how to transfer data from a Web Page to another one?

Question

Hi.
I need some help, I want to transfer the input data from a Web Page to another one, I'm working in ASP using Visual Basic language. I guess I need to use Post and Get method, but I don't know how to do it. Can anybody help me, please?
I really apreciate samples of the code.

Answer 1

Is this page inside the same application? If so, you can use Server.Transfer and the request querystring will survive, since there's no round tripping.

i.e.

Dim Fred, Bob
Fred = Request("Fred")
Bob = Request("Bob")

If Bob = "Yes, send me to the other page" then
Server.Transfer "BobPage.asp"
End if

...and then BobPage.asp can also query Request("Bob")

Answer 2

Switch to ASP.NET and you won't need to transfer the form data to another web page. Since ASP.NET uses the postback model (a much more elegant solution) the data entered into a web form is simply sent back to the same page.

You can catch the "post back" in the code with

if (!this.Page.IsPostBack)
{
// postback
// process the input data
}
else
{
// initial load of the page
// display the input form
}

Now you've reduced what would have taken two files to just one.

Answer 3

to get one web page to send data to another you need to either use forms or on the link that a user clicks on include get information in the form url.asp?var1=val1&var2=val2...

If you don't want the user to see what information is being sent in a form use a hidden field
