Sorry, it should have been test. So heres the real code snipets: ---------WORKS----------------------------- HTML: <td><textarea name="message_html" rows="" cols="">Hello <font>there</font>. This is html.</textarea></td><td><font color="red"></font></td> </tr> </table>
SUBMIT - EMBPERL PROCESS------------------- ... ### PROCESS FORM if($fdat{save} == 1){ die Dumper %fdat; ... SCREEN RESULTS------------------------------ [27335]ERR: 24: Error in Perl code: $VAR1 = 'message_subject'; $VAR2 = 'testing'; $VAR3 = 'id'; $VAR4 = '4'; $VAR5 = 'save'; $VAR6 = '1'; $VAR7 = 'message_plain'; $VAR8 = 'hello. This is text'; $VAR9 = 'message_name'; $VAR10 = 'test'; $VAR11 = 'message_html'; $VAR12 = 'Hello <font>there</font>. This is html.'; $VAR13 = 'message_template_ind'; $VAR14 = '1'; (looks good) ------DOES NOT WORK--------------------------------- HTML: ... <td><textarea name="message_html" rows="" cols="">Hello <font size="3">there</font>. This is html.</textarea></td><td><font color="red"></font></td> </tr> </table> ... SUBMIT - EMBPERL PROCESS------------------- ... ### PROCESS FORM if($fdat{save} == 1){ die Dumper %fdat; ... SCREEN RESULTS------------------------------ [27333]ERR: 24: Error in Perl code: $VAR1 = 'message_subject'; $VAR2 = 'testing'; $VAR3 = 'message_html Hello <font size'; $VAR4 = '"3">there</font>. This is html.'; $VAR5 = 'id'; $VAR6 = '4'; $VAR7 = 'save'; $VAR8 = '1'; $VAR9 = 'message_plain'; $VAR10 = 'hello. This is text'; $VAR11 = 'message_name'; $VAR12 = 'test'; $VAR13 = 'message_template_ind'; $VAR14 = '1'; ---END------------------------------------------------- so i'm guessing its the equals sign. I also tried putting an equal sign in other html input types such as a text with similar results. I also tried it w/o the quotes around the '3' and got back similar results. Is there maybe a setting i have to set or something? Seemed strange. Let me know if you need any more info.

I don't have this problem here. Entering a = works as expected. > Example: > > <form method="POST" name="todo"> > <input type="text" name="test">test=4</input> Here is no message_subject, should the name of the input be message_subject ? Do you have small example script that produces the error?
