Form Submission on opening the page

[jedel]

Hi All,
AS the title suggests, I have an asp form that retrieves login details for users who forget there password etc. they can receive there details by entering their email into a form which in turn pulls up the page with there details.

For scurity reasons however, I would like to have this page not show any detail, have all of the data in hidden fields and have it automatically send the data to the persons email address.

Currently the page displays and the user needs to click on the submit button to send himself the email. I would like this to happen when the page opens.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

Dean

You should never return security data in hidden fields. (They're not really all that hidden). Simply have your ASP form's action be an ASP page that that sends them an email then redirects them to another page stating 'an email has been sent'. (Or refresh the original page with that information.)

You probably should ask in the ASP forum if you have any further questions.

Greg,
Thanks for the reply, I was unaware of this. Kinda new at the whole login thing. Could you possibly expand a little on your post? ie I'm not sure what to place in the form's Action.

What you're saying is exactly what I I want to do. I just don't know how? Could you possibly expand your comment a some?

Cheers

I'm not an ASP expert. Try: forum333 to find specific answers.
