Entry
How can I get the data from the response to the browser from a submit()? Do I need a seperate function to receive it?

Delf Burkhardt, Paul Keefe,
This solution works in newer Browsers
NS 4.5++, IE4++
Just create two html-files and name them step1.html, step2.html
Copy/paste,
file 1 starts here :
<html>
<head>
<title>submit</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="step2.html">
<input type="hidden" value="topsecret" name="hiddenfield"><br>
<input type="text" value="" name="input_1" size="30"><br>
<input type="text" value="" name="input_2" size="30"><br>
<input type="text" value="" name="input_3" size="30"><br>
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Answer-Form</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
//
var esc = unescape(location.search);
var ss = esc.substring(1,esc.length);
var ok = false;
var myTitle=new Array();
var myContent= new Array();
var cur="";
if(ss.length!=0){
ok=true;
ss= unescape(ss);
str=ss.split('&');
for (var i=0; i<str.length;i++){
cur=str[i].split('=');
if (cur.length==2){
myTitle[i]=cur[0];
myContent[i]=cur[1];
}
else{
myTitle[i]="";
myContent[i]=cur[0];
}
}
}
function getValues(){
var str="";
for(var i=0;i<myTitle.length;i++){
str+=myTitle[i]+" = " +myContent[i]+"<br>";
}
return str;
}
document.write(getValues());
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
