Hello,


I have an aspx page titled Search.aspx.  Within this page, I have a user control titled Search.ascx.  I want a user to input search terms, then on the click of a button, I want to pass the values to another page (SearchResults.aspx)....which will then display the results in a user control.


Can someone please give me some suggestions on how to do this?  


Thanks a lot!

Hello, what you can do is:


inside ur usercontrol, create a method that returns a dataset or datareader. that is, since u are searching using the usercontrol, then the result of ur search will be returned by a method of type either dataset or datareader.


and in ur code-behind of the aspx page u can use it as follows:


protected Myusercontrol user;


private DataSet ds = user.GetResults();


and then u might want to put it in a session variable or xml file and then u will be able to access it from the SearchResults.aspx


but why do u want to show results in another page ?
