hey khan,
 
The form this script is processing is encrypt="multipart/form-data" (so it can upload the image you selected)
 
request.form() doesn't work with encrypt="multipart/form-data"
 
Try request.("foldername")  (without the form)
 
If that doesn't work you might have to use pure ASP's scripting to retrieve the value of the text field.  (I'm not terribly familiar with it.. but I'm sure you can google it)
 
 
OR... you could separate the two by just placing the folder text input in it's own form on its own step.
 
Good luck,
JP
