Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could help me out on trying to go about creating 

a multiple page form which, at the end should display all the info they've 

entered and then they press the submit button and the results should be 

sent via email to me. I'm guessing each page will pass on a querystring 

containing all the info they've entered, and on the submit page, the 

CDONTS.Newmail will be called.



Thanks,

Andrew

Hello,



A idea is to store all your informations in a session variable.

At the end, on your submit page, you can retreive everything you want.



Session("your_info1")=Request.Form("info1_from_form")



Stef.

Hmm, could do, but not the most scaleable solution. Session variables are a

really neat idea which happen to also be In League With The Daleks: try not

to use them, if possible.



Andrew, how much data are you thinking of accumulating in total? You could

pass it around in the header using the POST method, and reading it using 

the Form collection. There are limits to the physical length of what can be

posted between forms, but I think it's something like 40 characters, or

something - much more than a GEt would allow you. My colleague Ian Nutt

knows, but he's not here, so I can ask him.

About 10 pages with about 10 fields on each... that's a worse case 

scenario, but I want to code it in case in gets bigger. Therefore I suppose 

the Form collection should be used... how do i get the program to remember 

the stuff on page 1 when i get to page 10?

Thanks,

Hi,



Avoid session variables as far as possible as these variables may not work

correctly if cookies are disabled

Follow the following link for "pros & cons of session variables"

http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/webtech/092098-2.shtml



Use hidden variables which are carried over the forms like this.



Below the line to be pasted in 2nd form

<input type="hidden" name="username" value="<%=Request.Form("username")%>">



where username is text field of 1st form





Best Regards

Rahul



p.s.

There is a limit of 2000 characters when you pass the result using ? and

retrieve using querystring object.

Use session variables so that u can access the value of the variable in page

10 from page 1. Or else use cookies if u r planning to conserve the

resources of u'r server.
