master page and a load of stuff in a database, and I want to do this but i have lots of possible querystrings, way more than 2 anyway;

Its this bit Im interested in:

<%
IF strProducts = "Books" THEN

 Display books here

ELSE

 Display movies here

END IF
%>,

Basically, I want:


<%
IF strProducts = "something that exists in my database" THEN

 Display the *something* here  (in a contentplaceholder)

ELSE

 Display *default stuff* here  (in a contentplaceholder)

END IF
%>,

Its been so long since I did VB.

Could you not do

IF CheckString(QueryString) "A method which checks if the QueryString you pass in exists in the database.

So you have

Sub CheckString(QueryString as String)

IF QueryString in Database THEN
Return True
ELSE
Return False

Hopefully someone else can clarify that.
