asp_web_howto thread: Dynamic Child window based on entry in Parent Window


Message #1 by "Christopher Cote" <cotec@s...> on Mon, 18 Mar 2002 19:20:00
Here's my problem...
I have a dynamic form that is called from a parent page.  This form will 
display a specific number of text boxes depending on numbers entered into 
a couple of text boxes on the parent page.  How do I, in ASP, read in the 
values in the text boxes in order to set up the child page?  The button 
the user clicks is not a submit button, so I know the data isn't posted 
anywhere yet.

Assuming you are using javascript to pop the new window, you can pass url
parameters from the parent window grabing the values that are in the text
box currently. ie call a function from the button click and add lines that
assign the values of the text boxes to variables
var num1 = document.forms[0].textvalue1.value;
something to that sort.  then just add them as query string variables to the
new window.

I have a directory with links to pictures.  I use FSO and the following
to open windows for display.  Not sure if it helps..but here it is..
<SCRIPT ID=3DclientEventHandlersJS LANGUAGE=3Djavascript>
<!--
function eventName_onchange() {
var eventurl =3D "events/";
winStats=3D'toolbar=3Dno,location=3Dno,directories=3Dno,menubar=3Dno,';
winStats+=3D'scrollbars=3Dno,width=3D300,height=3D500,resizable';
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft")>=3D0) {
    winStats+=3D',left=3D300,top=3D25';
  }else{
    winStats+=3D',screenX=3D300,screenY=3D25';
  } 

if (document.eventform.eventName.selectedIndex > 0){
 self.moveTo(1,1);
 eventurl =3D eventurl + document.eventform.eventName.value;
  window.open(eventurl,"Events",winStats);
 return false;
     }
return false;    
}
function MouseHandlerOver( bPtr ) {
   bPtr.style.cursor =3D "hand";
}
function MouseHandlerOut( bPtr ) {
   bPtr.style.cursor =3D "default";
}
