Joe,

Have you looked at the text string of what is actually being sent back 
to your program from the web page's FORM?  This will direct you to where 
you issue is, and is easy enough to do in ObjectPal:
(Note - all this is off the top of my head, so ...)

myString = REQUEST.Content
myString.view() ; or ...
msgInfo("Returned:",myString)

You could also parse every REQUEST field using:
arKey.empty()
arVal.empty()
maxI = REQUEST.nFields - 1  ; does it need the minus 1?
for i from 0 to maxI
	arKey.addLast(REQUEST.getFieldName(i))
	arVal.addLast(REQUEST.getFieldByIndex(i))
endFor
arKey.view("Keys")
arVal.view("Values") ; or show how you want.

HTH,
Jim Moseley
