Request.Form 'and' cdo.message

USING IIS 5.1, and Windows XP pro, the following form works on my system,
and I can use as many form elements as I wish, as long as all form elements
have the same name: "words", in this example.

Help -- why can`t I give each form element a different name? Any
suggestions will be gratefully appreciated.

Also,See example at very bottom of something that once worked on a remote
server, but doesn't on IIS 5.1, windows xp pro

You can name your form fields whatever you want, and then access them by
Request.Form("n ameOfInput")

MyMail.TextBody = Request.Form("i nput1") & vbCrLf & Request.Form("i nput2")

You're directly assigning the entire message body, the values of
request.form("w ords")

Why don't you do something like:

MessageBody = Request.Form("e mail1") & vbCrLf & _
Request.Form("n ame") & vbCrLf & _
Request.Form("p hone") & vbCrLf & _
Request.Form("w ords")

....

MyMail.TextBody = MessageBody

The example you have at the bottom could never have worked. All you do is
create the object and then type out Request.Form(". ..")... this should yield
a type mismatch error or something.
