That's not it. I have no trouble with POSTing form data to my 400. What
the MSDN article seems to say is that you can put editable HTML elements
*inside* a form. Then those elements can be POSTed to the server.
I want to let the user write/change a piece of HTML in a WYSIWYG
environment and post that generated HTML to the server, so I can store said
HTML in a physical file. I do not want the user to store the generated
HTML on his hard drive.

So.....you're just trying to understand how to get HTML Form data to the
AS/400? Is that correct? And then you'll have to do something with that
Form data once it gets to the AS/400, right? Is that what you're trying to
understand? If it is...
If I might suggest a tutorial that will teach you how to do this....click
on
this link if you're interested in such a beast.....--->

If that's not it, then I apologize because if that's not it, then I'm still
not understanding your question.
