My form variables are not being passed to server script!

    This script handles a form submission with a text area and a text field, I can see the vars in my header in proper pairs, however the Response.Writes show up as blank. Can someone see what stupid little thing I am missing here?

    If you're using <form method="post"> then you should use Request.Form rather than Request.Querystring:
    
Memo=Request.Form("Memo")
Email=Request.Form("Email")
Response.Write(Memo)
Response.Write(Email)
    Code (markup):
    If you're using <form method="get"> or you haven't set a method at all, then try typing in the url of your webpage like this, and see if you get anything to show up:
    
http://www.mydomain.com/myfolder/mypage.asp?Memo=Hello+World
    Code (markup):
    Also, remember that form names ARE CASE SENSITIVE. So Request.Form("Memo") is completely different to Request.Form("memo").

    Hope this solves your problem :)
