A:
Classic ASP/VBScript uses one = to check for equality, not two. Another thing you may want to try is
If Request.Form("productid") = "" Then
Code here
End If

Except that Request.Form("productid") will NEVER be an object, so the test for "Is Nothing" can NEVER be true. If there is no value passed, simply testing against an empty string is sufficient.

@Brad, Thanks for the info, it has been a while since I've done classic ASP beyond trivial maintenance. Removed that check from answer.
