Transfer Method Without Returning Asp Page

---------------------------------------------
The Execute method allows you to call another ASP page from inside an ASP page. When the called ASP page completes its tasks, you are then returned to the calling ASP page. The overall effect is very similar to a function or subroutine call. Any text or output from the called ASP page will be displayed on the calling ASP page. The Execute method is a more useful alternative to using server-side includes.

In contrast, the Transfer method allows you to transfer from one ASP page to another without returning to the calling ASP page.

There is one mandatory argument.
---------------------------------------------

Fair enough does what I need it to. However, I've run into a glitch. I understand the point about it being like calling a sub which means anything set within the executed page will be considered local and so anything set within it won't work in the calling page. What I don't understand is why the executed page can't read objects which have been set in the calling page before the execute???

Server.Transfer Method...

Got a quick query in relation to the Server.Transfer method available in IIS
5+/ASP. I've got an issue where I want to take a portion of an online app and
extract this out into a web site on its own, so I will end up having two web
sites. This planned to aid problems we've been having with performance, as if
the portion (which is an app in its own right) has problems we then have to
restart the whole site and so bring everything down just because of the
portion of the app which we're having issues with. Taking the portion of the
site will allow us to run it in isolated mode in ISS and so just restrat that
if needed, while not affecting the rest of IIS.

Anyways, I'm in the process of writing a jump page to facilitate the process
of moving from the first site to the new second site, but as we need to reuse
session info created in site 1 I need a way of passing this over to the
second site.

I've been aware of the Server.Transfer but never really used it so I'm not
too sure how I can actually use this. I was planning to write an ASP page
that takes the required info out of session is site 1, calling
Server.Transfere to send it over to the second site. I don't want to do a
Response.Redirect, not wanting the client to do this and not allowing it to
know what info I'm using in the session.

And so, I thought the Server.Transfer would facilitate this, but after
reading some of the documentation on MSDN I'm not sure I can, ie: redirect to
another ASP page in this way and tack on a QueryString holding all the
session info I need, as MSDN says that I'll get an 'ASP 0173 error, "Invalid
Path Character"' error if I have a question-mark '?' in the path, or any
other of a list of invalid chars. But then I need this '?' char to build my
QString ie: XXX.asp?sas=123&jdy=0689...

So what I'm after is some clarification that I can use Server.Transfere in
this way or not, ie to redirect to an ASP page and tack on a QueryString, of
if it just allows for an ASP page without s QString. So then if I want to do
this I might need to use the Response.Redirect method, or some other way!!

MSDN also says: "When you use the Transfer method, the state information for
all the built-in objects are included in the transfer. This means that any
variables or objects that have been assigned a value in session or
application scope are maintained"

....So will I have the session info from site 1 available in site 2 after the
redirect or does this only apply for a Server.Transfer within the same web
(which I think is what it means!).

I don't have an environment up that I can test this on yet so I'm kinda
feeling may wat in the dark here, hence my lengthly post.

Lost Data If Using Server.Transfer Method Only In IE, Not In Firef

Our asp programs seem to have different behaviors when users use IE and firefox. One of most annoying things is the data disappearing problem in IE but not in firefox.(Note: Sometimes a search program can run much faster in Firefox than in IE, don't know why)
For example, I have an internal user interface which they can do different product data
entry, the program will use Server.Transfer to different asp program for data entry.

Page1---UserInterface.asp
Select Case Request("Product")
Case "Sel"
Server.transfer("/Virtualdir1/test1.asp ")

Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir2/Test2.asp")

Case "Bear"
Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir3/test3.asp")

Case "IMED"
Server.Transfer("test4.asp")

Case "AC"
Server.Transfer("/Virtualdir4/test5.asp")

Case Else

End Select

When user finished data entry on test1.asp(second page, the web address will still show UserInterface.asp page as you know), click continue, on the third page if they found something typed wrong, if they click back button in the broswer, all data on the second page is gone. This only occurrs in IE, Firefox is fine.

