When asp.net trace is enabled in web.config,
http://mywebserver/myApp/trace.axd list parameter/value pairs for each
control in the HTML Form, ok (this is basic asp.net information and work for
all asp.net applications independently how the asp.net application is
programmed)

I would like..to save this information to a file o database (because
trace.axd information is not persistente, ..is lost when application pool is
recycled)

somebody knows a configuration or toll that allows to do this?

thanks,
alexander

Hi,

ASP.NET provides TraceListener class, whichc serves as a base class for
trace listeners, objects which write trace data to a specified output. There
exists specific implementations of this such as ConsoleTraceListener and
what interesting here, TextWriterTraceListener. However, to integrate these
into ASP.NET (which uses its own TraceContext to write the trace data and
view it with Trace.axd) you need to turn a few switches.

You'll find information on:
