I am creating a form that has 5 steps/pages. Each page contains about 20 fields. But I don't want to write them until they submit on the last page. I figured out that I can use hidden fields to carry the data from the previous forms forward. If should bascially work like this:
But the problem I am having is when I submit page 4 page 5 won't load. No error, it just won'tload. It seems to be overburdened. Is there a max on the number of fields it can pass? Is there a better way to go about doing this that someone can suggest? Or a suggestion that someone can make to fix this problem?
I am passing variables in hidden form fields and have got it working fine. However, if the variable value has a space in it then Request.Form("fieldname") only returns the first part of the variable upto the space and the remainder is lost.
I can pass such variables in the URL using URLEncode (and a URLDecode function) but this particular form is posting to the same page. Do I have to do some kind of encoding again to format the space properly and then decode it again?
I'm having trouble passing hidden fields between forms. I have a total of four forms. I have the 1st form passing its field to the 2nd form, and the 2nd form passing its field to the 3rd form, but the 1st form's field then is not passed into the 3rd form. So obviously, my summary form (the 4th form) is not getting the 1st form's field or the 2nd form's field, only the 3rd form's field. Code:
I have a asp page created which pulls information from an access database. One of the things it pulls from the database is the address. I want to put a link on this page which when clicked will open a smaller new window asking the user to input their address. Once they input the address and hit submit, the 2 addresses, user inputted (as starting point) and the one from database (ending point) needs to be inputted such that a url is formed, leading to the directions page on yahoo or mapquest or any other site.
My question is how do I take the ending address and pass it over to this new page (using http_referrer???) and then construct the url to the directions page.

I have a form in which if i check one checkbox it makes 2 textboxes invisible. Thats working fine.( I am using java script to perform this)Now when user fill the form and hit submit and if some required field is missing than it forces the user to go back to form and complete it. While going back it retains all the values for all the fields.It also retails the checkboxs but even though the checkbox is checked now but textboxes which should be hidden are visible.
I have declared a Hidden field called Update in my form. I have checked before the submit that the value does actually get set, but after Submission the value of Update is empty. I have checked everywhere and this is the only place in the page that this value is set.
Does anybody have any idea why my value is being lost on submit. My form is declared : <FORM NAME="myForm" action="AgentDetail.asp" method="post">
The result should be 3, not 4 (only the fields which names - or IDs - start with an 'item'). Note: I'm not satisfied with the solution of naming the fields with same name "item" and then split the array to get their values and read the ubound of array. I would like to keep the names of the fields as I stated in the example.
i wrote a script in asp/vb script that validates form fields. all works fine, apart from the fact that alerts are being shown against the empty form fields when the page loads the first time.
so, validation should not be carried out when the page loads the first time. my friend challenged me and said i can achieve this "using a hidden form field or even the submit button" and submitting the page to itself
i was more thinking of using session variables or a session cookie, but does anyone know how you could accomplish this using a hidden form field?

For customers to fill in payment/card details (pre-populating details if details submitted were invalid and user had to re-fill in details)
confirmorder.asp:
Display the credit card details in hidden fields and also the order details from Database

2) If payment.asp submit to payment.asp then 2.1) I could get page to pre-populate details on payment.asp if card details are invalid BUT 2.2) How could I direct user to confirmorder.asp back to payment.asp with details pre-populated 1.2.2) If I Response.Redirect, hidden fields cannot be populated by reading in Request.form!

My problem is this: This database has a field called "b_name" which contains the first, middle (if any) and last names of registered users. The table also has corrosponding other demographics pertaining to each registered user.
I've used the code below to parse the full names in "b_name" in the original table and put the names in another new table which has 3 fields, "FirstName" "MiddleName" & "LastName".
My problem is the fact that the way the names are stored in the original table and the parsed names in the new table do not correspond. Code:
I want to take the contents of many fields of various datatypes (varchars and text) and combine them into a single "junk" field that I will perform SQL Server free text searching upon, e.g.:
tblArticles Title Subtitle ArticleText
CombinedField [Title, Subtitle, and Article text smashed together]
Is it possible to create a query or T-SQL stored proc that would do this? Is SQL Server DTS a better approach? It needs to be built for each row in the table, and it needs to happen regularly.
