Is there an issue with IIS or ASP Classic where *Request.ServerVariables("QUERY_STRING")* returns blank if no default file name is given in the URL? On my local developer machine, I can do
http://localhost/xslt/?opcs/abc
which returns "opcs/abc". However, on our ancient web server, it returns nothing. I have to explicitly give it the default file name in the URL. Like so
http://localhost/xslt/default.asp?opcs/abc
While nothing too major, it is a little bit of a annoyance. One way I can maybe think of remidying the problem is have Javascript read the URL and return everything after the ?.
Unfortunately, I do not know what version of IIS or ASP we are using.
Thank you.
