Hi,
Is it possible to get the page1's form values to page2. I know about submit button and submit function but when I am trying to get the values in page 2 with the help of Request.form("FieldName") it gives me error: Request is undefined.
Can anyone help me with this.
My code is something like this:
Page1:
in html:
[HTML]<INPUT id="FieldName" maxLength="35" name="FieldName">
<input id="Button1" onclick="javascript :Submit()" type="button" value="Continue" name="Button1">
[/HTML]
the javascript function is: - function Submit() {
-
document.forms[0].submit();
-
window.location.href = "page2.aspx"
-
}
-
Page2:
vbscript :
x = Request.Form("FieldName")
Thanks.

Don't set the location.href if you're submitting. Set the action property of the form instead to this location.
Thanks for the Reply,
As you set I tried that also. If my form is
<form id="frm1" name="frm1" action="page2.aspx" method="post" runat="server">
and the button is
<input id="Button1" onclick="javascript :Submit()" type="button" value="Continue" name="Button1">
and javascript is
document.forms[0].submit();
It submits the form but wont forward to the next page.
Waiting for your reply,
Thanks.
Don't set the location.href if you're submitting. Set the action property of the form instead to this location.
In your code, you are submitting the form to page2.aspx and then redirecting it to the same page, ie. page2.aspx. If that is the case, then you don't need to redirect it.
But if you need to redirect it to some other page, then after processing the form data in page2.aspx, add this to the end of your ASP code... - Response.AddHeader("Location","page3.aspx");
I am sorry if I am not clear, Iam new to XML.
So from your message what I understand is if you mention the action in form tab then it directs you to the mentioned page(in action). But its not doing that.
Its submitting the text but not forwarding to the next page and if I am transfering it to next page(with the statement window.location.href = "page2.aspx"). there I cannot able to get the submitted value from the previous page as I said in the 1'st post.
Any suggestions.........

If it submits the text, it should submit to the action page. Which pagedo you want to forward to?
I want to direct it to page 2 and its not directing automatically so I am using
window.location.href = "page2.aspx" in the javascript of page1.aspx
But the problem is when I am tring to retrieve page1 form's data by using the statement Request.Form("FieldNameofPage1'sControl") its gives me error:
Request is undefined.
If it submits the text, it should submit to the action page. Which pagedo you want to forward to?
So that means the form doesn't submit.
Post the client-side code (load the page and view source in the browser).
Instead of [html]<input id="Button1" onclick="javascript:Submit()" type="button" value="Continue" name="Button1">[/html]try this....[html]<input id="Button1" type="submit" value="Continue" name="Button1"></input>[/html]
PS: Is there any special reason to use onclick="javascript:Submit()"?

Page1.js: - Function submit(){
-
document.form.submit();
-
window.location.href = "Page2.aspx" // If I remove this line page1 is not
-
// forwarding to Page2

}

According to the above code the answer should be name entered by the user on the first page
If I use the button type=submit and in form tab action="page2.aspx" method = "post", its not going to the next page, even if it goes to the next page getting the error Request is undefined.
Thanks.

Hi hsriat,
I tried type=submit, problem with this is it won't forward to the next page when u specify action="page2.aspx",
and why I am using onclick="javascript :Submit()" is bcz I have to validate the fields on the form and then submit and move to the next page.
I already posted the code, why don't u try once
If you find something please lemme know.
Thanks

PS: Is there any special reason to use onclick="javascript:Submit()"?
Didn't you try the common way of validation?
ie.[html]<form action="action.php" method="get | post" onsubmit="return validate()">
<!--
form inputs
-->
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Continue"></input>
</form>[/html]See if this helps you.
I tried my problem is not with submission, my major problem is Request.Form
This statement is the main cause of error.
Accordingly this staement should return the fields value whatever we are calling but it won't recognize Request. The error is Request is undefined.
Do I have to include any system files or inhert something?????
Thanks.

NawazAhmed, please enclose your posted code in [code] tags (See How to Ask a Question).
This makes it easier for our Experts to read and understand it. Failing to do so creates extra work for the moderators, thus wasting resources, otherwise available to answer the members' questions.
Please use [code] tags in future. Thanks!

Request.Form should be within server-side tags. JavaScript will not recognise it.
What do you mean by that? Could you please explain me clearly.
It would be better if you can give me an example.
Thanks.

I guess... - var x = <%Request.Form("txtName")%>;
Thanks. Now I understand that the submitted data can be requested from the server side only.
Thanks alot.
I guess... - var x = <%Request.Form("txtName")%>;
Glad to hear that you got it working. Post again if you have any more questions.
