Request object

[BJ Freeman]

I have passed a form with a post.
the form is generated from a dB and can change.
the page that accepts the post must get the input name and value from the form passed to it.

Request.Form(I)(1) give me the value, but I can not retrieve the name.

I know it is something simple. but cannot seem to get to work.

here is the compete line
<input name="<%= trim(Request.Form(I)(1))%>" type="hidden" value="<%= trim(Request.Form(I)(2))%>">

Mhm.. this seems ASP/VBS not ASP/JScript.. in that case, you're OT.

Anyway, Form is a Collection of Request Object, so you can use the Key for
obtain the name of a element.

For Example:

Request.Form.Key(1)

Rubbish, JScript is an ECMAScript implementation and so completely on

[please do not use html on usenet]

Serverside ASP scripting:

<%
result = request.form("inputname")
%>

If this is in serverside javascript, "request.form" is case sensitive

Sorry for my english, maybe is not so clear.
I mean: If you use ASP/VBS, you're Off Topic. Not with ASP/JScript.
And your code *seems* VBS (for trim() use). Of course, trim could be a
JScript custom function (but usually in JScript the way is add a trim()
method to String object), this is the reason 'cause I wrote "seems VBS",
and not "is VBS".

Fair enough, a misinterpretation on my part, sorry. I haven't been
reading the OP's actual posts because they are in - Content-Type:
multipart/alternative; - instead of plain text (as is required).

No, I think ZERO is right. This is VBS code, not JScript code. In ASP,
as far as I know, the following code is ASP:

<% =Split("THIS IS A TEST")(0) %>

where the following is JScript:

<% ="THIS IS A TEST".split(" ")[0] %>

The OP was using both the VBScript form of Split, and the VBScript form
of array indexing. Unless I am missing your point, I believe this is OT.

Yup, JScript is exactly that. But the text that OP submitted was
written in VBScript, not JScript, hence ZERO's comment.

my apologies for the non plain text. did not notice.
First this is java script.
trim is my function I use.
the request object, in javascript does nto support what I wanted to do.

so I improvice and parse the Request.Form() thru splits,

<%
var fromvars =new String(Request.Form());
var i=5;

var options = fromvars.split( "&" )
%>
<%for (var loop=i; loop < options.length; loop++)
{%>
<%var optionsparts =options[loop].split('=');%>
<input name="<%= trim(optionsparts [0])%>" type="hidden" value="<%=
trim(optionsparts [1])%>">
<%}%>

Not sure how you evaluated that line of code to be VBA. It is JavaScript.

Not sure where you got the split from. I did not show any code with split in
it in the first two messages.
I did use trim, however that is a JavaScript set of functions I use.

VBA? Maybe you mean VBS..?

Anyway, I don't understand what you're talking about. Which code?

*doat* You are right... I read it once, and did something else, and did
not re-read it. Sorry :)
