I have a variable that I am moving the request.vars(0) into and when i look
at in the HTML view it has a NONE value. it is strange to me, because it
has to have this value in order to fill out the original SQL form. I am
pulling from the form, and I even tried to pull it from the record variable
which loads the data from db.bike.
thanks for any help you can offer!!
Regards,
