asp_web_howto thread: How can I call an external routine with form data without displaying an input screen?


Message #1 by "Michael Whitmill" <mwhitmill@e...> on Mon, 1 Jul 2002 13:47:36
I would like to exit from one routine to another (as in response.redirect)
but I would like to pass variables that are not shown in the browser 
address line.  I was hoping to be able to somehow build a form with all 
hidden variables that is never displayed and which can be sent to the 
external routine without requiring user interaction (i.e. no buttons to 
click).

Does anyone have a suggestion?
--Thanks, Mike

Try appending the variables and values in the response.redirect.  
Ex: response.redirect "Somepage.asp?subject=" & variable & "&title=" & title

He didn't want the var's in the url...

Consider using server.execute, or, forming your logic as functions instead
of pages which can be called using parameters.

I don't see why you need a client hit to process this stuff.
