Submit Form Data And Refresh Form
I have a series a forms that submit data to different tables in a database. As it stands, when a user completes FORM 1 and clicks the SUBMIT button, the FORM 1 data is submitted (action = form2.asp, method = post) to ASP code at the top of FORM 2 (request.form("form1 field name") etc...), and submitted to the database with SQL code, also at the top of FORM 2(INSERT into...). Hence the submit button on FORM 1 directs the user to FORM 2, and submits the data which is exaclty what I wanted. However, I now need the users to submit multiple sets of data with FORM 1, and direct them to FORM 2 once they have finished using FORM 1. Most importantly, I need to pass a few parameters from FORM 1 to FORM 2, and have these parameters submitted to the database.
My main problem is getting a fresh form1 after submiting the same form1, in preparation for anoter set of data using the same form. Basically, the database has 'one to many' relationship tables. Form1 and form2 are both populating the 'many' tables, so that each form needs to be filled-in several times while retaining the key field of the 'one' table. At the moment submiting form1 takes me to form2. Is is possible to submit the data to the database, get form1 back again to submit more data, as many times as required, then click another button to load form2 when the user is finished with form1?
Can anyone please give me some pointers? or at least explain the concept of what I need to do. I am a novice and it's taking me a while to get to this stage. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible to post FORM1 to itself and insert the data (i.e. place the request.form at the top of FORM 1) If so, how do I direct users to FORM 2 while retaining my parameters?

The following will both post the form data using HTTP POST method to theserver2, and then open page2.asp, right? It is not posting form data to server1. The only difference is that #1 will just replace page1.asp with page2.asp. But in #2, it will open a new window for page2.asp, and page1.asp also there.
So that means post the form data and open a new page is not necessary
replace the existing page, case 2 is a good example. That's my confusions.
1. In page1.asp in server1, it has <form action="http://server2/page2.asp"
method="post">
2. In page1.asp in server1, it has <form action="http://server2/page2.asp"
method="post" target="_blank">

When people say submit the form data, does it mean the form data are submitted to web browser using either HTTP GET or POST method, and then it will redirect to another page.
For example, this is page1.aspx
<form action="page2.aspx" method="post">
means it will submit the page1.aspx form data to the web server, and then redirect from page1.aspxto page2.aspx?

I have a classic ASP page with a number of text boxes which are updatable.
For convenience I want to add 'tabs' at the top of the page (like a card
index) as the data to be displayed is split into specific groups (client,
company, preferences, events).
How do I update any changes to the data and switch to a different page - at
the same time? i.e. the user doesn't have to click 'update' (submit button)
before changing pages Code:

I have an ASP form that has a field that automatically places the current date into it. It uses the function Date().
The problem I am having is when the form is submitted into my Access database the date is coming out wrong in the Access field. The datatype for the field is Date/Time but it still is not coming out right.
Example: the date in the ASP form shows as 12/19/2006 and the entry in the Access form shows 12:00:27 AM. If I change the format of the Date/Time field to Short Date, the result is: 12/30/1899.
Does anyone know how I can get the data that is posted to the Access database to come out the same as the ASP form?

I have a form that has approximately 7 text fields and 1 checkbox.
Generally when this form is submitted(to itself BTW) it works fine,
however, when the checkbox is only field that has been
modified/clicked the form doesn't always submit. When it does work, a
Stored procedure is passed form variables and updates to the db are
made. When it doesn't, its as if the form wasn't submitted, it
reloads and resets the page, but the stored procedure isn't triggered.

I'm having a small problem with refreshing my form after saving data in my database! here's what i'm trying to do:
* In my UpdateDB.asp form i display my database records and the user can make changes on whatever record he wants;
* after he'll have to save changes by hitting the save button on the form;
* when i receive the "save" action, i update the database; set a session variable that i'll use later to true ( Session("UpdateDB")= TRUE) and DISABLE the Save Button.
*once i'm done with it i reset my session variable to false ( Session("UpdateDB")= FALSE); and WOULD LIKE to "ENABLE" the save button; but i can't.
Everything works just fine but i can't "ENABLE" my save button? how can i refresh the page and get back the save button? i thought that after resetting my session variable to false would help me but i don't know how to use it?

