Request.Form has no value after setting a hidden field

[briancostea]

The alert boxes produce the correct output, but the Response.Write Request.Form("exp") statement produces no output. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

%>
<form name=shw>
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=exp id=exp>
</form>
<script language="JavaScript">
alert(parent.left.document.frmDisp.lstExperts.value);
document.shw.exp.value =
parent.left.document.frmDisp.lstExperts.value;
alert(document.shw.exp.value);
</script>
<%
Response.Write (Request.Form("exp"))

onchange call function that contains a

window.location.href= "[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.hlbcomm.com/NewWebsite/portfolio/port.asp?q=whatever";[/URL]

That won't work. It will just submit the same page over and over - I will never be able to show the results of the serach in the right frame. Besides, I will still have the same problem of trying to get a value from the parent frame.
