I am REAL new to ASP, and I'm trying to figure out how to do something. I am not a programmer, so I need very explicit help.

I have a web page, generated by the following link in an HTML page:

<A HREF="http://server/trData?sql=EXECUTE+up_select_xml_projects+'0'+&xsl =Projects.xsl&ContentType=Text/HTML&Root=Project" Class="BlueText">Projects</A>

The result is an XML page. The XML page includes an Archive button, which activates the following:

<xsl:when test="@Archive_ID='0'">
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/testresults/archive.asp"
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="ProjID" VALUE="{@Project_ID}"/>
<INPUT TYPE="image" SRC="/testresults/archive.gif" VALUE="Move to Archive"/>

The archive.asp file correctly sends a command to the SQL server, but I'm left at a blank page in the browser. If I hit the Back button, I return to the original list, but it still shows the "Archived" project, and I have to refresh the browser.

I think I need to put something in the ASP file that will automatically reload the page generated by the original anchor above.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Ken

Ken,

To redirect from one page to another in ASP use:

Response.Redirect("thePageName.asp")

If you put after your page has done its processing and point it back to were you came from it should hold any new data.
Is that what you were asking?

Ken,

If you want to refresh your main page it is recommended to post form action to the page itself, not to the archive.asp page. You can move the archive logic from archive.asp page to the top of your main page. In that way, the archive action will be performed before the main page displaying, and the data in the list will be recent.

HTH.
