Hello All,

Im wondering if it is possible to get variables posted by a HTML form with a VBScript in another page.

Eg.
PAGE1.html:
<form action="page2.html">
some random form stuff which gets submitted to page2
</form>

PAGE2.html
<script language="VBScript" type="text/VBScript">
script that gets these posted variables
</script>

Is it possible (with just VBScript & internet Explorer)?
Im thinking of building a very, very basic website frontend for controlling mushclient on a remote computer...

You could use the chat protocol.

Its actually pretty handy for that, if you do a little tweaking (making callbacks that act like triggers/aliases so you can do things, as well as changing notes to chat messages).

Ive had pretty decent luck with it.
