You submit the form as normal, but on the page it is submitted to is where
you add the values to the Session Variables.
Coding "off the cuff" is dangerous for me but it would look something like
this on the second page. If the Session Variable is called "Person" and the
form field is called "MyName" then:
Session("Person") = Request.Form("MyName")
From here it will stay in the Session Variable as long as the Session is
alive or until you change it to some other value. It will be available to
any page at anytime after that as long as it is the same Session.
To retreive it into a variable:
strMyString = Session("Person")
To display it in the browser:
Resonse.write Session("Person")
