I am an ASP novice, and need some help.
Here is my code for the first cell in my table on the page
called "Currmealplan":
<div id="Layer6" style="position:absolute; width:499px; height:330px;
z-index:13; left: 179px; top: 220px;">
<table width="100%" height="311" border="0" cellpadding="3"
cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td width="34%"><a href="Inext.asp"><%=
(rs_activemealplan.Fields.Item("SatB").Value)%></a></td>
When a user comes to this page, this table is populated with records
from a database table (as you can see <%=
(rs_activemealplan.Fields.Item("SatB").Value)%>). This database
table is called "mealplan" and looks like this:
___________________________________________________
Username | BeginDate | EndDate | SatB | SatS | etc.|
----------------------------------------------------
value |date value |date valu|text |text | etc.|
----------------------------------------------------
etc.
So when a User (value "username") comes to this page, the table
mentioned above (via the code) is populated with values for SatB,
SatS, etc, from the database table "mealplan. If there is no data in
the database table then the text "Click Here to Add" will show up and
be linked to Inext.asp.
Here's what I want to do. I want the user to come to this page and
click on the text "Click Here to Add." When they do so, I want the
asp code to insert the value of the stored cookie, named "meal" (at
this point the cookie is stored) into the table "mealplan" (the same
table above) where the username is equal to the session
variable "username" and where the beginning date is equal to the
stored cookie "beginning date." And I want it to add the value of
the stored cookie named "meal" into the SatB field/column of
the "mealplan" database.
I now realize that the program does not have a way to identify that
that particular cell on the webpage should have a value of SatB, so
that it may refer to this value so it knows which field/column to
enter the value of the cookie "meal" into. Do I need to add a button
instead of just a link, and give the button a value of SatB? Do I
need to add a hidden field, instead of a button with a value of
SatB?
After the asp code inserts the value of the stored cookie "meal" into
the apporpriate field in the database table "mealplan." I want it to
automatically link to the page "Inext.asp". This page call the same
recordsets so that the user can see that the value of the stored
cookie "meal" was entered into the appropriat place in the database
table.
I hope this clears up all misunderstandings. Again, thanks so much
for all of your help.
