Using Xinha with ASP

I am a definite Newbie to Xinha and am looking to find out if and how I can use it to add RTE to an existing ASP based application that utilizes textareas to allow entry of data.  I understand how to add the code on the form itself to reference the text areas and display the editor on the form.  With ASP you use the POST method to send the form data to the server and on the page that you post the data to you use the Request objects Form method and reference the name/id of the form element (say for instance MyTextArea1). My question is what EXACTLY do I need to do to get to the data on that server based (back-end)  processing page?  I am sure there is code that must be on the form page to allow for the proper posting of the data. Do you also need to add code on the back-end ASP/ASPX page as well?

Thanks.

Re: Using Xinha with ASP

Further clarification on Xinha and ASP question: The application uses Classic ASP (circa ASP 3.0) and the Request.Form method is used to retrieve the form data sent via the POST method.  I am trying to implement Xinha to add RTE to the Textareas on the web UI (front-end) pages without breaking the code on the back-end (or limiting it to minimal revision).  Thanks.

There's nothing special you have to do, the editor content is copied to the textarea on submit
