Hello all,
I have an asp report that needs to be grouped by each department and get
totals at the end of each department. Example:
Department A Amount Given = $1,000.00
Coffee $500.00
Tea $200.00
Total $700.00
Remaining Balance $300.00
Department B Amount Given = $2,000.00
Envelopes $400.00
Pens $200.00
Total $600.00
Remaining Balance $1,400.00
Secondly, I have a logon form that requests userID to open this report with
the current user's information. The problem is whenever I go back to type
in an ID a drop down list pops up with all the previously typed IDs which
makes it insecure because anybody can come in and select from the dropdown
list to look at someone else report. How do I stop this, I have set the
page to expire in 1 minute but that doesn't help.
Thanks!!

This is a feature of Internet Explorer that cannot be turned off at the web
server level. One thing you could do, however, is dynamically generate the
name of the id box and pass the name of the id box in a hidden field to the
page that processes the request. e.g.:
***** In LOGON form *****
<FORM ACTION="processingpage.asp" METHOD="post">
<%
Dim UIDField
UIDField = SomeFunctionToGenerateRandomName()
%>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="UIDField" VALUE="<% =UIDField %>">
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="<% =UIDField %>">
...
</FORM>
***** In PROCESSINGPAGE *****
<%
Dim UIDFieldName
Dim UID
UIDFieldName = Request("UIDField")
UID = Request(UIDFieldName)
%>

Three options I can think of:
- For IE 5 and above : add the attribute "autocomplete=off" to the INPUT
field.
- Turn the autocomplete feature in the browser off.
- Use a password field instead of a text field. From what you say the
information is secret.
hope this helps,
Anil
