I created a form using ASPMAILER code from
http://www.cgiware.com/aspmailer.shtml
I've used this code for other forms and they work fine.

This form is contains more fileds than any other form I've created in the past.
When all the fields are filled out the form will not post, it doesn't do
anything.

After I delete some information from any of the fields the form will post.
It appears that there is a limit on the amount of information that the form
can post.
I'm not sure if this is controlled by the form script or some setting on the
server.
Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Below is the link to my form

this is the form tag---
<form action="aspmailer_reg2.asp">

suggest you Name the form, and specify a Method, and an enctype.
Not sure, but it's probably the form is defaulting to Get as the method,
which appends the data to the url. That has a limit of total characters of
255 i think. Use Post as the method.

You can fix/change it with the Property Inspector, and use the Reference
panel's html reference to check on the attributes of the form tag and the
possible values of them.

Alan,

It was the post code that I was missing.
Thanks a million.
