ASP page turner
Hello experts,
I am trying to do a page turner for an app i am working, on, i had a bit of code, but i have had to change it to suit my site, but now unfortunately, it no longer works properly. The code was writtent to serach throughtthe database and display all records but i amedned the code to dispaly records where critera = variable. This is the problem I have;
if i get for example;
page << 1 of 3 >> for a set of records. and then clikck next >> to go to next record, it then becomes page << 2 of 7 >>.
CODESS BELOW.
ORIGINAL CODE:
Function owPreserve(owVariable,owDe
owTemp = Request.QueryString(owVari
'If the querystring contains any data it is counted as a variable change, if not the old variable is taken from the session or the default assigned
If Len(owTemp) = 0 Then
If Len(Session("user_"&owVari
owTemp = Session("user_"&owVariable
Else
owTemp = owDefault
End If
End If
Session("user_"&owVariable
owPreserve = owTemp
End Function
viewRange = owPreserve("range",1)
varCurPage = owPreserve("page",1)
%>
<%
globalPageSize = 5
oRs.cursorlocation=3
oRs.cachesize=5
If PageAction = "results" Then
'Builds the magical search sql query
Else
Sql = "SELECT * FROM [product] WHERE [range]="&viewRange&" AND [active]"
End If
oRs.Open Sql, oCn
If Not oRs.Eof Then
oRs.MoveFirst
oRs.PageSize = globalPageSize
maxpages = cint(oRs.pagecount)
If cint(varCurPage) > maxpages Then
varCurPage = 1
End If
oRs.AbsolutePage = varCurPage
nexpage = varCurPage + 1
prepage = varCurPage - 1
Else
varCurPage = 1
End If
Do While Not oRs.Eof And Not curRecord = oRs.PageSize
tId = oRs("id")
tTitle = oRs("title")
tFeatures = oRs("features")
tImage = oRs("image")
%>
<table align="center" border="0" cellspacing="10" cellpadding="0">

Thank you
Basically, the viewRange was passed in the QueryString originally, but you have changed this to post from a form. When you then navigate between the pages, passing data by QueryString, you lose this value. I have put it in, and allowed it to be resolved either from the Form or the QueryString.

hello, thanks for that, but now i et the following error;-
Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
/shop-gs/products.asp, line 62
rsQuery.AbsolutePage = varCurPage<-------Line 62.
Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
/shop-gs/products.asp, line 62
rsQuery.AbsolutePage = varCurPage<-------Line 62.
Try rsQuery.AbsolutePage = CInt(varCurPage)
Any better?

Do you get this error when you first go to the page, or when you click on one of the page links?
ASKER
when i go to the first page
That's before you hit the code I've changed then. Are you sure you're using the right URL? Has your session timed out?
ASKER
no it hasn't..

i have changed the entire code to the so now works fine!!!! but thanks for all the help
viewRange = cint(Request.Form("CID")) <----- I am passing a value to this from a previous page.
to
viewRange = cint(Request("CID")) <----- I am passing a value to this from a previous page.
and then change:
<a href="products.asp?page=<%
and similar links to:
<a href="products.asp?page=<%
