forwarding variables

Ok, here's what I want to do with 3 pages: 1st page: sets variables, passes them on to page 2 through submit button. @nd page: processes variables, automatically passes them to page 3 when they are processed.

Please note that I have absolutely no control over page 3. I need everything to be processed in page 2 because I can't make page 3 do it for me. Any ideas on how to automatically send the processed variables to page 3? Is there any way to "call" page 3 like in vbscript or batch?

1st and 2nd pages are asp pages, 3rd is a perl. I have no control over the programming of the third, it's off my site.

 

probably be best to response.redirect to the perl page and hope the perl page is pulling out querystrings for that data.

 

Needs to be post variables... I'm pretty sure they can go between asp and perl pages.

 

maybe a bit of JS

document.NameOfForm.submit();

 

hmmm... know any perl Kodo?

 

no. and I will never make any attempt to.

 

I'd agree with kodo. Make a javascript to set some hidden fields to the variables, and then submit the form. Obviously you set the variables in JS with ASP (i.e. var someJSvar = <%=somevar%>; ) that way you can make the form post rather than get.

 

don't need to send the vars to a java script.. just make a regular form..assign the form fields the associated values and use the javascript I posted to automatically submit the form after the page loads.
