Dreamweaver HELP with passing form data to .asp page
Here's my problem,
I have a form where the user fills out various information about themselves,such as Last Name, First Name, Address, etc. . I'm having a problem displaying the information on an .asp page after the user hits the "submit" button.
Basically, on the .asp page, I want to thank the user using their first and last name, and also display their city and state which they entered on the
forms page. The problem is tha I can't get the .asp page to work properly.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this. Basically if anyone could help me with the code for the .asp page that would be great. Here is the code for the forms page (sorry about the length of it):
