IFRAME and form variables

I have an ASP script in which I want to control the screen as two frames
If I use a FRAMESET this works fine but the frame geometry is fixed

the script uses POST and hidden fields to transfer the data from step to
step, what I would like is to be able to change the sizes of the frames
or even go from two frames to one and back to two as I go through the
dialogue. So I thought to use IFRAMES instead of a frameset, but now I
have two ASP scripts, one for the IFRAMEs and one for the code to run in
the iframe pages. The form fields are passed and seen by the top iframe
ASP but no longer by the lower code.

I hope that is clear enough
How can I get the form variables in to the lower script?
If not possible, am I better to use a database or server side session
variable to hold the data between steps?

CODE_A
sets one or two iframes with width
one frame runs CODE_B

CODE_B
runs the user dialogue and uses FROM and POST with hidden variables
the FORMs run CODE_A to get to the next step since I want to reset the
frame widths, but I have lost access to the form variables

all help welcome

We have a form that contains an iframe. In the iframe are 3 select boxes (country, state and city). When you select the country, the iframe page refreshes with the appropriate states and does the same thing when you select a state. We did some testing in the different browsers with this method and it appeared that the only browser that it worked reliably in was IE. So, we put some asp code in that ran a browser check and displayed the...

It might be me but... I dont seem to get a Page_Load event when a opening an ASPX in an iFrame. I do geta Page_Load event when an item on the ASPX (inside the iFrame) is clicked but then IsPostBack=False by now!. The ASPX is opened via client side script (into an iFrame) inside a .HTM file (as ASPX postback causes problems in a modal internet explorer dialog if not in an iFrame!) Anyone know how to get around this - i need to...

Is there any way to capture a button click inside an iFrame and perform both an action on that page and one on the parent page? Basically I have a page atm that allows the user to add a record to a table and what I would like to have are save and cancel buttons (or maybe just a save button with a close image on the DHTML "window") on the page that, when save is clicked for instance, will save the record (code in that page) and close the...

I'm having trouble figuring out the proper way to pass this variable in with javascript alone. I'm not used to not being able to use jsp and all the love that is in that. Obviously I know little about javascript! So you get the whole story, the user will begin on a page which has an iframe in it that picks up a parameter http://wildlifedisease.nbii.gov/ecoregions/theirpage.html

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
