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 want to clarify the concept of submitting the form to the web server.pHP is just an example here, it applies to any web programming languages.
On page1.php,
<form name="myform" action="otherpage.php" method="post">
means 2 steps here:
1) submit the form called "myform" on page1.php to the web server using
HTTP POST method.
2) open otherpage.php
Also, otherpage.php can be page1.php itself, that means post the page
to itself, or this is called POST BACK.Is that correct? Please advise & comment.
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">
I'm not very familiar with classic ASP, but I need to modify an existing form on an ASP site to make the form data get posted to 2 different locations. Any suggestions on options to accomplish this?
View Replies View RelatedI'm really new to this and want to submit the data entered in a form to my email address. My problem is that I get the email but none of the data is being "grabbed" so although I get the headers I don't actually receive any of the information I really need.
What am I dong wrong? - this is my code:.....
I have this form..which has a table (created from stored procedure
values)..once the table is populated..i have some radio buttons (for
each row of the table) and a main submit button.
On clicking submit..i want to loop through the table..pick up the
first <TDbeing the user ID and the value of the radio button clicked
(currently I have my radio button ID set as UserID_0, UserID_1 ..
etc). And pass those into a stored procedure..
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 been go through a lot of different websites to find out the problem but still cannot find a solution for it. I have an HTML email form which use post method to post the form data to an ASP page. It works fine in Outlook 2000 with IE6 or IE7. However, I updated my Outlook to the version 2003. The HTML email form does not work at all. Once the form is submitted, there are blank values in the ASP page. Just only when I refresh the page which a post back, the value is there.

View Replies View RelatedI 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 was wondering if there is any way to submit data without having to click the submit button -- I have done numerous Google searches, however all of the relevant results were writen in Javascript. Unfortunately, one of the criteria of my assignment is that it needs to be in VBScript. Code:

I want to know if the PostBack concept applies to HTML web-based forms, regardless of what programming technologies we use: For example, ASP, ASP.NET, Java, CGI, etc
PostBack means to send the HTML form to the web server Since most of the time I heard this term in ASP.NET circle, thats why I raise this question.

View Replies View RelatedI have a form where users enter informaiton including a zip code. I was hoping that after they submit their info I could retain that zip code for the next page. The end result would be to have a page with a link that says "Click here for directions to our event!" and have the link go to mapquest directions from their zip code to mine.
Looking at Mapquest's URLs it seems they come in a very standard format that one could easily plug two zip codes into the url and have directions from place to place.The users do not have to log in to enter data into the form (my Google-ing has turned up stuff on session variables, but that seems to require log-ins).
I am gonna play around with this for a while, but if anyone has any pointers or links that could get me going in the right direction.

I am looking at putting a form on one of my pages that inserts data into my database (MySQL)it is possible to submit this form and then when the form is submitted fire an e-mail off to a member of staff to say that a new record has been added
Has anyone had any experience of doing, or trying to do, anything like this (or even know if it's possible)?
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 know this may be too easy for most of you. I am new to ASP code and I am trying to create a form where you can submit via ASP.
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.
Once the form is submitted from an ASP page, how can I direct the output to display at a new asp page? The output is a text variable.

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?

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.
