has fairly comprehensive info. Flash encodes the querystring itself, so
spaces and special characters would automatically be converted. ie, a field
name with a value of Paul Franks will automagically be converted to
name=Paul+Franks
Have you tried it?
What is being used on the server? ASP, CF, PHP or something else?
I use Post with ASP without any problem.

Subject: FLASH: Textfield problems


Hello all, I was hoping that someone on the list may be able to help me
out.
I have a script that takes information from various text fields, and inserts
it into a txt file... the problem, is that i have a field that is a
description.. this requires more than one word, and it also requires having
spaces, periods, etc... How can i get Flash to write a lengthy description
in
a way that it will understand later? i am assuming that i will need to use
codes like %20 for a space, etc..., but how can i make Flash translate this
so that the text file is written correctly?

If you didn't understand what i am trying to say, Email me privately, and i
will try to elaborate on it then.... I just don't want to waste too much
bandwidth :-) Thanks.

Regards,

John Ward
