Hi

I have a simple ASP page with this form in it :

<form method=&quot;post&quot; name=&quot;process&quot; action=&quot;.\Process.asp&quot; target=_blank>
<textarea name=&quot;Box1&quot; cols=80 rows=10></textarea>
<INPUT type=&quot;submit&quot; name=&quot;Send&quot; value=&quot;Send&quot;>
</form>

In process.asp, I try to retrieve the value from the textarea with Request.Form(&quot;Box1&quot;), but it's always empty... Is there an obvious error here?

Thanks
 
it worked for me. can you post the code you are using to retrieve the value of Request.Form(&quot;Box1&quot;)?
 
I was using this information to put it into a database :

...
valuesArray(3) = Request.Form(&quot;Box2&quot;)
call Upload.addImmediate(fieldsArray, valuesArray)

Apparently, there was something wrong with the database link, since a &quot;response.write&quot; showed that the data was transferred correctly to this page. I just fixed it (the problem was on the SQL server side) and everything works fine now. Thanks for your help!

yeah, i just did a response.write and it showed the data in the form field.

glad you got it working.
