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. Mike E.

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.....---> http://www.snap-ebooks.com/RPGIV_and_CGI.htm If that's not it, then I apologize because if that's not it, then I'm still not understanding your question.
