passing variable from page to page 1

[clientuser]

how do you pass a string variable from one .asp page to another?

any examples would be greatly appreciated

You can do this either with the QueryString Collection or the Form collection

QueryString Method

<A HREF="page2.asp?var1=fred&var2=wilma">Page 2</A>

and page2.asp would look like this...

<%
Dim variable1, variable2

variable1 = Request.QueryString("var1")
variable2 = Request.QueryString("var2")
%>

Form Method

<FORM ACTION="page2.asp" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="var1" VALUE="some text here"></INPUT>
<INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE="Click to go to Page 2"></INPUT>
</FORM>

and Page2.asp would look like...

<%
Dim variable1

variable1 = Request.Form("var1")
%>
