That's what I figured, that the raw data was destroyed when it was parsed. I guess, for this particular instance MSIE, in a special circumstance (uploading favs. I think?), sends data to the server without following form-urlencoded standards (just text). The question origionally was how to get at this data as-was without parsing. I guess in this case the answer is to undo the work the parser did and reconstruct the data yourself. Makes sense, and was probably the best way to do it anyway.... Thanks John
