Question

I’m Creating an asp.net Web Site using C#.

I have a page called Set Event which has some text fields. After filling some of them there is a button that redirects the user to another page. This page has a button that will do some database process and then redirects to the previous page.

After that page processes I want to redirect back to the previous page (Set Event) to fill other text fields.

The question is: when I redirect to the previous page my previous filled data is gone–empty text boxes. Where has my data gone?

Answer 1

You have two options (IMO)

1. Keep passing the data back and forth from client to server, i.e. hidden fields, viewstate, etc.

2. save the data in Session, i.e. Session[“field1”] = “field1data”, or a database, cache, etc.

then recall it on the original page.
