When you try with 2 page. did not get the same value in the text box.But with single page it happen.Because of same page posting.the page cycle is the right term for 2 pages.But for single page it is simple POSTING.

I created two different pages named page1.aspx and page2.aspx. Both pages carrying a textbox and a button. On the click of button on page1 It redirected to page2 and vice versa. When I added 'b' in textbox on page2 and clicked button. It redirected me to page1. When I checked source in firebug section Response post and HTML under Post--paramerter section it was showing button text and textbox value which was on page2. And one more thing i noted in HTML section page1 had two textboxes and two buttons but when i checked pageViewSource then it was showing only two tags one for textbox and one for button. BTW I didn't get what exactly you wanted to show me by redirection between two pages? Thanks Naveen.

You mean it is HTTP Response?

Naveen Verma · Answer

No The reason is the same page go and come again. and there is no action perform on the click of the button. You can use 2 page.Redirect by each other.Then see what happen. I thing you could find your answer after this. If it helps reply me.

Is this for ASP? If so then it should have been put into the ASP forum. Please tell us if it is ASP since the asnswer depends on it.
