Retain Value Of Pulldown List
I have one .asp page with a SELECT pulldown list on it and some INPUT fields. When SUBMIT is clicked the form data is submitted to that same page and validated. If INPUT fields are empty the asp code will insert a visual indicator (e.g. *) to convey that the field must be filled in.
However, if the user has made a selection in the pulldown list and has left an INPUT field empty, when the form reappears after validation, the pulldown menu looses its selection and returns to its default value.Would anyone be able to provide a solution to this?Or do you need to see the code first?

I have the following that I am using in an ASP page that pulls a name
from recordset.
Response.Write "<tr>"
Response.Write "<td align=right><b>Drywall Foreman<b></td>"
Response.Write "<td valign=middle align=left><input type=text size=30
name=FM value='" & objRecordset("jfman") & "'></td>"
Response.Write "</tr>"
How can I go about creating a drop down list that populated from a
seperate table in the database and when the page is first displayed
brings up the value of the recordset like it is currently doing?

When a Button is clicked in a Form, the JavaScript 'prompt' dialog
pops-up for users to enter any text. When the user clicks OK in the
prompt dialog, the text is populated in a TextBox & the Form posts. I
then retrieve the text using Request.Form.
The problem I am facing is in retaining whitespaces in the text the
user has entered. Assume that the user has entered the following text
in the JavaScript prompt dialog (note the whitespaces in the string):
"abc def ghi jkl"
The double quotes have been added just to show where the string ends;
they aren't a part of the string.
Now when I retrieve the string using Request.Form, this is what I get
(once again please neglect the double quotes):
"abc def ghi jkl"
i.e. irrespective of the number of whitespaces a user has inserted in
between the words in the JavaScript prompt dialog, Request.Form always
replaces all the whitespaces in between the various words in the string
with a single whitespace.
How do I ensure that the whitespaces entered by the user in the
JavaScript prompt dialog are retained by ASP?

I have got a page called view_month which displays records and allows users to update records then returns back to the view_month page. Because my view_month page uses an SQL with the table name as a variable which retrieves its value from the form in the previous page. My problem is that the table name disappears whenever I finish updating and tries to return to the view_month page. How can I retain the variable value so that whenever I updates and return the SQL will still contain the value.

I still have the weirdest problem. I posted that couple of weeks ago and I got too busy to follow up. When I was back, I redid the whole page from scratch and still got the same problem:
I have an Access database containing list of activities for my students, and each activity can be searched by a number of criteria and is linked to a file they can download... The search dn diplay of the results as well as downloading the file from the database work all fine... The problem starts when I have results that would span more than one page... When I click next, the new page displays a list of all records. I Response.write the query to know what is hapenning and I found out that the query reverts to Select * from table and loses the WHERE statement.
I will attach the code that I tried to document as possible.... Most of the code is created by Macromedia Dreamweaver except for the form variables and SQL statement... The code is long so ignore HTML and CSS.

I have a form, which has various text boxes,check boxes etc. The problem is, when the user hits the submit button, if the form validation finds an error,say, the user forgot to fill in a field,the ticks from the check boxes dissapear.
as if the check boxes have reset themselves. How to I stop this? Is there a way to retain check box values if the form is submitted? This is also occurring with my list boxes,too.

I am having 14 textboxes on the form and One data grid control and one
Button That button allows to open new web page (in new window) where in I can
select some products from the list.
The products selected in the list are added in the Grid of my original
form. I use response.redirect by passing parameters for that purpose.
but that wipes out the contents of the textboxes. how can i retain
them.

I have a form which submits data to a new page based on the checkboxes that are clicked corresponding to each row of data. My next page has a cancel button which takes me back to the first page I have to retain the status of the checkboxes that were checked.
How do I do that? The no of checkboxes depends on the no of rows of data returned
I have them named in a for loop as strcheck0, strcheck1 and so on . the data that is submitted to the next page is assigned to the value attribute of checkbox.

Can anyone tell me on how to retain the information that was being key in previously and mark which field was being filled in incorrectly rather than reset all the field to previous value?
I have done checking like this but i think it is not quite user friendly:
function verifyBlank(thisForm){
if (thisForm.TeachersName.value == "none" || thisForm.Lab.value == 0 || thisForm.Class.value == 0 || thisForm.Subject.value == 0 || thisForm.PeriodFrom.value == 0 || thisForm.PeriodTo.value == 0 || thisForm.Day.value == "none" || thisForm.Month.value == "none" || thisForm.Year.value == "none")
{
alert('Incomplete information');
return false;
}
return true;
}

I have an asp driven website using an Access database.
Basically the user arrives to the site selects the product from a list. From their they are directed to another page where they see the starting price and then they can customize the product from a list of options that is also database derived. The result is a final price.
What I would like to do is have the ability for the user to save that product and on their next visit bring it back up along with any other products they saved.
(note...all I have is done using asp classic, access database, and some javascript)
Could someone direct me to a good or source or help me get started on how to create a user logon and retain their user info and how to do the above?

I am developing a membership based website for car auctions. It uses the session object on many pages, most importantly on user personal pages. When the user session ends, i.e., on logout, I use the Session.Abandon to destroy a session object associated with a particular user, and also turn a boolean variable session("Valid_User")=False (which was turned ON at the time of successful login and used on user personal pages for authentication).
But, when I go BACK and browse the previous pages, they still appear with the specific user's data, who logged in last time on the same browser. Why is it so? When I refresh the pages, only then the session variables' values are erased.
Secondly, my site doesn't allow me to login as a different user, even after logout, because I have put a check on the login page so that it doesn't allow a user to login again during his current session, which again means that the logout process doesn't destroy his session.

I have a "Email this page to a friend" form that submits to itself and contains the hidden input value="<%= Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") %>".
The value="<%= Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_REFERER") %>" is to obtain the URL of the page that the person wishes to send.
The problem is, if someone creates an error in any of the input fields, the page submits to itself again and displays the errors. When this happens, the original HTTP_REFERER url address is lost and now replaced with the url of the "Email this page to a friend" page.
Is there a way to retain the original HTTP_REFERER value even though the user refreshes the page?

I need to create a page which updates a products information within a record.
the tables are,
products (ID,CatID,sID)
supplier (sID,sName),
category (CatID, CatName)
The above tables supplier and category have relationships to products by using the sID and CatID
I need to update the product details by having a select/option for a supplier and category but if not changed by the user the value already within products table stays the same, therefore the list must be dynamic so that the first item in the list is the one relating to the value in the products table. Also the value must be the ID numbers but must display the names not the ID's to the users within the select/option.

I'm sure an ASP programmer would be able to create this function within 5 minutes, but I'm just learning and I've fumbled my way through creating a little site content management system for a local community group. I'm a designer and the site looks great (so I'm told) but I just can't get this last page to work. I'm desperate for help!!!
I'm trying to call the values for a drop-down list from a seperate categories table in Access, to add/update records in a main Access table/query. The page/form is used to:
a) diplay/edit existing records; or
b) add new (if cstr = "").
I have finally managed to display the correct selection in the drop-down list for existing records (not sure if code is correct?) but I can't work out how to write changes (edit record) back to the database; or 'save' a new record? I'm also not sure if I should be trying to write data to the table or query? Code:
