VBScript - Discussion - Response.redirect

Hi,

I am implementing the following condition

<% If cnt>100 then
Response.write "too many records!!. Go back & try again."
Response.redirect "back.asp"
else
.....some coding...... %>
<form action="next.asp" method=post>
<input type=submit value=submit>
<% End if %>

However the browser is redirecting itself to the previous page,without showing the message.

Alternatively,I have also tried to put a form statement & submit button in IF for going back,but it is submitting next.asp in both conditions.

Pls help.

How can I do this
Thanks

Hi,

You have a couple of options, you could either offer the user a link that they can click instead of just redirecting them to back.asp:

Code:

<% If cnt>100 then
	Response.write("Too many records&nbsp;<a href=""back.asp"">Click Here to Try Again</a>")
else
.....some coding...... %>
<form action="next.asp" method=post>
<input type=submit value=submit>
<% End if %>

Or you could use javascript to display the message as an alert:

Code:

<% If cnt>100 then
	Response.write("<script>alert('too many records!!. Go back & try again.');</script>")
	Response.redirect "back.asp"
else
.....some coding...... %>
<form action="next.asp" method=post>
<input type=submit value=submit>
<% End if %>

I want to display a button for back & when the user click that he should be directed to the previous page. Cannot figure out the coding for that

You just need to adapt my first example to use a button instead of a link:

Code:

	Response.Write("<form name=""dummyForm"" action=""back.asp"" method=""post"">")
	Response.write("Too many records&nbsp;<input type=""submit"" name=""btnSubmit"" value=""Try Again""")
	Response.Write("</form>")

Many Thanks. Easy solution.

You're welcome, glad it helped!!

Without meaning to sound rude, the more information you provide in your original question, the more chance we have of providing a solution.
