In a form, i have the user specify the bgcolor via radio buttons. when they submit and it goes to the next page, how do i make the bgcolor of the document = their color?

hi Dex...

assuming that your form looks something like:

<form name="form1" method="post" action="passcolor.asp">
<input type="radio" name="radiobutton" value="cc0000">Red<br>
<input type="radio" name="radiobutton" value="ffffff">White<br>
<input type="radio" name="radiobutton" value="006699">Blue<br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

...then the next page ("passcolor.asp") could look like this:

<%
dim passColor
passColor = request.form("radiobutton")
%>
<html>
<head>
<title>background color</title>
</head>
<% response.write("<body bgcolor='#" & passColor & "'>") %>
cowabunga!
</body>
</html>

it's primitive....
but it works :)

is that sorta what you were looking for?
