Water Cooler v2

Just trying to experiment with the Request.BinaryRead(count) method.
What's wrong with this script?

<SCRIPT Language="VBScript" runat="server">

Dim b
b = Request.BinaryRead(Request.TotalBytes)
Dim Counter

If IsArray(b) Then
    If Not IsEmpty(b) Then
        Response.Write(LBound(b) & ", " & UBound(b))
        'For Counter = LBound(b) To UBound(b)
        '    Response.Write(CStr(b(Counter)))
        'Next
    End If
End If

</SCRIPT>

What are we looking for? What makes you think something is wrong with it?
Symptoms? error messages?

If TotalBytes = 0 then b contains a variant marked as an Array but the
pointer to the array is null.
Since it is an array it isn't empty.
Using LBound ot UBound on an undimensioned array results in a subscript out
of range error.
