access_asp thread: delete posted variables on page load


Message #1 by jake williamson <jake.williamson@2...> on Tue, 18 Feb 2003 12:50:24 +0000

hmmm,

i reckon this is pretty easy - a weeks holiday has left my head fuzzy...

page 1 has a form that posts to page two. if the result is correct on page
two it redirects you off to a 'success!' page. if the result is incorrect,
i'd like to stay on the page and show a 'have another go' form.

so what i need to do is delete the posted variables, otherwise the script
just loops and loops (i.e. if the result is incorrect, it just keeps
re-loading the page and errors itself again.)

is there a way to kill the posted variables?

thanks out there,

cheers,

jake

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Don't "kill" the posted variables. Assign the values to your own "internal"
variables, and work with those.

In any case, posting to the same page will probably make your life easier:
