Using POST To Redirect Information
I'm doing a quiz in ASP, where info is passed from "quiz.asp" to "validate.asp" which checks the answers from a database and redirects back to the quiz page to show the wrong answers.
All that is working fine, but the problem is that I also need to redirect some other information related to the user, and I don't want to use GET and the querystring to show that.
Sessions were used in previous pages but were killed and replaced by variables before the user comes in the quiz page because I don't want the pages to be time-restricted (if the sessions expire).
The validate page uses response.redirect to move to the quiz page. So I can't use a form there.
Is there any way I could hide the information passed using POST, and if not what is a safe way to get around this.

I have a number of domain names and they all point to the same IP address. I would like to redirect to a specific folder, based on the domain name used to access the site. For example. www.root.com - points to the main default page. www.otherroot.com would need to use the default page in a specified folder.
My ISP is not able to help here by allocating new IP addresses to the subfolders of the main site. Something to do with the way IIS works. I have a huge amounts of flash animations (some 200 meg) that need to be served up and I do not want to have to duplicate them in other folders. Is there a way in ASP to code the root default page to redirect based on the URL?

I was reading a book about Professional ASP and I just learned something that I never knew should be done. Before executing a Response.Redirect() you should use a Response.Clear() to remove the possibility of errors on the client's end. I didn't know this before and wanted to share this tidbit.

I need to redirect to another web page, but that redirect will include the
submission of form data. So, unlike ServerXMLHTTP which stays on the
originating web page, I need the script to redirect to the page that I'm
submitting the POST data to (without pressing a submit button).
Any suggestions?

how can i (if at all possible) use post with response method? before i always did something like this to pass variables to the nest page:
Response.Redirect "main.asp?per=" & per
this obviously creates a querystring and that i am trying to avoid... so, if anyone knows how to do this please pass it on.

A coworker is creating a form. The user fills in some numerical data. We would like to present them with a Calculate button that they can use to submit their numbers and be presented with the same information but also with the totals at the bottom. BTW, we cannot use JavaScript so it must all be done using server-side ASP.
That part is fine but we also want to provide them with a Submit button in addition to the calculate button. Now, I realize that if both buttons are contained within the same <form> tag, there can be only one action URL.
We toyed with the idea that if name=calculate, display the original form with the fields filled in and the calculations done and if name=submit, redirect to the thank you page but given that the method is post, then the redirect would not transfer the post data. If the method was get, then the redirect could include the query string data in the URL but that is not the case.

I need some help/pointers here. I maintain an ASP/MSSQL e-commerce site.
I need to force the use of HTTPS for private/payment data and force back HTTP on other pages. Some googling taught me the use of checking Request.ServerVariables("HTTPS"). Though GET data/QueryStrings are passed all my POST data is lost because of the REdirect. Code:

Is there a way to 'force' a submit on a form with out actually allowing the
user to press a button ? For example...
step1: A from is filled out by a user, then they click the submit button.
step2: The form is 'post'ed to an ASP page which writes the values to a
database. So far No problems. But..
step3: Now I want to 'post' these values again to another page without any
user interaction.
My ideas were:
1) I know you can get the form values from Request.Form("myVar"), so I
thought of making a 'dummy' form and setting the 'values' of the form
variables to these Request.Form("myVar") valiables, but I don't know how to
'submit' them to another page again.
2) Is there some type of 'submit' command in ASP?

I am trying to use the following in an ASP page to redirect a user to a
non-anonymous FTP site:
response.redirect("ftp://myusername:mypassword@ftp.mysite.com")
but I keep getting a "permission denied" error. If I just put the same
address string in IE6's Address box and go to it, IE opens myusername's FTP
home page just fine, so I know the FTP site is working as expected. Also,
if I put in an anonymous ftp site, without the username and password (e.g.
"ftp://ftp.microsoft.com"), the redirect works fine, too.
I don't want the user to be prompted by IE for the username and password at
the FTP site, so I am providing them from within the web site.
What can be preventing the response.redirect from handling non-anonymous FTP
access? Is there a better way to do this?

in short, is .asp capable of taking data posted to a page and re-post that same data to another page?

The table has a total of 167 row that would be divided into five categories.
How can i get the above table to show:
<tr><td>row1</td><td>row2</td><td>row3</td><td>row4</td></tr>

I would like to email detailed error information from my website when an
error occurs.
I tried to use "On Error Resume Next" and if an error occurs check the Err
object and the AspError object returned by Server.GetLastError(), but I
didn't get the same amount of details as I can see on the browser's window
if I don't set "On Error Resume Next".
Is there a way to get detailed information from IIS ?

I'm have a page which requires considerable database processing before writing the results to the page. I therefore wish to have a "Please wait message" up on the screen whilst the main page is processed.
I've tried Response.redirect hoping that the previous page will stay until all processing on th main page is complete and id drawn but this is not the case.

I use ASP to check users data they submit. In particular, I'm checking for credit cards and I also use a server component DynuCreditCard. It basically affirms that the number "could be" a real credit card number.
Anyway, I cannot get through the website without having a legit CC#. None of the handful of testers that help cannot get through without a legit CC#. About once a month some user gets through with a blank credit card field. How do you troubleshoot something like that? I can't replicate the problem. Do you just say... "oh well... there was a computer glitch"...? How can I approach this problem?

If i have a combo box, automatically when the user changes the item, i want to display information from the database within a textbox, without having to go to the next page.
Currently i only know how to do this by going onto another page.
In VB it was a simple case of calling a procedure, how does it work in ASP? If i need to call a procedure, how would i do this in ASP. The example in w3schools passes the variables, can i do it without it?

How do i search for user based on specific fields? I have a checkbox beside each field of Name, User ID, Email. There's a textbox beside each field for the user to fill up. How it suppose to work is the user would fill up the textboxes and check the appropriate fields to search on.
It can have a combination of searches like he can search on the name and the user ID or all 3 fields. I was thinking is it possible to store the textbox information into the checkbox of that field and retireve the information?

I am working on a project involving pulling information from Active Directory (Name, email address, contact no.) and sticking this information in some SQL tables. Using ASP, How do I enable windows authentication (username and password from active directory) ?.
In other words, when the incharge user wants to login to the tables on the web, he must use his/her windows username and password ? On the same project, I want to assign different groups with different security levels. (something similar to the Active Directory security groups), and let the admin asign rights to each group in order to control access and privilege of each user within a group.
