Hi, guys:
I am trying debug other people(who has left company)'s ASP code, and had
difficulty understanding the use of a hidden asp page.
The application has an index page, like MyIndex.asp which has nothing but
a couple of other asp files, like
<frameset COLS="0,0,52%, *">
<frame NAME="hidden" SRC="MyHidden.a sp">
<frame NAME="content" SRC="MyContent. asp">
</frameset>
MyHidden.asp is like this:
<!-- #include file="MyHidden. js" -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScri pt RUNAT=Server>
' a LOT of server code retrieving data from database, and populate to
local variables.
Response.Write( "<HTML><HEAD><T ITLE></TITLE>")
Response.Write( "<meta http-equiv='Content-Type' content='text/html'>")
Response.Write( "</HEAD><BODY onBeforeUnLoad= 'unLoadForm()'> ")
Response.Write( "<FORM name='MyForm' ACTION='MyHidde n.asp' METHOD=POST>")
Response.Write( "<TEXTAREA NAME='txtStatus '>" & sStatus & "</TEXTAREA>")
Response.Write( "<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='txtComman d' VALUE=" & sCmd & ">")
Response.Write( "<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='txtSubmit ToManager' VALUE=0>")
Response.Write( "<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='txtReadOn ly' VALUE=" & bReadOnly
& ">")
Response.Write( "<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='txtCount' VALUE=" & iCnt & ">")
Response.Write( "<INPUT TYPE='text' NAME='txtUserId ' VALUE=" & nTimeTrackId
& ">")
Response.Write( "</FORM>")
Response.Write( "</BODY></HTML>")
My question is: with all these "response.write " in MyHidden.asp, I don't
actually see them anywhere on the web page, nor do I know what this hidden
form is for.
What if I want to check the values of some variables? When I added one
more Response.Write( "iCnt=" & iCnt ), the page gives me error.
So... can somebody help me interpret the code? Thanks!

people use them to "store" things, like variable values, etc, for later use.
You write things to them. Since they are in a frameset they dont get
lost/wiped unless the parent does. It's a way around using sessions or
passing values to every form all the time.

It looks like it posts to itself. Do you see in myhidden.asp some code that
handles the post. It would allow to see what it does server side with this
information. My guess would be some kind of navigation tracking system ???
What is the error you have if you add some code tho this page ? You could
also likely just change the frameset to reveal those hidden fields allowing
to see how it evolves as you goes through pages...
Good luck.

Thanks for the reply. I still wonder why this form is not visible from the
web page, and how to check the values to be right.

Yeah...I was so careless. Thanks! Both the server and client side are using
this hidden information. Client side uses it in javascript function to
manipulate other items in other form, and server side uses it to update
database. Now it makes more sense. :)

This frameset declares 4 "columns" - the first and second being 0 wide, the
third column uses 52% of the window width and the forth column takes up the
remainer - in this case 48%
You can view the "myhidden.a sp" page by modifying the first column to be
something other than zero. From the above example, it looks like
"MyContent. asp" page is also zero width.
Anyway, the values stored on this hidden page are available to any client-side
code which can be addressed in any other page using code like this:
window.parent.f rames(0).myForm .txtUserId.valu e
The hidden window is designed to hold common values on the client that any
other HTML page might want to use or reference.
