Hi…
I’m doing a search page form my work for their library. Since
this is the first time I work with ASP I’m facing some problems.
Each library item has different search data, I was able to build but
I’m stuck at when the user chooses books for e.g it refreshes
the page and the combo box goes to the first item.while I want it to
stay on books.
The second problem is that I need a code for displaying the specific
table chosen by the user from the first combo.
I’ve done it by an if statement but it didn’t work…
This is the code I have come up with:
<html>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" >
<%
Dim strURL
Dim cnnSearch
Dim rstSearch
Dim strDBPath
Dim strSQL
Dim strSearch
strURL = Request.ServerVariables("URL")
strSearch = Request.QueryString("search")
strSearch = Replace(strSearch, "'", "''")
y=request("mymenu")
%>
<b>
<form name="form1" method="get" action="test.asp">
<font color="#32B0AF" size="2">
Search in:
</font>
<select name="mymenu" onchange="document.form1.submit()">

<option value="1">Book</option>

</select>
<% if y>0 then %>
