Separating out concatenated values in Request.Form

Re: Separating out concatenated values in Request.Form

what you mean you want to seperate them? if you want them seprate, then
combined try this........... .

ID1 = Request.QuerySt ring("ID1")
ID2 = Request.QuerySt ring("ID2")
UrlParms = ID1 & "&" & ID2

that separates them so you can use each indvidually, then recombine them
after defning........ .....im not 100% sure what ur asking, so hope this
helps.

Re: Separating out concatenated values in Request.Form

James,

In mypage2.asp I'd like to get the value of ID2, but ID2 isn't in my
query string. It's a hidden control on mypage1.asp that's storing a
concatenated string "ID1=97702& ID2=2235"

In mypage2.asp, I see: Request.Form("U rlParms") = "ID1=97702&ID2= 2235"

I can use string manipulation functions to split them, like a Mid() or
Split() (I'd need to double check what I can do in classic asp), but I
wondered if there was a built-in way to do this.

For instance, if "ID1=97702&ID2= 2235" was in my query string I could do
Request.QuerySt ring("ID2").

Thanks,
Eric

If you think you are providing some sort of security by doing this, then
think again.

dim ar,arid2,id2
ar=split(Reques t.Form("UrlParm s"),"&")
arid2=Split(ar( 1),"=")
id2=arid2(1)

You'll need to supply some error-handling as well as some checks that
the arrays that result from the split method contain the expected number
of elements.

Re: Separating out concatenated values in Request.Form

Hello,

I guess that I'll have to do a split then. I'm working in a pretty big
classic asp application. For some new functionality, I need to get the
value of ID2 in mypage2.asp. The code concatenating ID1 and ID2 in the
URLparams hidden variable in mypage1.asp was already there. I'd rather
not change it, since I don't want to risk breaking something else.

try:

result = myRequestform(" UrlParms","ID2" )

function myRequestform(a ,b)
temp = "&" & Request.Form(a) & "&"
n = instr(temp,"&"& b&"=")
if n=0 then myRequestform ="":exit function
n = n + len("&"&b&"=")
temp = mid(temp,n)
n = instr(temp,"&")-1
myRequestform = left(temp,n)
end function
