You have to enclose everything that might have a space in it in your convertchars context, or the resulting spaces will ruin the URL. Try using this instead:http:// www.url.com/mappage?[convertchars db=dbs/mapformat.db]Street=[address1]&City=[city]&State=[state]&ZIP=[zip][/convertchars] ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
