Can't really tell without seeing your form but my first guess would be
that the HTML for the textfield looks something like this:
<input type="text" name=" bk_amt" ...>
Meaning that its name actually IS ' bk_amt' and not 'bk_amt'.
Therefore, when you try to access the field name without a space,
there is no such field, so you get nothing.
