Pass data from asp

[Praetorian Guard]

Hello,

I have a form with a textarea and a submit button and that button will call
an asp file and this file will query the database. My question is how do I
pass the data to the html form so that it will be displayed in the textarea?

Thank you in advance.

Re: Pass data from asp

You get the contents of the text area using
Request.Form("n ameOfYourTextAr ea")

If you have data to display in a text area, you'd do:

<textarea
name="something "><%=Server.HTM LEncode(sYourVa riableWithData) %></textarea>