I have a form that has the option to upload a file at the bottom. If you select a file it works fine but if you leave file selection blank the forms bombs. This is not how I want it to work. On the form you need to use ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" in the form tag.
On the processing page I need to use Set to assign a variable to the form data. I tried using IF on the variable assigned to the file path but it bombs out telling me "This function is not supported". Is there any other way I can check to see if curQes has a value assigned to it?

I have a form, which uses a series of drop downs and text fields. However, when a user forgets to fill out a field, validation jumps in and points to the field which wasnt filled in correctly. However, the drop down fields ALL reset back to the original values when the form is submitted. I dont want this to happen, I want the form to retain its selected values if a mistake is made so the user doesnt have to fill out the form all over again.

This is from a "back-end" page on my site, but have run into a problem I've not had before, first off the form is being generated with some dynamic capabilities. Simply meaning I'm building it based upon so many records from a database.
Now I've isolated the problem down to 1 particluar text field and somehow related to it's name. When the name is present the form refusses to submit, except when I simply delete a reference to the name it works fine. Below you'll see an example of the code:

I am successfully generating an HTML-formatted email using ASP and a NewMail object. It works great. The content of the email includes a simple HTML form that posts to an asp page.THE PROBLEM:
The form in the email functions properly (can be submitted, opens a
browser and redirects to the "post-to" asp page) but the form data is
not making it. i.e.at the far end in the "post-to" asp page....
request.form("someField") is empty.I imagine it has to do with encryption but can't find any info on the subject.

I already created a page with asp but couldn't figure how to send the form to email address. It seems that it requires another page of code what ot do but I can't find anything on the site to show me how it works.

Can somebody clarify if/how/when a simple form is submitted when the <Enter> key is pressed? As I understood it, if you have a form with a single submit button, if enter is pressed, the form should be submitted as if the button is pressed. Is this correct?
Does this behaviour vary across browsers?

I have a form that I want to submit to the server using SSL encryption (preferably 128 bits). Is there anyway I can accomplish that on my own, or do I have to involve a company to get some certificate/ID? If so, do you have any ideas on what the average prices for this kind of service is?
If the 128 bit encryption is not possible without outside help. Is there anyway I can encrypt form submissions on my own?

On one of my pages I have a form that you can submit some comments. When you submit your comments it takes you back to the same page and shows your comment. However, if you click refresh again. the same comments are submitted again.
Is there anything to do about this?I am not sure when to use this whole 'somthing'.Close() function. Any clarification about that would be great.

I am working with website in which a user can login and then submit some forms. I want the user to avoid re-submitting the same form twice when he uses the browser refresh or when he goes to another page and then comes back to that same page using the browser back button.
I know of two solutions:
1. Redirect to a different page after form submission - The problem with this approach is that the website has many forms. So redirecting each form to a different one is not a very feasible solution.
2. A token can be stored in session (or somewhere) after each form submission. These tokens can be verified if the form is being resubmitted - The problem with this approach is that the user can submit
one form only once. I want the user to be able to submit the same form multiple times, provided with differetn data.
Is there a suitable solution where a form with same data is submitted only once, but there is no such restriction with different data?
Can the ASP request object be cleared after form submission, so even when refresh button is pressed, Request.Form elements dont have any data? (Storing ALL the information filled in each form during that session and then comparing for resubmit is not a clean solution I think??).

I have an asp form. The page is kind long. After user scroll down and make some change on the items, the form needs to be refreshed with new selections (some controls may disabled based on the selection).
My question is, each time after the refresh, the form always go back to the top position. Since the form is quiet long. User may get frustrated if he/she have to scroll down the page to find the current position each time after make a selection change. Is there a way to remember the document postion before refresh the form, and reset the position after the refresh? I guess some javascript code may be able to do it. But so far I have no clue at all.

I have made an html form which I would like to send by e-mail. When the recipient receives the e-mail form, I would like them to be able to fill it out and click the Submit button which will submit to an ASP page.
