Hi
I'm stuck again!
I am trying to pass variables which I am picking up from a form as part of a URL to another form

<INPUT TYPE=&quot;TEXT&quot; NAME=&quot;description&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 10;&quot; SIZE=12 MAXLENGTH=100 VALUE=&quot;&quot; &_
Request(&quot;description&quot & &quot;&quot;></TD>

I now add a value to the text box description
However when I try Request.Form(&quot;description&quot the value is empty
Any idea's?

Thanks
Stessie

stessie,

If you are using METHOD=GET, use request.querystring(&quot;name&quot

If you are using METHOD=POST, use request.form(&quot;name&quot

Two comments:
1) If you use Request(&quot;name&quot then you don't have to worry about what type of request is being sent. ASP is first check the Querystring, then the POST data, then the Session, then the Cookie. Don't quote me on the last two.

2) It is hard to tell what is happening in your example. It would help if you included more code. Is this output in a Response.write? We don't know based on your example.

Try:

<INPUT TYPE=&quot;TEXT&quot; NAME=&quot;description&quot; style=&quot;font-size:10;&quot; SIZE=12 MAXLENGTH=100 VALUE=&quot;<%=Request(&quot;description&quot;)%>&quot;>
