when the page is submitted, the page has all the form (Belements of the page.

(B

say, if you have a check box (eg, chkBox1), a drop-down box (B(eg, cmbList) and a submit button (cmdSubmit)

(B

 

(B

Once u click the submit button, if you have checked the (Bcheck box and if you response.write request.form, it wld show u the below (Binfo:

(B

 

(B

chkBox1=ON,cmbList=some_list_item,cmdSubmit=Press (Bme

(B

 

(B

so, Len(request.form("cmdSubmit")) = 8 --> Press me, (Bwhich indicates that you have pressed the submit button.

(B

Clear?

Sorry, your query seems to be (B unclear.

(B

PLs (B check whether the below criteria is what u try to achieve.

(B

 

(B

You (B have a list box where you fill the contents from the db.

(B

Once (B filled, you want the user to select a specific item and use that while (B submitting the form, right?

(B

 

(B

dim (B strListVal

(B

if (B len(request.form("submitbutton"))>0 then 

(B

    strListVal = (B request.form("listBox")

(B

end (B if

(B

 

(B

this (B must give the selected item from that list.

(B

 

(B

If u (B still have problems, i suggest googling some examples regarding the list (B control.

Dear all,

(B

 

(B

I have designed a menu/list box at a ASP web page. It can retrive (B data from database and show them out however I don't know how to write (B the code that what the value is the user selected. It  is because (B the code(for example) : "value=request.form("select_1") is not work (B at this situation. So does anyone can tell me the way or the logic to (B get the value that is selected from a menu/list box ?
