texte = Hello,I am having trouble with a certain aspect of my website, and am hoping that someone can offer some assistance.I am attempting to use a form to submit some information into a database, by way of a text area. I am trying to use a replace command to change the contents to what was entered into the text field. I cannot seem to get the command to take action. However, I am not even sure if my HTML is correct; I have never owned a server before, so I have never worked with forms before.I assume that I make the form action equal the replace string. I have also tried to make the submit button action equal the replace string, but cannot get them to work. Where do I tell the form to act upon the replace string I have set up?Thanks in advance for any assistance...Dennis Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
