[bugeditor]

Hi,
Can anybody please help me with snippet..Just..Howto pass client side javascript variables to asp session variables..

Say I have following
<script language=javascript>

Myfunc(){
var myvar1 = x;
var myvar2 = y;

// I want them here to be trapped into session variables
//above say myvar1 into session(&quot;myvar1&quot and myvar2 into session(&quot;myvar2&quot


}

</script>
Is it possible..If so can anybody

regards

It is not possible to call directly an asp varable from client side script.
But u may use a submit form to initialize the asp variables.
Or u could use Remote Scripting Object. ________

One way would be to pass the variables to a new window running an asp script to store.

Example.

MainPage.htm contains the following:
<script>
function SetVars(strName, intAge){
myVar1 = strName;
myVar2 = intAge;
URL = &quot;StoreVars.asp?Var1=&quot;+myVar1+&quot;&Var2=&quot;+myVar2;
window.open(URL,&quot;&quot;,&quot;height=10,width=10,top=10,left=10&quot;
}
</script>

StoreVars.asp contains the following:
<%
Session(&quot;UserName&quot=Request(&quot;Var1&quot
Session(&quot;UserAge&quot=Request(&quot;Var2&quot
%>
<script>self.close();</script>

This is one way, it's an alternative to reloading the current window. You could pop a relevant message in the StoreVars window - it's only visible for a moment.

This should do it

The Client side

<script language=javascript>
Myfunc(){
var myvar1 = x;
var myvar2 = y;
location.href='

http://www.mymachine/myasp.asp?myvar1='+x+'&myvar2='+y';

}
</script>

The Server Side

<%
Response.Status = &quot;204&quot;
Session(&quot;myvar1&quot = Request(&quot;myvar1&quot
Session(&quot;myvar2&quot = Request(&quot;myvar2&quot
%>

Thanks Martin. That was very informative, especially the suggestion to use a new window with some unimportant message like &quot;Please Wait&quot;.

Good Thinking..
