I am using ASP to open a text file on the server and I want to pass
variables to Javascript. Any suggestions?
For example - I have a text file on the server defining a set of pictures.
I open the text file to retrieve the list of files. I want to pass the list
of files to the Javascript which will then display the data on the client
machine.
I have a web site completely developed with .html pages.
My affiliate and ecommerce system are written in asp, as is the only registration page (register.asp).
If an affiliate sends a visitors to our registration page and the user decides to browse the site before registering we lose track of the affiliate id variable..
..Is there a way to pass a (one) variable between the html pages as the visitor browses the html based site and then have it passed to the registration page (register.asp)?
Also is there a method to set a cookie that retains this variable, and have it set to a one week expiration so that when the visitor returns to the site the most recently refering affiliate gets credit.
If passing of the variable is possible with javascript, can the javascript automatically check for the existence of the aforementioned cookie?
Has anyone had success passing variable data between ASP scripts and Javascript?

So essentially to find the correct information in the array, I have to know the selectedIndex in my select statement. I error checked the javascript function using an alert, so it works. I just need to know how I can pass the selected index to the array, and then pass the array to the javascript "updatePreviewPane"

View Replies View RelatedI wanna store a javaScript value in a session variable. so i wanna do something like
<%session("test123")=%> GetE('txtTargetPage').value
I know that is wrong, but how do i do it? I am using hidden for fields in other places
The reason I want to place this one in a session is that what the code is doing is creating a form for the user and if it creates a hidden field it creates it outside the form. so i therefore have to use a session variable. Is this possible?
How can i convert a variable from javascript to vbscript or update an SQL record set with a javascript variable?
View Replies View RelatedI read (probably on here) how to set javascript variables equal to ASP variables
(var NONE='<%=NONE%>') or equivalently

Why do you need the single quotes. How does the quote render within the javascript?
how i can pass a variable from my JavaCsript function to my ASP function. I have a list from which I call a javascript function with onChange(javascript function). Inside that function, i want to pass a variable to an ASP function which will use it in a SQL query.
I have tried everything i can imagine but to no avail. If that is not possible does anyone know how i can accomplish this in another way? I mean. can i call the ASP function directly from my onChange(asp function)? Or does an onChange require a script?
I know you can enter asp variable values into javascript functions
javascript_function(<%=asp_variable%>);
But can it go the other way? Can I take results from a javascript function and use them to update an asp variable? I would like to do the updating inside the function because it will be an onclick function.
This is hopefully a really simple issue... but what is the best way to pass a variable from one .asp page to the next?
View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to post variables using http to a site with a different domain and need my page to wait until it gets a returned value back and then insert that value returned into a database.

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a search application which will allow a database holding a text to be searched.
To search the text the user has to select the act, the scene, the character
Right this is where it gets tricky!
The acts all have different scenes and the scenes all have different characters - so rather than try and attempt a very complicated linked combo box for the act, scene and character I figured a more sensible way of doing it would be to have the user enter the act they want to search on one page. The value of this would then be passed by form to the next page (to get the scene).
Based on the act selected a dropdown box is then populated with all the scenes for that particular act. Following on from this I then want to pass the scene selected together with the act selected on the previous page to the next page which will get the character. I can get the scene value passed through to the character page but not the act value as this is now a server side variable. Basically what I want to end up with is after the user has selected the character on the third page, I want to be able to use all this information to build an SQL search statement.
In case you are wondering why I decided to do it in this way, I initially tried the linked combo box method but found that if the user doesn't click the boxes in the correct order it causes problems with updating the box contents. Doing it this way I figured I can force the user to enter the information in the correct order. Code:

I've got a form that has ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" - this works great for getting a file from the user, however, no matter what I've tried, I can't seem to get any of my other fields passed to the next page. Here is an example:
<input type="text" name="lname" value ="<%= request.form("lname") %>"> I need the "name" field to be passed to the next page.
This if my form tag:
<FORM NAME="UploadFile" METHOD="POST" ACTION="UploadFileAck.asp" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
I've tried an onblur when a name is entered, but it still doesn't recognize the lname field. Any ideas would be appreciated!!
I hope I can explain this without much confusion.I have a search box on a site that contains 2 forms. One form is a search for Cities (via dropdown box) that goes to citylistings.asp. The other form is a search for Counties (via dropdown box) that goes to listings.asp.
Now I need to add the ability for the user put a Minimum and Maximum price in addition to the above. My problem is that I am unsure how to have just one set of price boxes for both forms. So that you can fill in the prices, and click Submit for either form, and the prices get passed.

A guy who used to code in VB said that I should be able to declare variable, then when the user clicks on the box and types a value, the variable is set to that value. Then I can added hidden fields to the forms that are equal to the variables. Can I do this using ASP/VBScript.Or can I accomplish something similar?
I have a function set up to send out an email. The function recieves parameters(email, subject, body). For some reason the function will only work if I change the function to accept only one parameter. ie. function imail(email).

I have an ASP project where I have users select or input values into a criteria page and then once they press "Submit" the ActiveX viewer displays the crystal report. All works fine and the criteria can be somewhat dynamic because the variables are used to build a SQL statement that is passed to the crystal report as the dataset.What I would like to do is create a variable on the Crystal report that will display the SQL statement or at least an English translation. This variable will be used to display the criteria of the report so end-users can see what criteria was used to generate the output of the report.

I know there has to be away to pass a variable from a .html page to a .asp page form field.The html page with the $name$ variable will be sent to a popup .asp page via a link on the html page.

Am trying to pass a variable between an ASP page to a form. Its doing fine in a textarea box but only the first word of the variable (multiple words) is shown in a text box.
code to pass the variable:
<a href="form.asp?title=<%=title%>
code to catch my variable in my form (with a query request at the top of the page):
<input type="text" name="t3" size="40" value=<% If title <> "" Then Response.write title %>>
Ex: If I click on this Ttile I will get this: form.asp?title=Last%20Temptation%20of%20Chrsit.I will have only the "Last" word in my t3 form box. So what do I need to do to get all the title written like this in a box: Last Temptation of Chrsit?
I've got a form where a user enters some info, which is then added to a database. On the next page I'd like to be able to call that record and display some of the info. Here's the problem - the only unique identifier for the records that are added is the 'ID' field that is an automatically assigned primary key in the database. That's the field I really need to show, but I have no idea how to do that.
So, just for clarity's sake, here's the progression that I'd like to see (or some version of it):
1. User fills out form, clicks submit.
2. Info is added to database as new record
3. User is taken to new page, where the ID that was assigned to that new record in the database is displayed.
