Question

Passing Parameters

I am building a simple record entry site without any login requirements. On the INDEX.ASP page, a user enters basic contact information (name, address, etc) into a form. I would like to link a page to this with another form that allows those new users to select from a group of checkboxes. I am unsure how to pass the USERID (keyfield) from INDEX.asp to the second page.

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,
Austin

be sure that the form has the method="post" when you use: request.form("key") when you use "get" you use: request.QueryString

linking from index1.asp to index2.asp:

index1.asp: href="domain.com/index2.asp?Key1=Hello&Key2=World

index2.asp: response.write Request.QueryString("Key1") & " " & Request.QueryString("Key2")

hope this and input from Mike helps

If the form posts to the second page use Request.form("userid") as the value where usrid is the name of the form field. If you want to have the value userid available for more than one page make a seesion variable out of the userid, this will help if they want to update info or for other pages. Session("UserID") = request.form("userid") put this right at the start of the code that inserts the record on the index page
