When we click the submit button as the following form, my understanding is it will submit the form to the web server, and then open page2.jsp. web server has some area to store the name-value pairs?? I just want to understand how it works internally.
<FORM ACTION="page2.jsp" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="username" value="joe">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" value="submit form">
</FORM>
In page2.jsp
<%= request.getParameter("username") %> ....
A website has a form with the first line as written below:
<form METHOD="POST" action="submission_form.asp" name="FrontPage_Form1" webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
Can I, if I match the field names used, submit my form and have it sent to their server as if the submission had come from their server?
Could I use:
<form METHOD="POST" action="http://www.example.com/submission_form.asp" name="FrontPage_Form1" webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
and I match all of the field names? Would that work?
Could I harm their "database", or whatever they are doing with the form submission?
Since you are going to ask "why". My reasons are noble enough. It would just make things much easier.
I'm trying to submit an image object, along with some other text fields to
another web server from within an ASP page but am stuck on getting the image
to be submitted with the form.
In a bit more detail:
1. When this particular page is executed, I want the server to pull an image
from a db (stored as a BLOB) along with a few other text fields. This part
is easy and I have no problems with it.
2. I want to submit the image, along with the text fields to a second
webserver which typically accepts its input from a form (ie, the second
webserver usually has a webpage where a user enters some information into
form and browse for a file. When clicking submit, the form fields along with
the file are submitted to the second server).
The reason for this is that I'm trying to migrate from one web based photo
album to another which uses a data structure that is complicated and
difficult to interface with, so I'm using the web based image upload
functionality of the new album. Code:
I have a field which stores a maccaddress. It has a constant length of 12 characters.
e.g 000000000012
When reading from the database and displaying that field I want to display it in the following format:
00-00-00-00-00-00-12.
So I want to split the string and add a "-" after every two characters.
Can you please tell me how this can be done?
I have a form that has the option to upload a file at the bottom. If you select a file it works fine but if you leave file selection blank the forms bombs. This is not how I want it to work. On the form you need to use ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" in the form tag.
On the processing page I need to use Set to assign a variable to the form data. I tried using IF on the variable assigned to the file path but it bombs out telling me "This function is not supported". Is there any other way I can check to see if curQes has a value assigned to it?
I have some ASP server-side code that works perfectly when the client is running on Windows (IE, Netscape, Firefox, etc.) but doesn't work at all when the client is running on Macintosh (IE, Omniweb, Safari, etc.) This is the client-side Javascript code:
View Replies View RelatedI 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?
I am a new programmer seeking a right way for transferring data between forum to forum, as i am creating a site wich have a page keeping 20's of server controls like drop down list and text boxes the value of ddl2 changging on change of ddl1 and displaying its corresponding value in text box and i have 10 rows in this way and i wanna display all selected values of server controls in next page as report.

View Replies View RelatedI have a form which dynamically loads questions and answers depending on dept.
So the form input type has a value field of the actual answer text which is pulled from the database.
Sometimes the form can be 5 questions, sometimes more and sometimes less. So after the user submits the form, I gather the static input (ie. name, address, email, etc..) but
1. how do I loop to Request.Form for the dynamically generated answers if I dont know how many there may be?
2. How do I then take that data and use it in my Insert statement?
The questions with each answer will automatically generate the imput name field with the qid (question ID) which could be 1-?
i have this page that inserts a form data into database... the problem is that it wouldn't let me insert my content into the database because of syntax problem... more specifically if i have an apostrophe.. it wouldn't let me insert due to the restriction of my code... is there a way to rewrite my code below so that i can insert apostrophe.. right now if there are ' in my content the strSql will screw up...

