How do I write a page so it reloads with new data

[ahill 0]

Hey guys new to ASP so my terminology may not be quite right. Looking to build a page that has a table that it pulls from SQL database. Every time you click on an image on the table i want the page to pull the variable and reload in the same page to a new variable. So it sort of drills down variables.

 

Currently my page pulls from my database and displays images the way it needs to. Now i need to be able to click on the image and have the page reload into the same page with the variable selected. My database is set up already.

This is currently the code I have to display the table with images

SQL = "select type from resources group by type order by type"

RSb.Open SQL,Conn

Dim mytype,mr,mpic

mr = 1

If rsb.eof then

'response.write "NOT FOUND"

else

do until rsb.eof

mytype = trim(rsb("type"))

mpic = mytype & ".JPG"

If mr = 1 then

response.write "<tr>"

end if

Response.write "<td><img src=""images/"& mpic &""" />"

Response.write mpic & "</td>"

If mr = 3 then

mr = 0

response.write "</tr>"

end if

mr = mr + 1

rsb.movenext

loop

response.write "</table>"

end if

%>

Write out links with the values in the link, e.g.:page.asp?type=waterYou can use Request.QueryString to get variables in the URL to see what was passed, and query the database appropriately.

i am using vbscript for coding

I understand that, but this is an ASP question. URLs don't apply to VB scripts outside of ASP. If your topic can go in multiple forums then pick the one that best fits.

ok so vb does not matter on the code end of the page?

I was told by someone else that I had to use If Else Statements

You'll need to write your code in VBScript if that's what you're using with ASP, yes. Correct, you'll use if statements to check if the name is in the list of things you want to skip. There's a brief description here:http://www.w3schools.com/vbscript/vbscript_conditionals.aspIt looks like they only use the = operator in those examples, the other operators you can use are listed here:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9hck4s70(v=vs.84).aspx
