Hello,
I have 3 pages, search, search results and detail. The search page has a standard form with a couple of parameters that I pass to the results page to filter the resultset.

On the search results page is a link to go to the detail page (go to detail page server behaviour)
I require a particular parameter that is set
on the search form to be passed all the way through to the detail page as I'm using it as a filtering criteria on the resultset for the detail page.
I have tried using Request.Querystring on the detail page but because there is no 'form' submission on the search results page the parameter does not get passed ?

Is there a way to get the parameter passed
from the Search page through the Results page and then to the Detail page ?

Any pointers would be appreciated..

 
Hi there,

Either assign the value to a session variable(uses valuable server processing) or just add a form to your search results page with a hidden field with the value of the variable you want passed.

I dont want to go to Chelsea!!!
 
thanks Cheech for the quick response. I'll give it a shot...
