Hello, I curently have a script that is a resume and people can fill it out with all their information. when they are done filling it out they can hit the submit button and it then sends them to a page that shows them the final result of their input with text formatting and so on. But on the review page I have a link that returns them to the form and there is also another button at the bottom that says "save" I want them to be able to press this button and submit their information to another page that would write all their info to the databse so they can pull it up later. The reason I wanted to return them to the form page to save and not the review page is I did not think that I could pass the information form the review page to a new page to save. The only way I know to submit information to a page is through a form without setting every input to a session variable. Any suggestion on a way to get this done would be appreciated. If it would help the page in question is on http://in-r8web.ivytech.edu/mberry25260/resume.htm this is not for the class so dont worry about me cheating. I just thought it might be fun to make the resume mor interactive. The assignment was to actually just recreate the resum with tables. Again thanks for any help.
 
Do the whole thing w/ ASP and the DB
Save the data to the DB w/ the submit button (form action your saveresume.asp page)
- you can't have the Save button as a hyperlink
View the data saved from the DB on the next page
Re-save or edit the data from the viewed page

PS
You note about names at the bottom of the form needs to be at the top of the form
IMHO
- first,middle,last will not guarantee a unique ID
