Remarks: ASP Request Object BinaryRead Method

The BinaryRead method is used to read the raw data sent by a POST request. This provides low-level access as opposed to the formatted data provided by the Request.Form collection. Once you have used the BinaryRead method, any call to a variable in the Request.Form collection will cause an error. Conversely, calling BinaryRead after accessing the Request.Form collection will also cause an error. Remember, if you access a variable in the Request object without specifying a collection, the Request.Form collection may be accessed, bringing this rule into force.