It's very annoying, how can I fix it, if not, is there any other way?

Can't Get Current Page After Transfer

I'm trying to add logging to my web application, but I found a strange problem. Whenever I execute a Server.Redirect(Page1.asp) I can use the request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME") to get the current page name. However, if I use Server.Transfer(Page1.asp), the value of the server variable equals the refering page (In this case default.asp). How do I get the value of the working page regardless of the transfer method.

ASP Page Not Returning All Fields In Record

I’ve been racking my brains trying to figure out why when I call a record set back with a SELECT * it only brings back some of the fields. It use to be connecting to an access 2000 DB and worked fine but I’ve converted it over to SQL. I’ve installed SQL server DEV edition and imported the data. The desktop is running XP.

Has anyone got any ideas why it only picks some of the fields in the record set and not others? O I’ve tried timeout = 0 on the connection already..

Returning Values - Which Is Faster? ByRef Sub Or Value-returning Function

What is a faster/better coding practice?

Method 1:

Code:
Sub myFunction(byRef x)
x = x + 1 ' do something with x
End Sub

x = 7
myFunction(x)
response.write x ' shows 8
Method 2:

Code:
Function myFunction(x)
myFunction = x + 1 ' do something with x
End Function

x = 7
response.write myFunction(x) ' shows 8

Also discuss considerations when there are more than one variables that need to be changed.

Problem On Calling C# Component Method From Asp Page

I created C# COM+ component. It has two overloaded methods - the method names are same and their signatures are different, one takes two parameters and another takes four. I coded this way: the method with 4 parameters is coded first and then the one with 2 parameters.

I created very simple ASP page to call these two methods. Calling the method with 4 params has no problem. However, calling the method with 2 params I get the error saying:

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0005)
Invalid procedure call or argument: 'SetReferenceValues'
/suitevoyager/testLmx.asp, line 16

How can I solve this problem?

Returning Value

I've created a DLL file that enables you to validate accounts and send emails through the MS Exchange server within the Intranet. This dll can be used from within VB, VBA, VBScript and also ASP VBScript. I'm using it in an ASP page that I've created. The DLL has a "SEND" function that will return a string value containing all the invalid accounts seperated by a semi-colon. A sample of the returning string value would look like, "InvalidAcct1;InvalidAcct2;InvalidAcct3". The DLL works like it is suppose to when used in an ASP, but it will not return the string value. I know the DLL works fine because it returns it when used in a regular VBScript or VB program.Is IIS preventing the string from being returned?

Returning A Value

There are two pages main.asp and phonebook.asp.In the main.asp, there is a textfield, where the phone number will be inserted into it. Next to the textfield, there is an icon that when clicked takes you to the phonebook.asp page.

In the phonebook.asp page, there is a list of the telephone numbers and next to them there is a radiobutton. When one of the radiobuttons is chosen (the telephone number is chosen), the number (value) needs to be inserted in the textfield (main.asp page).How may i do this processing? Preferably i need to use asp together with vbscript or even javascipt.

Returning Order Id

I've got a site with PayPal and Google Checkout payment options. The checkout page formats two HTML forms, containing bespoke cart code - one posts to PayPal, the other to Google Checkout.When an order is placed, it needs to be updated back on my site, so that the order is marked as 'paid' in the database. When this is done with PayPal, I just provide a hidden field in the form called 'invoice' containing my id number for that transaction. This is returned in my IPN, and I update the database accordingly. However, I can't find a similar field in Google. Their example code all seems to be in XML and is WAAAAAAAAY more complicated than I need it to be. I just need to send a value with my cart code to Google Checkout, and have that value returned after the transaction has completed.
I've set up Google Callback, and the page is being called and the order is being written to my google log txt file, I just need this to contain my order id number for the transaction so I can just add the logic to update the database based on this id number.
