I am having trouble with a form. I have admin pages where a user can 
update a web page via a form. Everything works fine except that i want the 
user to be able to preview the final page. The form, of course, posts back 
so I put a Redirect() to the preview page in the btn_click. 

The preview page has a request.form but it isn't getting anything. What is 
the proper way to do this with aspx pages.

Also I have this code to put the form field into a variable:

  Dim strCaseNo As String
  strCaseNo = Request.Form("txtCaseNo")

but I get a compilation error "Declaration expected" on the second line.

What am I doing wrong...besides waking up this morning?

Request.form does not work in asp.net. You need to use session variables
and redirect the page to get the values posted in a different form.

Hi Jeby,
Can you send me a code sample with request.form, which demonstrates this 
functionality in ASP.NET?
There were a couple of e-mails in this list, but I am unable to figure out 
how to do it.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Naveen.

I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around this. In order to pass 
the value of the text box (in this case txtCaseNo.text) I have to create a 
session variable? I that done on the form page?  

I'm not exactly sure how to accomplish this. Do you have an example or can 
you point me to a resource?

Naveen,

You can try this.
In the First Page You have some fields that has to be captured in the
second page..

Do as we used to do in ASP, in the first page. Since we dont have
form.submit and form.action, submit to the same page (which is
automatic, you neednt write code for this!!!) and redirect the page to
the second one. (using Response.redirect("url") which is again same as
ASP).But before you could do this use session variables and assign the
values of the fields to them (you need to capture it in the second
page!) .

Thats it , you are done.
 try this sample code:


firstpage
session("EmpName") =3D txtEmp.text
session("EmpID") =3D txtID.text
response.redirect ("secondpage.aspx")

second page
response.write (session("EmpName"))

Hope you are clear

Regards,
Jeby

Hi Jeby,
It worked great for me!
I also noticed that, when we use the session variables like
session("var")= textbox1.text , we can't use this statement to insert into 
SQL table.
So I am assigning the variables to form fields again and then using insert 
statement.
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Naveen.

That is clear and thank you. I found out (through much searching) that 
there are several ways to do this. 

You can do it using Session (as you showed); by creating a class and using 
the HttpServerUtility.Transfer Methos. to pass the values (I ended up 
employing this method); and there is an article from MS that I haven't had 
time to read yet: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-
US;q303436

Hope this helps anyone who ends up doing a search for this type of 
information.

This article talks about C#, can you please send that code for VB of using
this HTTPServerUtility.

Thanks in advance
