Request.Form collection lost on submit
|
|
|
| Hi all
IIS 5.0, ASP, and https://
I have "DataEntrypage.asp" which is a data entry page(about 250
data elements includes text boxes, radio buttons, check boxes, drop down
boxes etc).
After the data validation through javascript(form.action =
"ProcessData.asp" )I post this page to "ProcessData.asp" which process all
the database transactions like updates, deletes and inserts.
At the begining/top of the "ProcessData.asp" I loop through
Request.Form collection and store them in a text file on the WEB SERVER.
Once in a while the whole Request.Form collection is disappearing in
the text file. At that instances it is creating the text file with size of
1kb but it is not
showing any thing in the file.
I checked and it is not loosing the session information.
Does any one ran into this situation. Any lead will be appreciated.
Thanks
mvr

| Have you ever seen this behavior directly? Like, instead of seeing an empty
file and assuming that means that the request.form collection is empty? How
do you know it's not something else?

Yes, I saw the result directly on my database tables.
In the case of empty request.form collection the table's are updated with
null values, clearing the old prefill data.
(Programmed under the assumption that we will get data by request.form
collection and the page "ProcessData.asp" process the update based on the
request.form values )
The key feild I use to update is the logged in user(a session variable). I
see an updated executed by this user on the database table.
Apart from the session variable I was trapping the user's browser info,
which I can see on the text file I created.
I started creating this text file only after the fact that we are loosing
some data.
Thanks

And just how do you prevent processes from stepping on each other? Do you
create a different text file for each session? If not, I would expect
exactly the type of behavior you describe.

| I have seen the request.form collection be empty when using Windows
authentication on a site. Are you using that?

| Do you mean, "Integrated Windows authentication" on Authentication Methods.
If so "Yes" we are us windows authentication.
