Cannot pull POST data

[wfcentral]

I am trying to convert some code from PHP to ASP and got about 99% through it and have an error on one line.

On page sort.asp there is code that allows the user to drag a list of items around to put them in order. Each time they drag an item it uses script to push the new location to update.asp where code will update a database with the new list order.

My problem is that the POST data is not coming across.

sort.asp uses this...

<script>
$(document).ready(
function() {
$("#sortme").sortable({
update : function () {
serial = $('#sortme').sortable('serialize');
$.ajax({
url: "update.asp",
type: "post",
data: serial,
error: function(){
alert("theres an error with AJAX");
}
});
}
});
}
);
</script>

update.asp uses this to pull the POST data, but I have checked and it is getting nothing...

strMenu = Request.Form("menu")

your ASP code looks correct. have you verified that the variable serial has data with an alert ?

thanks for the suggestion. I finally gave up and switched back to PHP. I think the issue is that the PHP code was processing an array and I was trying to do in ASP without an array.
