Processing forms using ASP
You can process HTML forms using these two powerful ASP
objects, Response and Request.
Response outputs the value to a page and
Request retrieves values from an object.
Take a look at the following example:
<form name="userForm" method="post" action="userForm.asp">
Enter a user name: <input type="text" name="userName" size="20">
Enter a password: <input type="password" name="password" size="20">
<inpute type="submit" name="submit" value="Send">
</form>
| Result
|
We just created HTML form and tell the browser to
process the form using the file "userForm.asp".
The following is userForm.asp file that writes the values
from the form.
<html>
<head>
<title>Process form Info</title>
</head>
<body>
You have typed the user name <%=Request.Form("userName")%>
and the password <%=Request.Form("password")%>.
</body>
</html>
|
Type something in the text boxes and hit submit button to see the result
of this example. What you will see is the result of this code.
The form will pass the information to userForm.asp file, which then will use
the power of Request to write this information.

Form Processing Example 2
You can store value retrieved from form into variables in order to use
these value whatever way you want. Take a look at this example which is
little bit more complex then previous one.
