Posting form data to another page

[Hamayun Khan]

Hi

I have Two pages Default.aspx and Default2.aspx

Default.aspx has the following code


<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/Main.master" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" title="Untitled Page" %>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">

<form id="searchform" runat=server action=Default2.aspx method=post>
First Name :: <asp:TextBox ID="Name" runat=server ></asp:TextBox>
Last Name :: <asp:TextBox ID="Lname" runat=server></asp:TextBox>
<asp:Button UseSubmitBehavior=true runat=server />
</form>

</asp:Content>

and Default2.aspx has label control and Default2.aspx.vb has the following code

<%

Partial Class Default2
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Label1.Text = Request.Form("Name")
End Sub
End Class

%>

but this doesn't work.
I don't know how i get the form data. Please Help.

Hello,

I can't say for 100%, but my best bet is that ASP.NET is not using you're literal ID's on the client, so the post back to Default2.aspx uses different names for your form fields...

You may want to open up the source of Default.aspx, find the <input> tags and check their name properties, since that is what you will have to use within the Request.Form("xxx") function...

Hope thats the case,

Thanks for Help.

It is working well for one page. I have to post form data from more than one page. In that case the ids are auto generated and they are not same on different pages.

I m new to asp.net. I don't know how to use session in asp.net if someone give me some hints about session i can store the values on click event of button to session variables.
