Really scripting, but, internet as well
I've got a simple form:
[link|http://www.cpeonline.com/cpenew/Survey3-finalftp.htm|http://www.cpeonline...vey3-finalftp.htm]
No, I did not create the form, yes, I know the lack of radio buttons is just plain stupid, no, I will not be fixing it or the crappy variables names. I'll just get another one that I'll have to fix again and again.
That form feeds an ASP script, which packages up the variables and emails it to me (for now).
The script is essentially:
<%
txtMessage = "Survey results" & vbCrLf
txtMessage = txtMessage & "Title1 :" & Request.Form("Title1") & vbCrLf
txtMessage = txtMessage & "Title2 :" & Request.Form("Title2") & vbCrLf
txtMessage = txtMessage & "Title3 :" & Request.Form("Title3") & vbCrLf
txtMessage = txtMessage & "Title4 :" & Request.Form("Title4") & vbCrLf
...
(all the variables)
and then email via:
CDONTS.NewMail object.
The wierd part is none of the variable data gets filled in.
I get my email message, and it looks like this:
Survey results
Title1 :
Title2 :
Title3 :
...
I've done this before, it was straight forward.
But now it does not work.
Any hints?

Submit type
The GET/PUT submit have different methods for variables that are sent as part of the URL vs. variables that are submitted:
' Submitted form parameters
Request.Form("Title1")
' URL supplied parameters
Request.QueryString("Title1")
Actually the better way to do it is:
Request("Title1")
And let the interpreter figure how the parameter got sent.

Jay has the correct answer
My first guesses never seem correct. Oh, that and you need the target to be an ASP file.
[edit: yes, i looked and it is an asp file. Tried the example on my local server and it works]

The table summary attribute should be used to describe
the table structure. It is very helpful for people using
non-visual browsers. The scope and headers attributes for
table cells are useful for specifying which headers apply
to each table cell, enabling non-visual browsers to provide
a meaningful context for each cell.

The only thing I see is the enctype
The only things I see at a quick glance is the enctype set to "text/plain". That isn't the default type, and may be screwing it up at either client or server.
value="on" is redundant on a checkbox also, but I don't so how that could be messing you up.

The checkk on is throwing me as well
If it it one, shouldn;t I see check marks filled in already?
But I don't.

Use the checked attribute
<input type='checkbox' name=title1' checked>

value='on' just says the submit value is the string "on"
which is the default - which is why it's redundant

I've fixed the missing ';' on the   entries
The guy giving me this crap is generating it in MS-Word.
