There first is there is a is a 3 letter term for how thing are transferred via a form. CQI, SEQ or something like that sorry that the question the question is so vague.
The second half is that when I'm establishing a a form action:
If I fully understand your question, I believe you would add a link to submitform.aspx for the user to click to go where you want/need them to.
Or, you could automatically redirect them after the form has been submitted with javascript. I'm not that great with js btw so you'll have to bear with me, but I think it goes something like this:
Between <head> tags:
<script language="JavaScript">
var time = null
function move() {
window.location = 'http://where-you-want-them-to-go'
}
</script>
Thx u for the quick responce adderlite. I think I need to keep the
Code:
action="/submitform.aspx"
in there becasue thats the submit program that we are using to pass along form information.
Sidenote: that program is involed in forum submission that program has a 3 letter name that I can't remember at all so if you know that plz feel free to share.
I will give the JS a try in the head. stand by for results
Yep I've there is a sever side page that the user is bounced to when they press the submit button. Its the
HTML Code:
action="/submitform.aspx"
So I'm inside the submitform.aspx file ant this code looks like its in charge of where the user is sent once they the CGI (<=Found out the name, that was driving me nutz)
is sent.
HTML Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function goBack() {
history.go(-2);
}
function waitSeconds() {
// wait time is in milliseconds, currently set for 3 seconds
setTimeout("goBack()", 3000);
}
</script></head><body onload="waitSeconds()">
