Elloitt,
In the form of your second page, create hidden fields. When the page is
loading, set these fields values to the data from the previous page.
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" Name "PreviousFieldOne" Value
<%=Request.Form("PreviousFieldOne")%>>
The problem with this is that if the user leaves on the second page you
don't get any of the information.
If you are using a database:
You might want to consider updating your database after the first page is
visited, and then use the hidden field to pass a unique ID number. After the
second page is submitted, you can check for the ID number, and update
accordingly.

give the other window a name when you open it - then you will be able to
refer to it and access any objects such as input fields.
open your new window with the open method:
window.open (sURL, "newwin")
e.g. to access a field called "inputfield1" in a window called "newwin"
var s = window.top.newwin.document.all.inputfield1.value

The page is Frame.htm (sorry about the mispelling) so they're actually on
the two pages at the same time...
I want them to click a button on the second page and get the data from
both...
Is there a way?
