Compare two email addresses?

[Headed North]

I'm setting up a form that has the user reenter their email address a second time. What expression can I use to compare the two email addresses to see if they are the same? The field names are BILLING_EMAIL and BILLING_EMAIL2

[mattglet]

if not (Request.Form("BILLING_EMAIL") = Request.Form("BILLING_EMAIL2")) then
'--- Handle error
end if

Doesn't seem to work. Can two text strings be compared or do I need to use any kind of conversion on the data?

I figured it out. Just used:

If htmlEncode(BILLING_EMAIL) <> htmlEncode(BILLING_EMAIL2) Then

' Error Display

End If

Thanks.

Sometimes StrComp is an option too...

e = Trim(LCase(Request.Form("BILLING_EMAIL")))
f = Trim(LCase(Request.Form("BILLING_EMAIL2")))

if StrComp(e,f) <> 0 then
'--- Handle error
end if

Excellent. Thanks Easy Coder. That will come in handy.
