Request.Form..?

[kenjoswe]

Hi all,

I have a simple request: Search=Request.Form("Search&quot.

If I have a variable, lets say, "Much More" then the "Search" variable only contains "Much".

If it is a space in between, the variable only takes what is to the left in the Request.Form("Search&quot

How can I solve this?

When you set the form variable use Server.URLEncode .

Sorry,
I don't understand.
How should I use this in my example.

This is what I have tried:
Search=Request.Form(Server.URLEncode("Search&quot)

But I still get "Much" instead of "Much More"

What is the submitting form? Is it using a Post or a Get? Probably it is either using Forms with a Get or just a plain querystring. Whatever the case, either change it to POST or when the variable is set in the submitting page use Server.URLEncode method.

Example:
Submitting Page:

<form method=get action=&quot;page.asp&quot;>
<input type=hidden name=Search value=&quot;<%=Server.URLEncode(&quot;Much More&quot;)%>&quot;>
<input type=submit>
</form>

OR

<a href=&quot;page.asp?Search=<%=Server.URLEncode(&quot;Much More&quot;)%>&quot;>Link</a>

Retrieving Page:

Search = Request.Form("Search")

Without the Server.URLEncode, anything after the first space will be lost.
