Passing form data to ASP code in the same page

[shaunk]

I am building a footy tipping website.
I have an ASP page that is mostly html form entry/validation code and some VBscript/ASP code to access a D/B to display the Round's games.

On initial load, the page is not intended to display the rounds, but on selection of a round by the user, I wish to pass the round number to the SQL string and refresh the page with the games for the round.

I am having trouble passing the Form value to the server code that accesses the D/B.

POST the form values and use request.form to capture the incoming values.

dim varName

if request.form("form_item_name") <> ""
   varName = request.form("form_item_name")
else
   varName =  some_default_value
end if

'  do your db processing after this.
