[Fernando Lopes]

Hi there.
There's a way to transfer data between pages but:
- Not using Session
- Not use Querystring

Tks.

There's a way to transfer data between pages but:

- Not use Querystring

You could write/read to a database and/or text file.

You could use cookies (provided everyone had cookies enabled).

Here's a nice, simple way to pass values from one page to another:
(VB.NET code)

'Add data to the context object before transferring
Context.Items("myParameter") = x
Server.Transfer("WebForm2.aspx")

Then, in WebForm2.aspx:

'Grab data from the context property
Dim x as Integer = CType(Context.Items("myParameter"),Integer)

Of course there are a number of ways to pass values from one page to
another, such as using the querystring, cookies, session,
context, saving to a temporary table in the database between each page, etc.
You'll have to decide which technique is best for your application.
Here are several good articles on the subject to help you decide.

Yup, HTTP Context is a great feature : ) It's one of those features that is
a bit undervalued IMHO.

You could put it in the Cache with an expiry, you would have to put the
key (A Guid maybe) in the querystring but I doubt that would be a
security issue or anything.
