lets see if I can clearify my statement. first I am new to mod_perl. Now, my form is using post. I am using some debug messages that will output, in html format, the contents of $fdat. So, when I select next page, after making a selection from the combo box, i expected to see something like the following: fdat{cmbClientKey} = <something> I do not get this unless I have the items I posted in the previous message. ... -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 14, 2001 10:18 AM To: Boyd, David; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Looking for answers using mod_perl and windows nt.

If you're saying that you would expect the result of pressing a submit button in a form to be that request is sent like 'http://some.host/file.pl?combo=value', then you need to ensure that the form in your HTML is set to GET rather than POST style encoding. But that's not really a mod_perl issue...
