After submitting the data from our online forms, we use the ActivePDF
toolkit to create a new PDF.  But We get the field as "30", so the resulting
PDF shows that field as "30", and the formatting doesnt get done until a
user enters that field.  But that cant work for us because the new PDF will
be a read-only file, and the values cant be changed.

In my Delphi built ISAPI
(http://www.blumberglegalforms.com/cgi-bin/BFOmain.dll/ViewData), all this
script does is return the request content...
Response.content := Request.Content;

If you type "30", the formating fixes it to "$30.00".  But only "30", in
which you type in, gets submitted.  If you type "30.00", you will get
"30.00" that was submitted.  I dont understand why the value after the
validation doesnt get submitted.
