extracting from a string - Classic ASP

Hi there,

My form has the structure shown below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="POST" action="../../Codes_my/confirmScheduling.asp">
      <table class="table table-striped">
<tr>
<th>Day/Time</th>
<th>Mo </th>
<th>Tue </th>
<th>Wed </th>
<th>Thu </th>
<th>Fri </th>
<th>Sat </th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>7h30min - 8h20min</th>
<td><% If ... Then %>
<input name="hiddHorarioID" type="hidden" id="hiddHorario47" value="475_<%= ThisDay(4)%>" size="5" />
              <button class="btn btn-primary btn-sm" type="submit">five credits</button>
<% Else %>
              <% If ... Then %>
              <button class="btn btn-info btn-xs disabled" type="submit">reserved</button>
              <% Else %>
              <button class="btn btn-primary btn-xs disabled" type="submit">reserved</button>
              <% End If %>
              <% End If %>
              </td>
<td><% If ... Then %>
<input name="hiddHorarioID" type="hidden" id="hiddHorario57" value="575_<%= ThisDay(5)%>" size="5" />
              <button class="btn btn-primary btn-sm" type="submit">five credits</button>
<% Else %>
                   <% If ... Then %>
                              ...
              <% Else %>
                              ...
                   <% End If %>
              <% End If %>
              </td>
etc
</tr></table>
</form>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The problem is that when the user clicks one of the buttons, the string "carried" by the string variable "texto"

texto = CStr(Request.Form("hiddHorarioID"))

present in the confirmScheduling.asp is something like that:

texto = 415_7/20/2017, 515_7/21/2017, 225_7/18/2017, 325_7/19/2017, 425_7/20/2017, 727_7/23/2017, 235_7/18/2017, 435_7/20/2017, 145_7/17/2017, 245_7/18/2017, 345_7/19/2017, 445_7/20/2017, 545_7/21/2017, 155_7/17/2017, 255_7/18/2017, 355_7/19/2017, 455_7/20/2017, 165_7/17/2017, 265_7/18/2017, 365_7/19/2017, 175_7/17/2017

because it captures ALL "radio buttons" presented in the form, not only the one related to the button the user clicked.

How should I correct that, please?

Thanks a lot,

Hi, there!

First of all, thank you both for your time and expertise.

@Shaun :: I understand what you mean and, to be honest, I have already done that before, so it would not be hard for me to review my own code and do the same here. It is really a good idea to solve the problem, by the way.

@MlandaT :: great, this solves the problem (I tested it) and, important to mention, "corrects" my initial idea, as I have asked originally.

For other potential interested people and also for me, for future reference, I modified my code leaving exactly just this (I mean, substituing each "pair" input/button) :

<button class="btn btn-primary btn-sm" type="submit" name="hiddHorarioID" id="hiddHorario11" value="115_<%= ThisDay(1)%>">115_<%= ThisDay(1)%></button>

Thank you very much both of you. I hope to be fair in my judgement and splitting points...

Regards and see you in my next difficulties! :)
Fábio.
