Can there be more then one RTE in a single page?

   I love this thing so far, unfortunately with my current structure I can't seem to get it to work in more then one place at a time. 

. 
Quick Outline of my script:
  gb.asp
  It takes care of reading and writing to a guestbook. 
  Structure of the form is (admittedly) sloppy 
CASE

Read: Outputs guestbook 
Write: Lets you input to the guestbook, needs RTE 
Exit: abandons session and returns to the homepage 
Default case: Outputs write page, but does not go through the initial validation
I have duplication of the form inside the script: case 2 and default. I can't seem to figure a way to get it to work correctly with the instructions given:
If I put:

 Dim strFormName
 Dim strTextAreaName

up top of the code, and just put:

 strFormName = "form1"
 strTextAreaName = "comment"

 <!-- include the Web Wiz Rich Text Editor -->
 <!--#include file="RTE_editor_inc.asp" -->

in-front of each of the two cases it bombs out...

If I dim it each time I get a redefinition error...

I've tried pulling the form out, making it an include with all the code inside it... failed as well

What am I missing? Or am I asking of it something it just isn't designed to do? Should I redesign?

Source is available upon request, but it is constantly in a state of flux at the moment.

***Ended up just going with re-writing my own code... It is homework, so we wrote it in several small portions and it caused some shortcuts I had taken to become too difficult to continue to band-aid. I'd still like to know the answer to the above question though.

If you care to see what I am writing:

UN: a
PW: a

And I had to lock the Dbase, so you can't write it. After we finished our last guest book we looked a bit into security and had to break into our own and classmates scripts. My script had a bunch of holes, and anyone with the source could sql inject a user name and enter some javascript to get in. Only the referential integrity prevented a post in the database from a user that does not exist.

Leads me to another question: Does this RTE protect against manual html tags? If not, what is to prevent someone from jumping into javascript in the middle of this?
