[SalesForce] Landing Page Limitations in Cloud Pages [Salesforce Marketing Cloud]

This is my first time working with Cloud Pages and I've hit a snag almost immediately. I am attempting to build a custom preference center but the landing page appears to choke on the LookUpRows() call. Are Landing Pages in Cloud Pages somehow limited in the ampscript they can call? Is there documentation on this?

Thanks,
Bill

I can answer my own question now. I got in touch with one of the product specialists at SFMC and was informed that the failure of the requestParameter() method was a known bug. It was something that had not been enabled but was fixed with their update on Friday, 1/21/2015. I have confirmed that my code now works.

It is rather disturbing--but unfortunately not surprising--to me that SFMC would sell this product to a client and expect us to deliver a solution with such a basic, major function not working! I believe that when they are actually done with beta-testing this live product, it should support all the functions of the existing landing pages.
