Seriously, have you even tried searching for this? <-- You bet I do. I
work at this 9-10 hrs a day. OK, now I can pass variables between
scripts
(<input type=hidden . . . and request.queryString, etc) but how about
arrays - hundreds of subsets? I've tried catting all the subs into a
string and then passing the string (and then var RecordsToPrint =
String( Request.QueryString("string" ) ); and RecordsArray =
RecordsToPrint.split(" " ); ).
It works, but not when I use xxxx.redirect();

Non of your business!
This is about Javascript here, not about what we do with our time.

Probably most of us know tha answer already,
but your exact Q is another matter.

most of us stop and think,
then try and debug the logical outcome of the thought-process.

Building javscript scripts form seaching the scripts of others seems a
nice shortcut, but as you lacked the thought and debugging cyclus you
ware boud to get into trouble later, when you are using lines you do not
realy understand.

<-- You bet I do. I

No, we are not that interested in what you do.
and betting is not a subject of this NG.

That is not between scripts, Javascript-scripts I presume you mean, but
between html-pages.

Lots of info can be passed that way,
but there is a limit to the form-get/querystring(),
that is absent in the form-post/form() method.

I suggest you use the latter.

You are not confined to a real input-hidden method,
you could also use a virtual dom-form directly
with clientside Javascript.

[virtual in the sense that the form is not appended to the dom-tree]

This was discussed recently in this NG:

var form = document.createElement("form");
form.setAttribute("method", "post");
form.setAttribute("action", destinationUrl );
// form.setAttribute("target", "resultTarget");
var hiddenField = document.createElement("input");
hiddenField.setAttribute("name", "t");
hiddenField.setAttribute("value", allTheInfoAsPuppetsOnAString );
form.appendChild(hiddenField);
form.submit();

Does the amout matter? an array is just a number of variables.

I prefer dogging, and debugging ofcourse.

What subs, subroutines, perchance?

Ah, do you mean members of an array into a concatenated string,
as we told you? but that was for conversion between vbs and js, I seem to
remember.

This is stange.

Why this capitation and why converting a string into a string?

error, second ")".

> It works,

It cannot, gave an error.

but not when I use xxxx.redirect();

Yes? What would you like to have worked?

Read up on "does not work" crazyness.

================================

I do send lots of information tot the server where the
allTheInfoAsPuppetsOnAString even could be a whole html-page to be parsed
on the server.

If you define the "target" as another window, a page's javascript could
also send these form-data repeatedly, say a 1000 times, without
interruption, given a reasonable time-out and error-recovery where data
is missing.
