I want to know the best way of passing on variable contents on a site
coded in ASP using frameset/frame. Content is used in all frames for
stuffs like screen_resolution, language, ...
My client's site is visited by Netscape 4.x/6.x and IE-5.x/6.x. It's
being converted to ASP and currently using frames (middle frame has a
vert scroll bar).
-I tried using Session("xxx") but in Netscape (4.x), it opens up a new
Session-ID for each frames. Therefore I cannot store variables in a
session when it's Netscape.
-I tried passing on variable contents using http://...?xxx=124&yyy=...
but I'm finding that I may have to have a long list of variables to
pass on this way.
-I was thinking about using SQL to store infos but then I cannot have
a unique record because of not having unique SessionID in all frames.
-Maybe there is a way of re-using the same session as the frameset for
each frames ?
Using DW 8 with 3 frames. I want click on whatever in top frame that uses Go To URL which displays results in bottom frame. My problem is that the results in the bottom frame actually runs a recordset (SQL query) that pulls variables from various form elements in the middle frame.
The middle frame never submits the form variables to the server. It only serves as a resource for the getting variables used in the SQL statement. How do I go about addressing variables in the SQL statement ?
I have to pass form data from my site to another organizations site using POST method... how exactly do I do that? Im familiar with how to do it within a single site/domain, and cant use querystring... I dont know where to begin.
I maintain/enhance an e-commerce site originally developed by someone else using ASP/MS SQL Server.
The site uses a lot of session variables to store everything from the shopping cart to user sessions.
The problem is that now we are receiving a lot of customer calls that they cannot place their orders.
Just before they checkout they get an error page.I have no problem placing orders from my computer and we do get orders from other customers.
I believe that when the application is getting values from the session variables to store it in the database, it faces with the problem as those particular users may have tighter security measures enabled on their browsers i.e no cookies :-(
Right now we have plans in place to migrate to ASP.net ( 2 months minimum) but we expect a huge traffic later this week as some magazine ads are out. And since most customers might have installed SP2 for Windows XP recently I do expect a lot a lot of them to have their cookies disabled.
So I need to FIX this problem ASAP. Any suggestions?
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.
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 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 am developing a website for our agency. My plan is to make a master-detail Page. In the Master page it will consist of 2 fields. 1. Project Status 2. Type of Project. and also it has a submit button. Once the submit button is click it will query my database based on the content of the two fields and it will be displayed in the detail page.
I am using Dreamweaver. I have tried their master detail page but it only can filter 1 field. also I have successfully connected to my database. Any suggestion on how will I ba able to accomplish my problem?
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 have a site that needs to look at an IFRAME for a login and search form but then break out of the IFRAME and pass all of the variables back into a page on my site.
For example:
Homepage (mysite) Page with login IFRAME Page with search form IFRAME Search results (mysite)
How can I pass the variables from the search form IFRAME to the search results page?
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.
The popup window (ASP page) is where a user would see a form field to enter there telephone number, a drop down for their carrier, and of course a form field with the $name$ variable already populated.Kind of a send this to my phone deal.
Im working on a form that needs to submit the contents i.e. username password etc to itself then response.redirect to another form. How would i pass through the value of the username to the next form when i use the response.redirect code to get to the next form?
In the past i would add the contents of the previous form when the second form is opened, but with this i want to submit the contents then open the next form with the username stored in a hidden field or somthing similar.
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.
How to pass variable/variables between two asp pages?I am using Querystring but the problem is if i am having more than one word like "James Bond" then when i am trying to print it on another page then it is printing "James%20Bond".
I 'm writing an application that has two ASP pages. The first one lists out all the products and their description from the database, together having a text box next to each item for input of quantity. Like
The second would receive the item and quantity to calculate how much the total amount is. how to pass the two variables item & quantity to the second ASP page.
I wanted the top of the site to stay in tact while the bottom constantly changes. With using this structure, I can't figure out how to pass variables from one page to another in the "frontpage" frame.
What I want is a jive, old list of links on a page within the "frontpage" frame that all point to the same page, but passes a specific category id to the next page so that it knows what data to display. Where I am confused is how to do this when the URL never changes. Is there a way to set a session variable onClick? If so, how would I go about doing this?
I have one .aspx form that my users fill out and this then takes that information and populates a second .aspx form via session variables. I need to screen scrape the second .aspx form and e-mail that off.
I have figured out how to do the screen scrape but it e-mails a blank form with none of the session variables set. Is there a way to screen scrapte the second .aspx form with the variables set from the first .aspx form?
I am passing some variables in the url and then using them in the following page to display the appropiate forum thread. I am trying to jump to the last thread so I am using named links #id to jump to the last thread but when i use the request.queryString the # value is been taken in as the variable value as well. Is there any way to stop this from occurring .
how do i pass a value that contains a space. Cause at the moment the code above is only passing the first word in the string. eg "hello world" is stored in recordset and the code is only passing "hello" (rsUser is the recordest and "title" is the field name).
I am currently creating a multiple page form where the information on the first page needs to be validated. To do this, I have an asp page between the 1st and second pages of the form. However, I need to pass all of the information from the 1st page to the third (the second page of the form) so that all collected information can be sent out in an e-mail.
I thought about doing this with hidden form fields, but I don't know if this is possible. I put a form with hidden fields on the validation page, but I don't know how to make it forward to the proper page after that without a submit button.
I have also heard of session variables, but I could not find too much information on the topic.
I have a page that lists many records. One field in each record has a hyperlink based on the records ID. I click on this hyperlink and it sends me to another page and also sends the ID with it. How do I pull this ID and paste it on the new page. Below is the sending and receiving page and the code I have on each.
this correctly sends to new page with releaseID passed in the browser URL
