Forms that don`t have text boxes??

[NikkP]

Hi Im trying to display something in a Form from a dB, I know how to do this but i then need to resubmit this form to a different table in the dB, what I would like to do is display something within a form but not in a text box i would like it to appear as though it was just in a <td> tag?? Any ideas?

Thanks

What you need to do is create the web page containing the data on-the-fly from the cgi program. Tracy Dryden

Im using ASP and have no cgi experience, im doing a final year Computing project.

Is there any way in HTML/CSS that i can display something from a dB in a form without it looking like it is in a form.

Thanks for your help.

You could display it in a table, and then have the same data in a bunch of hidden vars... I'm not sure what you r asking for. Do you want to be able to edit the data? Can you post an example of what you mean (on another page u saw it on??)?? -gerrygerry

Try something like this: You do the same thing as you would for the form.


<%
Set MyConn = Server.CreateObject(&quot;ADODB.Connection&quot
MyConn.Open &quot;DSN=connection&quot;
SQL = &quot;SELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE ID=&quot; & ID
Set GD = MyConn.Execute(SQL)
IF NOT GD.EOF THEN
NAME = trim(GD(&quot;NAME&quot)
DES = trim(GD(&quot;DES&quot)
GD.MoveNext
END IF
GD.Close
Set GD = Nothing
MyConn.Close
Set MyConn = Nothing
%>

<table><tr><td>
<br>
<b><%= NAME %></b><br>
<%= DES %><br>
<br>
</td></tr></table>
