Karl Bipolar (III) Inmate From: Phoenix Insane since: Jul 2001	posted 03-27-2003 01:07 Hello, Not sure where the problem is, but I think it has something to do with the content-type, maybe the encoding. Whats happening is all spaces are lost when my javascript function posts the data found in a textarea to an asp page, i'm creating an xmlhttp activex object in javascript to handle this post. When I get the data back... all spaces are lost. Basically, this asp page re-arranges this posted data and the javascript function which posted it then re-populates the textarea (with lost spaces). Any ideas? Karl karl@laketahoegymnasticscamp.com

Hello,
Not sure where the problem is, but I think it has something to do with the content-type, maybe the encoding. Whats happening is all spaces are lost when my javascript function posts the data found in a textarea to an asp page, i'm creating an xmlhttp activex object in javascript to handle this post. When I get the data back... all spaces are lost.
Basically, this asp page re-arranges this posted data and the javascript function which posted it then re-populates the textarea (with lost spaces).

Any ideas?
