retrieving form collections

looping with ASP

[mattglet]

i have a page that has 10 rows where you can enter in friends names and emails (viral marketing), all in one form.

i.e.
<form>
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type = "text" name = "name1"></td>
<td><input type = "text" name = "email1"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type = "text" name = "name2"></td>
<td><input type = "text" name = "email2"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type = "text" name = "name3"></td>
<td><input type = "text" name = "email3"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type = "text" name = "name4"></td>
<td><input type = "text" name = "email4"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

now, i am wondering if there is a way to loop through the contents of the form collection, and perform an action.

<%
for i=0 to collection.count
if request.form("name" & i) <> "" then
name = request.form("name" & i)
email = request.form("email" & i)
end if
next
%>

i know collection.count is incorrect, but i'm just trying to convey the idea. my dilemma is that maybe only 2 rows are filled out... i only need to perform the action on the data that is entered, not on the blank fields. can i dynamically loop through the form names like that? i'm trying to condense 10 separate actions down into one loop.

i'm having a hard time explaining this, so if you are confused don't hesitate to ask questions. thanks to anyone who understands.

I think something like this could help:

For Each lsFrmField In Request.Form
 Select Case lsFrmField 
  Case "tbsEmail", "cmbKontakt", "tbsCc", "tbsBcc", "tbsSubject", "tbnImportance", "tbsAnswerfile"
   ' do whatever you want with the header-fields
   lsMsgBody = lsMsgBody
  Case Else
   ' compose body
   lsMsgBody = lsMsgBody & Request.Form
 End Select
Next
