I have written in VB6 and .NET for a couple years. I am new to VBScript and have an asp page I need to modify. The user inputs search criteria, clicks Submit and a SQL Select statement is executed. If data is returned, I build a table on the fly that has one row for each row in the dataset. This works fine.

What I want to do is allow the user to click an item in the row to trigger the display of another table, this one with detail information. I want all this to appear on the same page *and* keep the search criteria and overview table described above.

Rather than type out the 18 things I've tried, let me ask these questions: Is there a good web site out there that explains how to keep the contents of your page while processing a form on that page? How would you approach this step in development? I greatly appreciate all pointers. I am so used to writing code in VB6 and VB.NET that I am having some problems here.

[8]I would pass a value to the page using either get (passing a value in the link) or post (passing a hidden value). The same information which is displayed can still display - along with additional information you elected in your passed parameter. If this does not make sense to you, email me and I am sure I can help you with this :-)
