maintaning data

[lyealain]

i am dealing with a page with many input data...

if part = "" then
response.redirect("stupid.asp?res=blank")

just because of one data missing... all my previous key in data were gone...!!!!

is it needed to pass under response.redirect("stupid.asp?part=" &a& "image="&b& "res=blank") ????? but a lot of data.. can pass until die...

yes, I think you'll have to handle all the data in one method or another, but there are ways to make it go fast:

'save all the data in session-level variables
for each x in request.form
   session(x) = request.form(x)
next
 
'or save all the data in querystring data
qstring = "stupid.asp?res=blank"
for each x in request.form
   qstring = qstring & "&" & x & "=" & request.form(x)
next
response.redirect qstring

Let me know if this helps.

If the inputs are named as you say, than the above code will create three session-level variables with names:
session("A")
session("B")
and session("C")
and session("A") will be set equal to request.form("A") etc.

Session-level variables (and application-level variables for that matter) are very easy to use in asp, you always refer to them as

session("variableName")

, they never have to be defined (you don't have to say dim session("C")) they are available on any page of your website, and they stay active as long as a particular user stays on your website. Try them out and see if they work for you.
