I can get this to write to db no problem (first try even), but I would like to be able to make the posting process include a "preview" feature. I'm sure this is just my inexperience with the ASP request object, but here is what I'm attempting.

I want a 3 step posting process.

Page 1 - complete the form, which includes the HTML editor - hit submit
Page 2 - Resulting page gives a preview of the previous page's form contents - confirm submit
Page 3 - Confirmation page

Problem: I'm requesting the form contents on Page 2, but I keep getting the following error:

Request object, ASP 0102 (0x80004005) - The function expects a string as input.

This is what it is doing to the contents of the HTML editor:

=%3Cp%3E%26nbsp%3Badfadfadfafdasfdafaf%3C%2Fp%3E%0D%0A%3Cp%3E%26nbsp%3B%3C%2Fp%3E%

Any ideas? I want a preview function just like this Forum has.

Thanks.

Looks like it is html encoded, but that should not matter

I figured it out, I'm a dumb#$@. Nothing special, I just didn't type the request.form code correctly....

Thanks.
