Caching and displaying

[Anon]

I got this idea from a page and have no idea whatsoever how to code it, dont know where to start, not even where to look for and learn it myself... So I'm posting here on this trusty boards 🙂

I have a page displaying rows of records from my database.

1) I need to add a field where a user can click on it (a link) and it will store the , say ID, of the field and remembers it (the specific row).

Multiple links can be clicked and they will all be stored in the 'clipboard' (something related to cookies?)

2) Then, upon calling to a page, it will show all the rows stored on the 'clipboard'

I'm sure this is possible because it is being done, but in asp.. Could anyone help me out?

Thanks a million!

I would also like the stored values be kept in the 'clipboard' until the user clears the internet temp files.. ie, even if he closes the browser, the specific rows stored should always be there when a new browser is opened and accessd to the 'clipboard' page.

Furthermore, users can 'delete' a stored entry from the 'clipboard'..

This sounds to me to be related to 'cookies'..

Could someone help me out? Im not asking for someone to completely code this (not that I won't appreciate it if someone has the time...) Just an example or a direction, or even an URL to an article or something will be verr helpful 🙂

Thanks for your time.
