Echo data from one form to anouther

[kejar31]

I have an ASP form that I created that consists of 3 pages
The fist on asks you to enter your personal information and some billing info. When you hit submit I have the form POST to the second ASP form I call confirm.asp

The second form ( confirm.asp ) simply asks you to confirm the information you entered. I was able to retrieve that information by creating hidden input forms and using <%=request.form(“XX”)%> in the value field then I would just simply readd <%=request.form(“XX”)%> to the back end of the HTML code between the tags to have it both display the info they entered and to add it to an input so I could therefore have a confirm button submit the information to a database.

Example of code
<td width=&quot;377&quot; height=&quot;24&quot;><input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;ISDN&quot; size=&quot;3&quot; value=&quot;<%=Request.Form(&quot;ISDN&quot%>&quot;><%=Request.Form(&quot;ISDN&quot%></td>

this all works great. The database updates just fine and I get a confirmation in which the user can use that back button and correct if they notice a mistake.

Now the problem is the next page

The way I have the information travel to the next page is by using a custom confirmation from the second page. Now what I really want is for the user information to travel from to confirm page to the third one so when the user presses confirm they can move on to a new bill without having to reenter the name ect. ect .
The only problem is since I’m not using a POST to *.asp and the <%=request.form(“XX”)%> is not working. Although I can get the get an echo through the confirmation field component I cannot get it to insert into a form.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to handle this?? Any help would be greatly appreciated

I don't know much about ASP but using the Session object might help you out. Using the ASP built-in Session object your variables (form info) can be used in any ASP page you reference as long as the user is in the same session (window). Also, there is a Microsoft: Active Server Pages (ASP) forum that might be of help to you.

You can pass the parameter to the third page via the second page a couple of ways

From second page(to send)

Using a link: thirdpage?value1=<%value1%>&value2<%=value2%>

or Response.Redirect&quot;thirdpage?value1=<%value1%>&value2<%value2%>&quot;

Then on third page (to receive)
<%
Dim Value1
Dim Value2
Value1=Request.QueryString(&quot;Value1&quot Value2=Request.QueryString(&quot;Value2&quot
%>

Then use

<%
Response.Write Value1
Response.Write Value1
%>
to display.

Thanks for the quick response guys. I got it working by adding the script <%Session(“Xxsesion”) = request.form(“XX”)%> to the second page.
Xxsesion = the Session name
XX = Formfield on the current form

Then I entered this script into the third page, on the XX form value, to retrieve the Session information
<%=Session(&quot;XXSsession&quot%>
