Re: IIF doesn't work correctly
I correct myself, the example works, but what I'm trying to do doesn't work. Can anyone look at this and see why it isn't working
#iif(listlen(cgi.query_string, "&") gt 1, Evaluate(DE("listdeleteat(listdeleteat(cgi.query_string, 1, "&"), 1, "=")")), DE("test"))#
The cgi query_string will have either fuseaction=login.login or fuseaction=login.login&fa=something.else , that way if I am passing the extra fa I want them to be redirected to that fa after login.

I haven't actually tried running your code, but why would you nest DE within
Evaluate? You should be able to simplify the _expression_:
#IIf(IsDefined("Form.Deliver"), "Form.Deliver", DE("no"))>

RE: IIF doesn't work correctly
It's a bit overcomplicated (evaluate and de cancel each other AFAIK),
but your problem is with quotes
Evaluate(DE("listdeleteat(listdeleteat(cgi.query_string, 1, '&'), 1,
'=')"))

Re: IIF doesn't work correctly
I figured it out, must not put double quotes.
