Hi

yes and if your using IIS then you may have issues doing it server side as
well. in particular if you do sometig like this

if request.form("submit")="Logo Press" then response.redirect logo_press.asp
else response.redirect some_place_else.asp


then the form post data is not passed on to the redirected page. i found
some stuff to do with 307's...but it all adds to a pain in the ...

D
ps - i guess you could recreate and pop your form on the imbetween page
