submit button in asp

hi all,
*****short version of my problem****
I used this code...

<input type="button" name="btn1" onClick="docume nt.location.rel oad
(true)" value="Reload">

but it only works once! After I hit it once, all subsequent button hits
just
keep showing old data. Does anyone know what is wrong?

****long version of my problem****
basically i have a text box that you can type something in and then hit
submit. the data in the text box gets saved into an access database
and I have the *action* parameter of the form set to the same asp page
to bring up the page again, but I check and see if there is something
stored in the database and it puts it back on the screen. (You end up
with the same page that comes poplulated with the last value you typed
into it except in my case I only get it to stick around once!)
I have turn off a caching using the
response.expire s = -1
response.addhea der "pragma", "no-cache"
...etc...
if anyone could help i would greatly appreciate!!!

How about:

http://grizzlyweb.com/webmaster/javascripts/refresh.asp
window.location .reload(true);

Or:

http://www.htmlgoodies.com/tutors/refresh.html
onClick="histor y.go(0)"

or:

http://developer.irt.org/script/82.htm
onClick="window .location.href= window.location .href"

Ok thanks acutally i have tried
window.location .reload(true);
window.history. go(0)
and they dont work!

but i haven't tried

window.location .href=window.lo cation.href
so i will try this first thing tomorrow.

what i cant believe is that why is it so hard?
forgeting the database..is there just a simple way that when you hit
the submit button, the data in the text box remains? oh well, thanks
for your help!

I want to understand the difference between submit button and regular button: <input type="submit"> and <input type="button">. My understanding is that submit button will send the entire HTML form to the web server, but regular button won't. I have a problem that needs to pass HTML elements data back and forth in several ASP pages. I am using regular button to do that. But what's the approaches?? Please advise. Thanks!

I have a form I want to submit to itself. I want to be able to type in a list of numbers and submit the form and have that list show up on the same form under the text box I typed them into and the buttons. The problem is when I post a form to itself, the Enter key will not submit the form, it only clears the contents of the text box. The only way I can submit is to click the submit button. Here is a simplified version of my code that I...

Hey guys, I've decided to stop banging my head against the wall and just ask you guys for the answer. I can't seem to find it. I have a form in which I have multiple submit buttons; only, I'm using button tags, not input tags to do it. It seems that IE6 is treating all the button elements as being successful on submit. This is, to say the least, surprising since the Spec is pretty clear that it should.

I want to submit a form but without a submit button. That's to say, I want that by giving a definite code in a field and then press <ENTER> the form will be submitted. For Example <form name="search_form" method="post" action="search.php"> ..... .... Code: <input type="text" name="code" onKeyPress="if (event.keyCode == 13) {document.search_form.submit()};">

So.. I have a form that submits to an ASP.net site made in C-sharp. The ASP site is not mine, i do not have the server side code. When I submit from my form by pressing the Submit button, I get different results than when I use a javascript submit: form1.submit();. I think the javascript submit is working as it should, since I want the server to process an __EVENTTARGET posting. When I click the submit button, it does not process the...

Hi, I'd like to use a button to save and then submit a form. I can set the onlick of the button to mahButton_click or submit, but I can't figure out how to do both. It looks like c# can't call a form's submit. I've found how to post programatically, but I need to use the form's target attribute so that the response goes into another frame, and I can't figure out how to do that programatically.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
