Not sure if this is the right place to post this little tidbit, but I thought it may be useful to others who may have run into a similar situation such as in this post. I just did too, searched here and wasn't able to find a fix, so I just created one. Login.asp from base code 3.4.xx will break and truncate target script querystrings at the first "&" character.
The following fix is my solution I implemented in my forums that will allow multiple query strings to the target script when redirected through login.asp.
1) approx line 53, comment or delete this line of code:
strTarget = trim(chkString(request("target"),"SQLString"))
2) appox. line 65, find this line of code:
if strLoginStatus = 1 then
3) Immediately above it, insert this line of code:
strTarget = trim(chkString(request.form("target"),"SQLString"))
4) approx lines 84-87, find these lines of code:
WriteFooter
Response.End
end if
end if
5) Between the two "end if" statements, insert the following code:
else
tmpTarget = trim(chkString(request.ServerVariables("Query_String"),"SQLString"))
if inStr(tmpTarget,"target=") then
strTarget = (split(tmpTarget,"target=",-1,1))(1)
else
strTarget = ""
end if
Moderators: feel free to move this post where appropriate.
cheers,

[update 20060401] Thanks to leatherlips who discovered a bug if login.asp was called without a target string. see this post. code above step 5 updated. [/update]<
