Passes variable when button is clicked...HELP!

Sep 30th, 2005

I have a table displaying the list of vendors from the database.
I have to select one row (vendor details).

For VendorID:
------------------------Start---------------------
<table>
<tr>
<td>Name</td>
<td>Telephone</td>
<td>Email</td>
</tr>
<%do while not rs.eof%>
<tr>
<td onClick="HighLightTR('#cccccc','cc3333');"><input type="hidden" name="vendorid" value="<%=rs("VendorID")%>"><%=rs("Name")%></td>
<td><%=rs("Tel")%></td>
<td><%=rs("Email")%></td>
</tr>
<%rs.movenext
loop%>
</table>
--------------------------End-------------------------

The page also has the PropertyID which comes from the previous page.
For PropertyID:

-------------------------Start------------------------
<input type="hidden" name="propid"> value="<%=request.Form("propid")%>">
--------------------------End-------------------------

The [vendor] record selected is highlighted (i did not put the javascript script for highlighting in here). If the user click the button (below) or an image link, the 'PropertyID' and 'VendorID' will be passed on to the next page, then display the details of the vendor selected.

For button:
-------------------------Start-------------------------
<input type="button" value=" Select " onClick="onClick="window.location.href='select_owner_update.asp?propid=<%=ra("PropertyID")%>&vendorid=<%=rs("VendorID")%>';"">
--------------------------End--------------------------

Would that be possible?

How? :-| Can somebody help me with this problem?

Have a nice day!

Lots of thanks,
Francis

 Help with Code Tags 
 ASP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="get" action="next.asp">
  <select name="vendor" id="vendor">
    <option value="1">vendor1</option>
    <option value="2">vendor2</option>
    <option value="3">vendor3</option>
    <option value="4">vendor4</option>
    <option value="5">vendor5</option>
  </select>
  <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="get" action="next.asp">
  <select name="vendor" id="vendor">
    <option value="1">vendor1</option>
    <option value="2">vendor2</option>
    <option value="3">vendor3</option>
    <option value="4">vendor4</option>
    <option value="5">vendor5</option>
  </select>
  <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

then on your contact page have a recordset retrieve the values from the dbase using response.querystring("vendor") the above code sends the vale to the option in a querystring
