Page Error (Can't be Found)

[SyrOrange]

I am trying to send two values to a page, this is very similar to a previous
post that I saw on this newsgroup, not sure if it was resolved or not.
"Results.ASP" exists, I am thinking there is something wrong with my syntax.

onchange="parent.usbWindow.location.href='connector1=<%=cnt1%>&Results.asp?T
ype='+this.value;"

Thank you

You don't have a page name in your .href property. Is that your
intention? .href='PAGE.ASP?connector1=....'

Mr. Costanzo,

I am not getting the error, which is good, but it is not sending the value
of Connector1

onchange=parent.usbWindow.location.href='Results.asp?Type='+this.value;
Connector1=' & <%=cnt1%> & ';

The response.write of my SQL statement is
SELECT * FROM Perps where Connector1 = '' and Type = 'Type 1'
Form is using GET method

Results.ASP has
Connector1 = Request.QueryString("cnt1")

Try Request.Querystring("Connector1") after correcting the .href
property. Try this for your .href property.

onchange="parent.usbWindow.location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=c
nt1%>&type=' + this.value + ';"

I think it should be:

onchange="parent.usbWindow.location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=c
nt1%>&type=" + this.value + ";'"

Otherwise, the string literal "this.value" is embedded in there...

 

[Aaron [SQL Server MVP]]

Whoops.

onchange="parent.usbWindow.location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=c
nt1%>&type=" + this.value + "';"

It is giving me runtime error "Expected ;"

Try Request.Querystring("Connector1") after correcting the .href
property. Try this for your .href property.

onchange="parent.usbWindow.location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=c
nt1%>&type=' + this.value + ';"

Yes, welcome to the world of debugging your code...

Receiving an "unterminated string constant error" All quotes seem to be
fine to me.

The way your URL would be interpreted would be

connector1=xxx&Results.asp?Type=xxx

Obviously that's not a valid URL. If Results.asp is the page you
want to go to, the URL should be
'Results.asp?put your variables here'.

That would result in:

onchange="..href='page.asp"...

I had an extra ' in my post though as well.


HERE:

onchange="location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=cnt1%>&type=' +
this.value;"

Or in a sample:

<% cnt1 = "xxx" %>
<select
onchange="location.href='results.asp?connector1=<%=cnt1%>&type=' +
this.value;">
<option>kjasd</option>
<option value="kjasdkj">kjasdf</option>
</select>

this.value;">

Ok, I think you need to swap the last ;" to be ";

 

[Ray Costanzo [MVP]]

No, ;" is correct I believe, since it's terminating the javascript
line. The " is just encapsulating all the text that just so happens
to be javascript.

The semi-colon terminates AFTER the string. You don't say alert("foo;") you
say alert("foo");
also you don't say a = "foo;" you say var a = "foo"; ...

Right, but my string, 'result.asp?...' was delimited by '. The
onchange attribute value is what's delimited by ".
