ASP Forms

[thoulden]

I currently have a form created in html format (created in FrontPage), which sends the results to an email address. The form has several text boxes, drop-down boxes and text area boxes. In addition to the current functionality, I need the form to pass/retain information entered by the user to allow additional forms to be completed. For example, the user enters the client name, matter name, number and date into the form and submits it. The user may have additional items to submit for the same client name and matter name, so after the form is submitted, I want that information to display in the appropriate fields and the user can complete the remaining fields. How can I do this using ASP?

if, instead of using response.redirect, you use server.transfer, it retains post variables, and you can then put them into fields (hidden or otherwise) to be posted to another page.

Personally, I would use session variables or cookies. If the site requires a login, then simply store the details against the users record.

ASP.NET has this functionalty builtin, its called viewstate.
