That sounds the likely answer to me too - you don't generally try to send a parameter to something you're including. if you're just trying to go to that page after executing some code, do a print "Location:yadayadayada...?id=KnChooseBoots"

I have never tried. I think php will try to find a file called "poll.php?id=KnChooseBoots" not a file called poll and give argument for it. Also why do you need to put the parameter if the variable id is already set?
