Passing Variables In Hidden Fields
I am passing variables in hidden form fields and have got it working fine. However, if the variable value has a space in it then Request.Form("fieldname") only returns the first part of the variable upto the space and the remainder is lost.
I can pass such variables in the URL using URLEncode (and a URLDecode function) but this particular form is posting to the same page. Do I have to do some kind of encoding again to format the space properly and then decode it again?

I'm having trouble passing hidden fields between forms. I have a total of four forms. I have the 1st form passing its field to the 2nd form, and the 2nd form passing its field to the 3rd form, but the 1st form's field then is not passed into the 3rd form. So obviously, my summary form (the 4th form) is not getting the 1st form's field or the 2nd form's field, only the 3rd form's field. Code:

I am creating a form that has 5 steps/pages. Each page contains about 20 fields. But I don't want to write them until they submit on the last page. I figured out that I can use hidden fields to carry the data from the previous forms forward. If should bascially work like this:
Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6
20 Fields 20 Fields 20 Fields 20 Fields 20 Fields 100 Hidden
20 Hidden 40 Hidden 60 Hidden 80 Hidden Write to DB
But the problem I am having is when I submit page 4 page 5 won't load. No error, it just won'tload. It seems to be overburdened. Is there a max on the number of fields it can pass? Is there a better way to go about doing this that someone can suggest? Or a suggestion that someone can make to fix this problem?

how can i set the value of a hidden field at run time in my page? how can it be done in scriplets (<%%>). the second issue is that if we define a function using javascript, how can it be called at any place.
we don't want to call that function at any event but instead want to call that function every time or on validating an if condition.

I have a product ordering process that passes information between 3 asp pages using web forms.
I am attempting to set a session on form2.asp with data entered into form1.asp . This session is then displayed.
I then wish to use this session value within a hidden field on form3.asp as follows
<input type="hidden" name="productname" value="<% Session ("productname") %>" >
This hidden field value is not being parsed in formmail.pl - any suggestions why this will not work?

I have a form in which if i check one checkbox it makes 2 textboxes invisible. Thats working fine.( I am using java script to perform this)Now when user fill the form and hit submit and if some required field is missing than it forces the user to go back to form and complete it.
While going back it retains all the values for all the fields.It also retails the checkboxs but even though the checkbox is checked now but textboxes which should be hidden are visible.

document.forms[0].Update.value='yes';
document.myForm.submit;
in a routine.
I have declared a Hidden field called Update in my form. I have checked before the submit that the value does actually get set, but after Submission the value of Update is empty. I have checked everywhere and this is the only place in the page that this value is set.
Does anybody have any idea why my value is being lost on submit. My form is declared :
<FORM NAME="myForm" action="AgentDetail.asp" method="post">

is there any Request object's method that could calculate the count of particular hidden fields, the ones that have a 'item' in their name:
<input type="hidden" name="item1" value="10">
<input type="hidden" name="item3" value="20">
<input type="hidden" name="item5" value="30">
<input type="hidden" name="somethingelse" value="40">
The result should be 3, not 4 (only the fields which names - or IDs - start with an 'item'). Note: I'm not satisfied with the solution of naming the fields with same name "item" and then split the array to get their values and read the ubound of array. I would like to keep the names of the fields as I stated in the example.

i wrote a script in asp/vb script that validates form fields. all works fine, apart from the fact that alerts are being shown against the empty form fields when the page loads the first time.
so, validation should not be carried out when the page loads the first time. my friend challenged me and said i can achieve this "using a hidden form field or even the submit button" and submitting the page to itself
i was more thinking of using session variables or a session cookie, but does anyone know how you could accomplish this using a hidden form field?

passing a hidden value to a querystring via a form. It is not working correctly because when I submit, it will go to calendar.asp?date= instead of calendar.asp?date=12/13/2004.
Here's the code for the hidden value:
<input type="hidden" name="CURDATE" value="<%=dtCurViewMonth%>">
This code works because I have already tested. The value was correct.Here's the code for submitting the hidden value (this is the line of code that I need help with):
<form name="frmCalendar" action="Calendar.asp?date=<%=CurDate%>" method="POST">

How can I pass a field…meaning I want the training title field to automatically select the training that the user took. I don’t want the user to be able to change that field. So how can I pass that field using the database?

I have two ASP pages payment.asp:
For customers to fill in payment/card details (pre-populating details if
details submitted were invalid and user had to re-fill in details)
confirmorder.asp:
Display the credit card details in hidden fields and also the order details
from Database
My question is:
1) If payment.asp submit to confirmorder.asp, then
1.1) I could get confirmorder.asp to display card details in hidden fields
BUT
1.2) But if card details are invalid how could I return user to payment.asp
with card details prepopulated??
1.2.1) If I Response.Redirect, nothing would be pre-popualting (unless I put
in details in Query string, which is not what I wanted for security reasons)
2) If payment.asp submit to payment.asp then
2.1) I could get page to pre-populate details on payment.asp if card details
are invalid BUT
2.2) How could I direct user to confirmorder.asp back to payment.asp with
details pre-populated
1.2.2) If I Response.Redirect, hidden fields cannot be populated by reading
in Request.form!

I'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. Once I'm able to get the variable back i know how to get it into a database, just don't know how to have the page wait for the value returned.

I 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.
You can view the page Here.
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 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.
