Passing Value to another page & then again to another page
Hi,
I want to pass a value from one page to another(say from page1 to page2) & the same value again to another page(say page3).
What is the best way to do this in vb.net. Query string, Session Variables or any other method?
Thanx

Hi Anup ,
It all depends on your needs, what the object is and so on.
If it's a scalar value (int, string, etc) then the Query String makes perfect sense. If it's a large or complex object, or it needs to be secured, Session state or a database make more sense.
In other words, it's impossible to say what's the best solutuion if you don't tell us what it is you need to pass around.
Cheers,
Imar

Thanks for the breakdown, Imar. I love that the answer comes with an explanation.

Actually I am sending Image name as a value to the next page & same value to another page.
(On my first page, I am displaying List of Images & when the user clicks on one image, the same image opens on the second page - This is what i am doing.)

In that case, I'd definitely pass the image name as a string parameter in the url. Just make sure your image names are unique (you could pass the image id, but that results in nasty urls (bad security, bad usability, bad SEO))
