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.

You get the contents of the text area using
Request.Form("nameOfYourTextArea")

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

<textarea
name="something"><%=Server.HTMLEncode(sYourVariableWithData)%></textarea>
