calling an invisible asp from javascript

[bereza]

Hi everybody,

I click on an image to call a javascript function to go to another by using following code

function func1(){
window.location.href='addToTable.asp?FID=2
}

what i want to do is from the function func1 first call an invisible asp page which does not have any html, to do som controlls (database) and if everything is ok then call window.location.href='addToTable.asp?FID=2 if not it will show a alert message.
how can i fix it?
thanks

I don't know what you mean by "invisible asp page".

The method func1 that you have posted is not correct syntax (and will not work).

Why not forward to the "invisible asp page", do the server-side processing and then redirect (from the server-side) based on the result?

Cheers,
Jeff

Make sure your web page and css validates properly against the doctype you have chosen - before you attempt to debug a problem!

Or use an xmlhttprequest to visit the asp page in "invisible mode"
