Greetings,
I picked up this book - ASP Programming for the absolute beginner - and I think
there must be something missing from the example code because the value entered
into the field does not get displayed on the results page. It looks like the
code on the results page is correct but I can't say about the other page since
I am an absolute beginner. I am using XP Pro which is not mentioned in the
book.
I did not see this book on the good ASP books list so maybe it is poor.
Comments on that?
Below are the two "files" straight from the authors CD and their content. Is
there something missing? The next example uses similar code syntax and does
not work either.
RequestForm.asp

<body>
<p><b>This is an example of the Request Object!</b></p>
<form method="POST" action="RequestForm_Results.asp">
<p>This is a typical HTML form. In the space provided, enter your name
