When you submit a form, all data in that form will be available in 
variables whose names correspond to the name of the field:

   <FORM>
   <INPUT    NAME="My_Number" TYPE="text" SIZE="20">
   <TEXTAREA NAME="My_Text"   ROWS="5" COLS=20"></TEXTAREA>
   <INPUT    NAME="My_Action" TYPE="Submit"VALUE="Submit Form">
   </FORM>

Yields variables named:

   #My_Number#
   #My_Text#
   #My_Action#

This refers to the form fields generically, regardless of how the 
form was submitted.

Depending on the METHOD in the FORM tag, you can also specify these 
field by prepending their scope (recommended).

For <FORM METHOD="Get">

   #URL.My_Number#
   #URL.My_Text#
   #URL.My_Action#

For <FORM METHOD="Post">

   #FORM.My_Number#
   #FORM.My_Text#
   #FORM.My_Action#
