I am using dreamweaver to let users input some criteria that they want on a form on a html page, and then submit it, and a results page comes (its an ASP page) up with the results from a database based on that criteria. This works fine.However, along with limiting what records from the database are displayed, I also want to limit the columns that are displayed. On the input page the users will be able to choose what columns they see in their results. When submitted the request will show the results with only those columns that the user has specified.
How do you build the table in the results page? You don't yet know how many columns there will be, or what they are called. I don't have great knowledge of ASP and can't seem to do this through Dreamweaver.
I cannot work out how to do this. Any ideas???
