Title:
Getting a QueryString value to persist
I'm working to modify records in a SQL server based product hosted on IIS 5. The code I'm working on was written by team of programmers that I am not able to contact.
The record ID for the base data is a 15 character string that can contain virtually any character, including some that are meaningful to ASP. Therefore, it's being passed to me in the querystring as 15 ASCII codes, converted to characters and seperated by underscores.
On the first run into the page I can see this string, print it out, convert it to the necessary 15 character recid. After hitting the submit button and going back into the form, it doesn't appear to be available. How do I get this value to persist? I'm unable (and unwilling) to use the session object.
I'm a relative novice at this stuff, and these brick marks on my forehead are starting to bleed. Any suggestions?
Many TIA,
Tom
