How to get the result returned by a form?
Hello all,
here is a sample html: <HTML> <HEAD><TITLE>Request.htm</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY> <H2>Sample</H2> <P> Please provide the following information, then click Submit: <FORM METHOD="GET" ACTION="answer.asp"> <P> P string: <INPUT NAME="p" SIZE="48" Value="1"> <P> <P><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit"><INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset"> </FORM> </BODY> </HTML> the problem is that the answer.asp is in another server and I want to parse the results its returns (txt format), put in a table, and then send to the client. any good ideas? (html, asp, javascript, or php as long as it can solve this problem) thanks guys in advance

As long as the method you are using is "GET" then all the values from the form will be in the querystring, in which case it doesn't matter that answers.asp is on another server. But why are you asking what technology to use if the file is called answer.asp? ASP is a good solution for this problem and will work just fun. On the answers.asp page, you can use the request.querysting() method to retrieve the form data. Then do whatever processing you need to do.

Thanks imbrokn, the problem is that I cann't modify the answer.asp. It belongs to another provider, but I must use the results it returns for furture usage.

So you are trying to pass information to a page on another server and then retrieve that information? I can't think of any way to do that with server side code.

What defjamninja said.
If you don't have access to answer.asp, you cannot process returning data. If you can retrieve some results on your screen when you submit your form to answer.asp, the only way I can think of is copy the info on the page and make a text file manually

Wouldn't it be a BIG security risk if you could just read data submitted to other peoples forms???
If on the other hand you want to save data that you send to the form, you should do it before you send it to answer.asp. ie. make your own local copy of Request.html have the form on it have an action="your.asp" somewhere you can make asp work. Then make your.asp have a form on it pre filled eg. Code:
<%
' do you pre processing of request("p") here
%>
<form name="myform" action="answer.asp" method="GET">
<input type="hidden" name="p" value="<% Request("p")%>">
</form>
and then place a submit in the html body onload event handler. Code:
<body onload="document.forms.myform.submit();">