Does anyone know of anything or any issues that may cause HTML form box (shopping cart) to reset or not keep its posted value?
out of approx 2000 users, only 15 are having this issue and the common thing between them is using Mac's (Different browsers but mostly IE5 and Safari. even made one install latest firefox) instead of PCs.
Now I know this goes against everything I ever knew about SERVER SIDE SCRIPTING, but im really reaching for straws.
I am developing a program now. This program has a front page for user to select a project. After the user hit "submit" bttion, he will go to another page which has a top menu.
User can see different part of project information by clicking there. I hope no matter in which order the user click on the items in the top menu, it will show the record based on this project until he select a different project. To realize this function, should I use cookies, or there are better ways to do that? It will be very helpful if someone can provide some sample code here.
I have this code...
If Request.Form("Name") = "" Then
Response.Redirect "error.asp"
End if
If the browser does a GET against this page, sometimes the Response.Redirect doesn't happen. It is as if there is form data being sent on a GET. Has anyone seen this before?

Will it be by running some sort of a batch file?The database structure of both the databases are the same, only there are 3 fields more in the SQL Server DB than the ACCESS DB which need not be exported.
Is there a way to get data submitted to the server without using a form? At the moment I have a very complex form that takes a very long time to load (about 30 seconds), and at intervals I want to send save commands back to the server so that the dynamic information on the page can be saved. The problem is that if I do it the normal way it's frustrating for the user because they have to wait another 30 seconds for the page to reload.
I've also tried using a hidden IFrame and submitting that, but it slows the page's initial load down even more and is causing a bit of an administration nightmare. Also, the program stalls while it waits for a response (success/failure) to come back to the client.

I am using SQL 2000 database and MS Server 2003.
I am pulling in data from a sql table. For some reason, when I include
the following line:
<tr><td><b><%if rs("Street_dir")<> "" then response.write
rs("Street_dir") & " " end if%>
<%=rs("Street_num")%> <%=rs("Street_name")%> <%=rs("Street_suf
fix")%></b></td></tr>
then the following line does not display:
<tr><td><%=rs("remarks")%></td></tr>
The REMARKS data is blank. But, if I remove the upper address line, then
the REMARKS appears. The address is 1111 Main so that does not seem to
be the issue. The address information is VARCHAR fields, 255 characters.

Is it possible if i wanna append xml data and upload picture at a same time using the same form?
The problem i'm facing now is, when i add the 'multipart/form-data', i can't append the xml data
I know there's one solution, using 2 FORM but the project i'm doing now is designed to be put them both (file type for upload and textarea for append) together
Besides, i have no idea how to encode or decode the posted data.
This isn't actually causing a problem, but it's odd. I am getting additional data in the data posted by a form on a particular search script I have. I didn't even notice it (since it wasn't causing a problem) but I outputted the form data to screen just out of curiosity I found the following attached to the end of some data: §or=ANY
So for example, one part of the string might be:
&type=Brochure§or=ANY&publication=Evening%20Standard§or=ANY&etc.
It doesn't appear to be affecting anything, but I'm curious as to what that §or=ANY actually is.
I have made a form for users to place an order. When they select the submit button, the user is taken to a form where the user must select to confirm or back to modify.
My problem happens when the user selects the back button (either on the tool bar or on the button provided in the form). I would like the form to remember what the user had just inputted when they go back but currently all entries are blank.
1. A Form which is a drop down menu, posts selected value to the same page.
2. This page connects to a database and depending on the selection from the form. the results are displayed for that selection.
3. This page needs to refresh to pull updated data from the data base.
Heres the problem..
I have the form and page pulling the correct information and displaying it on the page, but when the page does a refresh the value selected from the form is lost and then no results will show.
I want to display multiple records on a form. The user has the choice of editing 1 or more records and then saving the changes. What would be the basic code I need to save the changed records? How would I capture the individual changes?
Right now the only thing that I can get to save is one record per page, not multiple records on a page, because the request.form variables come in in an array format when I put more than one record on a page.
I am using enctype="multipart/form-data" in my form.
Everything has worked for past 2 years and I have not changed the code in the slightest. (1)
I pass some value to another page and this has worked for as long without any tweaks needed. (2)
Now (2) no longer picks up the values submitted by (1) for some unknown reason. If I take away the enctype, the data is passeed through but it's wasted as the form is to upload a file.
Would any change on the server or network be to blame? What do people suggest?
