insert success message

[wee_elks]

I have several pages that insert records into a sql db. Some of them take the
user back to the insert page so they can insert another record. How can I add
some script to say that the previous insert worked?

On your redirect append a parameter to the URL and then on the insert page
so a message depending upon the URL parameter exisiting

Thanks Paul. Can you either direct me to or give me an example.

Here is my redirect as it is now:

MM_editRedirectUrl = "input_sales.asp"

[Paul Whitham TMM]

You would change this to

MM_editRedirectUrl = "input_sales.asp?success=yes"

and then on the input_sales.asp page you would have the following

<%
if request.Querystring("success") = "yes" then
response.write("your success message")
End if
%>
