I have built a site that uses a if else statement to show one half of the page at a time. The navigation buttons work fine on EI but
not on Netscape.
I have no idea why.
Here is the code, there is no VBScript in it there is JavaScript and ASP.
JavaScript in this color
ASP in this color what ever the heck this color is
Buttons in question in this color
Button that does work WHICH is before the if in this color
Comments in this color
=====================Start code ==================================
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<Script>
function Back()
{
javascript:history.back();
}
</script>
<html>
<head>
<title>Trial ADO</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="#00ffff">
<HR>
<%
If Request.Form ("forIf") = "" Then
Response.Write"<B>Phone Numbers for magrath from 1997</b><HR>"
%>
<FORM method="post" action="TADO1.asp" id="TADO1" name="TADO1">
<input type="Hidden" name="forIf" value="Warren S. Wyght" title="IfTrue" id="IfTrue"></input><INPUT type=submit
value="Get List of Numbers!" id=SubmitButton name=submit1>
<FORM method="post" action="TADO1.asp" id="TADO1" name="TADO1"></Form> </Form>
<%
Else
%>
<!-- TWO BUTTONS HERE NEITHER WORK WHY??-->
<INPUT type=submit value="Get List of Numbers!" id=SubmitButton name=submit1>
<input type = "button" name="GoBack" value="Back One Page" tabindex="0" title="BtnGoBack" id="GoBackBnt" onClick="Back()">
<h1>test</h1><!--JUST TO SEE IF I GET HERE OR NOT-->
<!--Table and information from Database to go in this section-->
<%End If %>
<HR>
</body>
</html>
=====================End code ==================================
Thanks for any advice you can give me. I do have beginning ASP Databases, but I can not find a answer for this. By the way this is
so I can have my users build a SQL for the RS that will show on second half of page. My Teach yourself Active Server Pages 3.0 in 21
Days has
not shown up in my mail box yet.

I think the answer is right in front of you:
Under the <%else%> condition, you are not writing a <form> tag to the page.
Netscape will not (and shoudn't) submit a form using a submit button if
they're not enclosed by a <form></form> tags.
As well, under the <%if...then%> condition, you have a redundant </form>
tag, which you should probably remove.
Cheers
Ken

I think that buttons outside of a form do not work in NetScape (ugh!)

Ken, et al
Netscape will not show buttons or form elements unless you encase the all
the elements within the <form></form> tags. IE has the "ability" to
autogenerate form tags for itself on the fly. This means that if you write some
HTML with no <form></form> tags on the page but you put an <insert type=text . .
. > IE will show that element while Netscape will not.

As you all see Netscape causes problem for all of us. I say we ban the
sucker. In sweden a company called IDG made a research and came to a
conclusion that Netscape only has 11% of the people using it and Internet
Explorer has 88% of the people and 1% to all the other browsers.. Netscape
causes so many problems that makes me and probably you to think it's
frustrating and boring to make homepages.

While I have my own views about Netscape vs IE, I feel we're going a bit
off topic with this thread. This is the "ASP Databases" list from
boring-old Wrox Press - not slashdot.com :-) ! I'm also worried that it
might get libellous. can we kill it please?
