ASPRunnerPro General questions

Is there any way of an ASP Runner active server page to return a list of records based on the URL I enter.
For example, I want to do something like this:
http://localhost/editcompany.asp?companyID=1
This would then display the company with ID=1 in the editcompany.asp page.
or http://localhost/listcompany.asp?city=london
Would then list all companies where the data in the field [city] equalled "london"
Is this possible???

Currently it's not possible with ASPRunner.
You can do this if you pass parameters through URL and change ASP page to read data from Request.QueryString instead of Request.Form.

I am using an old version (2.4) of ASPRunner and I am using a form to get search results.

The code is a part of the generated list.page.
<form method="post" action="your_list.asp" name="frmAdmin">

<input type="hidden" id="action" name="action" value="Search">

<input type="hidden" id="SearchField" name="SearchField" value="AnyField">

<input type="hidden" id="SearchOption" name="SearchOption" value="Contains">

<input type="text" size="20" name="SearchFor">
<input type="button" name="SearchButton" value="Search" onClick="java script: document.forms.frmAdmin.action.value = 'Search'; document.forms.frmAdmin.submit();">

</form>
When passing the same parameters to a hyperlink it is not working, I don't now why.

This feature didn't exist in ASPRunner 2.4. Consider upgrading to ASPRunnerPro 4.0.
