Variable not passing - ASP / Active Server Pages

tshad

I have a simple asp page that doesn't seem to pass the contents of my text
box. It does show the variable name, but no value.

**********************************************
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>

<body>
<form method="GET" action="atestbytfs.asp">
<table width="90%" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="50%"><div align="right">Referral ID: </div></td>
<td> <input type="text" id="referralID"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td><input type="submit" value="Submit"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>
************************************************** ************

After I put something in the box and press the submit button, I get the
following when it calls a page:

http://www.interez.com/atestbytfs.asp?

No value.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Tom.

You get a seeq.com search page? Interesting. ;]

Give your textbox a NAME. ID isn't enough.
<input name="nameHere" type="text......
