Ajax ASP Server Side

[David Sampson]

I don't know if this is the best newsgroup for this question so let me
know which is better.

I am writing a webpage that, instead of using a Form to submit data to
the server, I want to use Ajax to send the data that I want saved to the
database.

The only way I know of to pickup the data that I want to save on the
server side is via the Request.BinaryRead method. The problem is this
returns a "SafeArray". I don't know how to convert this to a string so I
can parse the data to write to the database.

Any thoughts?

Are you using "classic" (COM-based) ASp or .Net? For the latter, you should
post your question to a group where those dotnet-knowledgeable people hang
out. I suggest microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet or the forums at
www.asp.net.
