I know this is probaly very easy but here goes

I have a form on my site for people to register, they fill in their name , email, username , password etc, then this is submitted via the "check new user" server behavior.This works fine but what i want to do is if the username already exists then obviously they have to fill out the form again with a different username, but now i want the form to already be filled in with the stuff they entered before EXCEPT the username and password.I have tried this with Request.Form and Request.Querystring with no joy cna anyone help?

Thanks
Dave

You can try this! It just makes the page go back one page. This way your user entering the data will still be there.

The Request.Form should work...maybe just calling it from the request variable ...bindings...
Did you make sure to use POST or Get? with request.form and request.querystring?
