Request.Form & Arrays

[James Baker]

I'm trying to use Request.Form to gather information in an array and I keep
getting a type mismatch...not sure if it's even possible. Basically, Page 1
posts to Page 2...and Page 1 contains a variable declared as:

Dim mLic(50)

....which is then populated. When I try:

Request.Form("mLic()") or
Request.Form("mLic") or
Request.Form("mLic(50)")

I get a type mismatch every time. Is there a better/right way to do this?

Thanks!
James

How are you sending an "array" via post? Get and Post handle strings
only... you't can pass an array like this and retrieve it via the request
collection.

Does this occur in client-side or server-side code?

Server side...I realized the error of my ways when trying to "POST" the
array. Now I'm searching for a better approach.
