getting form variables from previous page

Dan

page 2 - how do I grab the form variables ?

Here's a nice, simple way to pass values from one page to another:
(VB.NET code)

'Add data to the context object before transferring
Context.Items(" myParameter") = x
Server.Transfer ("WebForm2.aspx ")

Then, in WebForm2.aspx:

'Grab data from the context property
Dim x as Integer = CType(Context.I tems("myParamet er"),Integer)

Of course there are a number of ways to pass values from one page to
another, such as using the querystring, cookies, session,
context, saving to a temporary table in the database between each page, etc.
You'll have to decide which technique is best for your application.
Here are several good articles on the subject to help you decide.

Hi, Wonder if anyone can help with this problem: I am using an app with several pages, using a session to track vars between the pages, and using an image map to re-direct back and forwards between the pages. The way I redirect is when the image map is clicked on, it posts to a page called 'control.php' which passes the POST vars to the

Hi there, When filling out a web form on a php page that is submitted to a search which lists the results based on the criteria provided (in the form), all works fine and as expected.

(This does not actually happen in Firefox browser but most of my...

OK, this may be impossible since I'm using 3rd party shopping cart ASP software, but I've been able to finagle a lot of other stuff I thought wouldn't work, so here we go: I'm using a form in which users enter numbers to be calculated into a square footage cost. Upon submitting, the results page uses ASP to give the total and the chance to add the new totalled item to the cart or try a new calculation. Part of the cart's software has a...

Hi, I try to write an asp query form that lets client search any text-string and display all pages in my web server that contain the text. I have IIS 6.0 on a server 2003.

Hello, I've got a form that runs over 5 pages. I need the last page submit button to post all of the answers at one time from the previous 5 pages (to another server). I'd like to see the last page of the form post all answers in clean ?= format as though all form elements were from one page. I use GET to pass name/value pairs from the first to the second page because no JS is needed to use Get once, and then I use a single hidden

I am quietly going insane on this project. I've never worked on a project like this one before. All my previous sticky forms were for data entry, not editing. I don't know how to display the form with data from the database, allow the user to update it, and then display the form again with POST data. I can get the data out of the database and get the user updates back into the database, but how do I get the filled-out form back to the user...
