Instead of hidden form elements you could use page level variables (like Global Variables in a way ... i guess).
For example:
<script language="JavaScript">
var variable1;
var variable2;
</script>
This way you can simple access these variables with some script in the page like:
function setVars() {
variable1 = "some";
variable2 = "thing";
}
Main problem with this is that you will most likely have to pass this information through the URL:

You would have to build this in your client side script ... could get a bit more messy than you want ... but, it's another option.

It seems like that.... But I am happy that I have 'another' option to use it. Its good to use this method, when I really need it.
Right now, I managed to get the code working with ASP itself (again messed around with the code )

Is web technology suitable to do accounting ? I see a lot of
accounting applications written in VC,VB but I rarely see applications built on web technology.
I am working for a bank.
And I think it is much easier to build an online banking system
using web technology than other technology.
Thank you for your Interest.

Yep, you can build on line accounting apps. There are a couple of companies doing this now that are fairly successful. Take a look at
http://www.intacct.com
Oracle has a suite online as well as intuit.
Hope this helps

Yes, it is very suitable. For reasons you have probably already discovered. Users already know how to use the internet, so training is at a minimum. Also, they can access the application from anywhere, not just their machine. I am working for a financial services firm whose entire application is served via the web. But this is still probably not as interesting as what your bank do online.

My bank just added something new. Where formerly it just displayed the check numbers that had cleared, as of last week there is an icon on each line that displays an image of the actual check! No more waiting for 10 days (and paying $3) to get a paper copy... We've come a long way from the 300 baud, text-based "online banking" of the early '80s!
As to accounting, I believe that Quickbooks sells an online accounting service, including payroll services, that users can subscribe to. That's an idea that makes me nervous, sending all my financial info over the web and entrusting strangers to keep it private. But the technology is certainly capable, and quite appropriate for accounting applications.

Hi!
Does anyone have a very simple web service client,
written in Java Script or VBScript?
Until now, I've only found examples with huuuuge .htc files.
Thank you!

I have a web page that writes a text box to the screen depending on centetain paramters.
if(ok)
printf("<input type="text" name="textbox">\n");
else
printf("Something else");
I then wish to do something IF "textbox" is displayed. I do not then know the state of "ok" so I wish to interrogate textbox to see if it exists.
I there any way to do this in JavaScript?
TIA

i have a lot of headings in my page and i would like to have hyperlinks at the top of the page, with the ability to go directly to each heading via these. How is this possible? i apologise, i am new to html! Thank you!

have a look at this[^] page for an example.
They use a combination of href="thispage.html#gohere" and <a name="gohere"> tags.

Hi, my company has just recently jumped onto the .Net bandwagon for our web application development. For a start we are evaluating how to approach some of the foundation modules that are to be shared across all apps, eg. common error handling, handling of user accounts, mail sending etc.
As such, would like get some advice from experts out here regarding the user authentication module. We are contemplating between using the Windows 2000 active directory as the base or developing it from scratch ie. create user, roles, etc tables in the SQL database and code the functions ourselves.
Just wondering which method is better both in terms of flexibility and scalability in the long run.
Any advice would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

Problem integrating Flash-ASP:
1. Flash action script on "Login" button:
on (release) {
loadVariables ( "Login.asp", 0, "POST" );
gotoAndPlay ("LoginStatus");
}
2. action script for Label "LoginStatus"
if (bLoginStatus == 1)
{
gotoAndPlay ("LoginSuccess");
}
else {
gotoAndPlay ("LoginFailed");
}
3. Login.asp - It's just a test script, so, no password matching yet.
I just want to see the effect of changing "bLoginStatus" to 1 or 0 and that it works as intended.
<% response.write "bLoginStatus=1" %>
Yes, this is it. A very simple ASP script isnt it?
4. Observation:
The flash movie always go to the "LoginFailed" frame for some reason...
It does NOT matter if "bLoginStatus=1" in Login.asp
How can you make sure that your variables has been loaded successfully? I tried to make sure there enough time to load variable by adding a while-loop to waste time:
var i
i=0
while(i<100000)
{
i=i+1
}
if (bLoginStatus == 1)
{
gotoAndPlay ("LoginSuccess");
}
else {
gotoAndPlay ("LoginFailed");
}

I haven't done this for a while. So I hope my annswer isn't too historic.
///Assign bLoginStatus TWO frames before eg.
bLoginStatus =2;
if (bLoginStatus == 1)
{
gotoAndPlay ("LoginSuccess");
}
if(bLoginStatus == 0 {
gotoAndPlay ("LoginFailed");
}
/// If the default still exists then just play the last frame
prevframe()

Thanks for the feedback.
Question 1: "Assign bLoginStatus TWO frames before"
Why exactly TWO?
Question 2: No, for some reason, it did not work.
The script still seems to execute independent of what's written in the ASP file.
It's a shame that a C++ programmer get stuck on a simple thing like this... shame.

I guess you could make it one frame before.
it just means you are assigning the bLoginStatus variable repeatedly.

Disgusting !!
I'll send you my email and if you have a dummy FLA to test send it over. Although I only have Flash5. I'm quite sure its something real simple.
One of thos things you could spend stacks of time wasted on.

Is this possible to inform the site not to be 'cached' in the users' PC. I am trying to calculate the site's hit rate... The cache didnt give me the exact hit rate for some reasons (my web server maintenance people told me that!!).... Please help

Using:
<%Response.Expires = -1 %>
in an asp page will prevent the page from being cached. If you're not using asp, you can expire the page deliberately by using something like:
where the time/date is any arbitrary value prior to the time of the page request. Expired pages are not cached.
I've gone to find myself. If I should get back before I return, please keep me here.

Since the Response.Expire value is part of the http header for the page I would expect that this would have to be set before anything is sent to the client. I haven't used it, just looked it up for you, but I'd try it very early in the script. I think I saw in a later post that your are using Javascript, so the other form might be a cleaner solution - just include it as part of the string(s) you output for the HEAD element.
I've gone to find myself. If I should get back before I return, please keep me here.

Is it not working, or is it just a pain in the arse to repeat in every page? If the latter, stick it in an included page.

NO, it is working... what I meant was, I had just implemented as ur suggestion. And I have made them in the header include... no probs!!
