Re: Net.data - Variable Scoping

Don,

Every time you make a request to the server, you are going to lose
anything you don't pass in on the request. It sounds like what you need
to do is either add parameters to your links so they pass whatever you
need to save in or you need to use forms to interact with the server
instead of just links.

Pete - That's what I have attempted to do, but I just get LOST in the
"looping".  I was just hoping to set up the fields as GLOBAL variables
somehow, but there does not seem to be a surefire way to do that either.

You could write hidden form fields containing the date range in the data
entry form page. When you post it, the data will be available to the cgi
program just like any other form field. The html element would be
something like: <input type="hidden", value="whatever" />

I read a file which contains the beginning and ending dates of a 2 
week (14
days) Pay Period.  The user selects one of the 26 Pay Period lines (in

a Year) which returns a href statement with the values of the 
beginning and ending date fields.  This then displays all of the 14 
individual days (for timesheet
update) from the pre-prepared 14 daily timesheet days for that user.  

The user then selects one of these days - which then performs another 
href with all of the individual day's fields - in UPDATE mode - where 
the User can now enter his timesheet data.
  
When the user updates his timesheet data on that one day, I would like

to re- display all of the 14 days in this pay period, (BASED ON THE 
beginning and ending dates from the first selection ABOVE), but I 
cannot figure out how to SAVE and PASS the beginning and ending Pay 
Period dates from the very first selection made above???
