Question

I have a javascript code which builds a link with 2 params.

Now, I know how to post these params using the address, but I don’t want to use it.

I’ve tried using cookies for posting the params, but somehow I can’t read them on the server side.

this is the client side code

document.cookie="name="+"value";

this is the server side reading code

string s = Response.Cookies[cookieName].Value;

Can you hep me out?

Create a mini form (not an asp.NET web form, just a simple one) with two input type hidden fields named as your parameters. After that create a link or button an tie the onclick event of it to a javascript function (example: onclick=”javascript:postIt();”).

Then when user clicks the button or the link the function will replace the value of those parameter something like:

document.miniform.parameter1.value = yourvalue1;
document.miniform.parameter1.value = yourvalue2;
document.miniform.submit();

To get the parameters back into code use Request.form(“parameter1”) and so on…
