I hope this isn't a dumb question.

I need to get a value from a form
in this case a password and run it
through a little decryption sql
and then overwrite the decrypted
text in the field.

The problem is that I can't get the
value in the first place.

I know it is in l_arg_values, but
I've had little luck with the following
methods.

1.

htp.print(WEBDB.wwv_name_value.get_string(l_arg_names, l_arg_values,
'PASSWORD'));
2.

htp.print(WEBDB.wwv_name_value.get_string(l_arg_names, l_arg_values,
'PASSWORD','YES'));
3.
l_arg_values(30)

The third option at least returns something. I get AAAGpUAABAAAEU9AAb when I am looking for b0a1b3b3b7afb2a4.

Does anyone know what this format is??
I'm at my wit's end.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben

htp.p('<BR>'||l_arg_values(1));
htp.p('<BR>'||l_arg_values(29));
htp.p('<BR>'||l_arg_values(30));
htp.p('<BR>'||l_arg_values(31));

returns

ROWID
AAAGpUAABAAAEU9AAa
AAAGpUAABAAAEU9AAb
AAAGpUAABAAAEU9AAc
