Sorry, the last post pulled my code section out! Here it is again.

Passing parameters is easy and works basically the same as it does in ASP. Depending on whether you use a POST or GET method from the parent, inside the AFP script of the child page (the one recieving some parameter), you can issue something like:

lcCompany = FOX.GETFORMVAR("Company")

In this case, lcCompany would be a variable which now holds the value of the variable Company passed to the page via a Form POST call.

HTH, but if you are unfamiliar with form POST and GET, let me know and I'll provide more details.

>>My server has been running AFP for several months now. AFP is a great product and very stable. I haven't tried WWC so I can't compare the 2 other than to say I have always heard good things about WWC. I have taken a look at the Visual Webbuilder product and it looks like a great tool to use with WWC, something that is definitely lacking in AFP.

>>AFP's strengths are its power and simplicity. I was productive in less than 10 minutes of first trying it. Its drawbacks are I feel like I've stepped backwards to the 2.x days in the way you manage a project. You can use FP and Interdev, no question about it, but it is a scripting engine. But for a large scale web based project (complexity of the app not the size or amount of the data), managing could be difficult.
