Classic ASP Reading Forms
The Form collection is used to retrieve the values of form elements from a form that uses the POST method.
Note: If you want to post large amounts of data (beyond 100 kb) the Request.Form cannot be used.
Arguments:
Request.Form(element)[(index)|.Count]
- element (Required)
The name of the form element from which the collection is to retrieve values - index (Optional)
Specifies one of multiple values for a parameter. From 1 to Request.Form(parameter).Count.
Examples:
You can request form values by using the following example:
<% Request.Form("name") %>
The above example would display the value entered into the HTML field called "name".
This next example would allow you to reteive multiple values from fields of the same name.
<% for i=1 to Request.Form("color").Count Response.Write(Request.Form("color")(i) & "<br />") next %>
You can grab all the data sent via a form by doing the following:
<% = Request.Form() %>
As we have not set a form field to get data from, it will return all data submitted.
