What you said is correct. That is what I'm doing.

If I use Response.redirect("score.asp") I still dont get the form variables.
If I use meta tag <meta http-equiv=""refresh"" content=""1;url=score.asp""
/>
I dont get them either. Is there a way to get them after I process the
submitted form?
You said something to do with client side scripting, how would I use this?

I agree about using GET method.

thanks,
Will
