Hello..!!
I've been learning how to build dll's in Vb lately
what I want to know, is how can I send an Html Form to a component. Y know how to send individuals elemements based on request , but I want to recive the entire form in the componente to do all the request proccessing there,

I hope you understand me since my english is a little poor.

Thanks so much!!!!!
 
First, set a reference in the vb project to the ASP environment. Then, you can pass the request object right into ASP:

Public Sub processHTML(myRequest as Request)
Dim myVariable as String
myVariable = myRequest.Form("myField")
End Sub

The syntax is probably bad, but you get the idea.
 

Follow these steps:

In the html form set the action property to an ASP page where you will instantiate your VB component.

In the VB Dll set a reference to the following libraries
COMSVCS type library
Microsoft ASP object type library
( i don't remember the name of these libraries quite that well)

In your VB Dll include the following code

Dim objContext As COMSVCSLib.ObjectContext
Dim objRequest As ASPTypeLibrary.Request

Private Sub Class_Initialize()
Set objContext = GetObjectContext()
Set objRequest = objContext("Request")
End Sub

and then you can use objRequest just as you would use the intrinsic ASP request object and process the HTML form through your VB Dll.

Good Luck!!
