what I want to do is - the user is presented with a form with a drop down box at the top with two options - Yes or No, If No is selected then the form stays as is and the user can complete the other text boxes.
However, if the user selects yes I want the page to refresh with a different set of input boxes.
What is the way to make an option in a drop down box selected if dependant upon a variable.eg have list of states and once a customer has been selected the state reflects the customers state in say an edit customer form.
View Replies View RelatedI cannot get the selected option to be POSTed (it does not appear in the
QueryString when using GET neither)
I construct the drop down list from an array, I select an element in the
list, I POST using a submit button. When I use Request.Form("NAME") it's
always empty. Is the selected item is Posted? How to retreive it?
Response.Write "<SELECT NAME>"
for i = LBound(aRessource, 1) to UBound(aRessource, 1)
Response.Write "<OPTION VALUE=" & i & ">"
Response.Write aRessource(i, 0)
next
Response.Write "<OPTION SELECTED>"
Response.Write "</SELECT>"
To create a asp file in a wbserver as a interface for the IPphone and the internet. As IPphone can only have GET function ( that means it can't POST thing to the internet).
The asp file's concept is that the file is firstly read the data sent by the IPphone and then encode them into html format and then POST them to the required website. However, i only know the following method to POST. Code:
I have a problem with IIS 6.0 + IE 6.0. I'm POSTing back to an ASP page a long lists of IDs used for sending emails (>10.000). This process takes more than 30 min. The problem is that this process is automatically restarted by posting again all the data. I checked ASP page and there is nothing to reload the page. But after more than 30 min. (changed the timeouts) the process simply restarts by posting again the full list. I only need to
execute this page once.
why the whole process restarts posting back data (is not a simply GET, but POST)? There is no F5 / CTRL-F5 or Back buttons. It simply re-post data, without an error. It's my ASP page wrong? Or something wrong with IIS?
is it possible to automatically post a file from a websites host server to a third party server. Apparently this is quite easy to do using PHP. The scenario is that I have created a two line text file in a secure area of the web server. This file then has to be posted to a third party server for them to process. The trigger has to be a user click.
View Replies View RelatedI am still trying to get my feet wet with ASP, VBScript, and MS SQL here and I am trying to create a very useful page where I can eaisly view my SQL tables and the columns within those tables.
I have two SQL scripts that work well, one to display the tables within my database and one that shows me the column names in that table.
I created a form, added a drop down selection and coded it so the table names appear in the drop down, then added a "Submit" button.
What I am trying to do is get the page to display the column names below based on the table name I select from the drop down list.
ISSUE #1: I cannot seem to get the table name when chosen from the drop down to pass it's value to the second query so it can display the results.
ISSUE #2: How do I display these results from the chosen table name based on the column script below? Code:

View Replies View RelatedI have dynamcally populated a drop down menu with data from an access
database using ASP. The values seem fine, however when i pass them to
the next page (using form get method) the whitespaces in the values
are ignored.
For example with <option value=jim jones> then only "jim"
gets passed to the next page not "jim jones". I have viewed the source
created on the dynamic page and the values are populated fine, but
passing to the next page seems to be problematic...
I'm trying to pass information using POST. The first screen the user selects a company, and that variable is passed to the second page. On the second page, I am trying to populate a drop down list of usernames, but only those usernames that have the same company as the one selected on the prior page.
For some reason, the drop down list does not fill up with any names, and the rest of the form comes up blank(i.e. password, login, reset). Are there any glaring errors in this code? Code:
