Redirect user after updation

[vikramonline]

I use Recordset paging ( 10 records page) to display records from the Access database.User has the option to click any record and update it.
Everything works fine.What I want is that after updation a loading message like "Record Updated" should get displayed and then the user should be automatically redirected to the page,from where he had clicked the record,with updated data.

If you save the search values in session or cookie values (as well as the page number) then you could take them back to the correct page pretty easily. Basically have a page that times out and redirects to the results page, then either check the sesion/cookie in the results page or have the redirect page load from the session/cookie and add it to the querystring of the results page. Yopu can do the redirect with either a javascript SetTimeout or a Meta tag.

Tarwn, there is a lot of confusion in my mind ,can u please explain a bit.

An example of tarwn's suggestion:

<script language="javascript">

function linkClick(url) {
    var currentLocation = window.location; //set current location
    document.cookie="location="+ currentLocation; //write location to cookie
    window.location=url;
}
</script>

<!-- Edit button link -->
<a href="#" onclick="linkClick('mypage.htm')">Click here</a>

Then in your asp page you provide a back button. Set the link for the URL based on the cookie.

<%
previousLocation = request.cookies("location")
%>

<!-- button link -->
<a href="<%=previousLocation%>">Go back</a>

or if you have a form handler for your changes just add

<%
url = request.cookies("location")
response.redirect (url)
%>

Hope it helps

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!
