You don't understand server side code
- giving us a .asp page URL that has been processed by the asp engine (or 1 form field) tells us nothing about your code (or any
error in it (the asp has already been processed so no one can see your real code)
Open your page in FP in Code view
copy the whole form code (w/ your 2 form fields T1 & T2) and paste it in a reply so we can see the initial code
Provide From <form>...thru </form>
