I have built a login page that uses the below process to login and check the user:

On a form action I call this page again (login.asp)

When the submit button <> "" (when it has been clicked) my page checks for blank fields. If these are okay it process a recordset to see if the user exists and checks if the password matches this user. If it does it redirects the user back to a page and logs them in as a session variable.

My question is this:

Is there a way I can redirect the user back to the page they clicked to get here from?

I have used the HTTP_REFERER code but because I send the page to itself to login the user this code obviously then sends the user back to login.asp

Is there a way that I can run a sub routine when a user clicks on a button rather than submitting the page to itself?

How would I call ASP from a form button?

Thanks

Maybe you should try to write the referrer into a hidden form field. Then when submitting the page to itself it also submits the link that you are looking for so you can use it later on (Request.Form("linkTextField")
