ASP is processed *before* the results are sent to the browser. When the
user requests the page it runs this code server-side;
Session("namevalue")= this.name.value
It doesn't know what "this" is so throws that error. You will need to
submit your form to an ASP page to store the form's value in the Session,
and maybe re-direct to your intended page after that.

Subject: [ASP] Session to store form element value
Hi!
could anyone help?
I have a question related with the use of Session to store the value
of a form element.
I need that in order to pass this value to a "redirected" asp page,
in a form which has action="xxxx.pl".
if I use the command:
onSubmit='<% Session("namevalue")= this.name.value %>'
I get the error: Microsoft VBScript error '800a01a8' Object
required: ''
I post the whole code:
<Form name="form" method="POST" action="xxxxxx/FormMail.pl"
onSubmit='<% Session("namevalue")= this.name.value %>'>
<input type = "hidden" name="recipient" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"> <input type
= "hidden" name="redirect"
value="http://xxx.xxx.xxx/confirm.asp";>
<input id="name" type="text" size="30"><input type="submit"
name="send" value="submit!">
<input name="cancel" type="reset" value="cancel" >
</form>
I've tried with
onSubmit='<% Session("namevalue")=Request.form("name") %>' but it
doesn't work, either I use runat="server" or not.
Thank you very much for all!
Clara
