I have a form on a page with validation that the required data has been entered. If all the data has been entered it gets written to my database otherwise I display a message in the form which data is missing.
The problem is when I return to the page using response.redirect all the fields in the form have been reset. How do I prevent this from happening?
Well, I'm not an ASP.NET expert (yet). I still use Classic ASP. The way I would handle that is with session variables. When the data is submitted, gather it up into a session variable.
Session("FirstName") = Request("FirstName")
Now if you have to redirect them back to the form because of bad data, make those session variables the VALUEs in the fields.
