People have already answered this question, but here are some additional tips.
Always make sure you include the NAME attribute of an INPUT - otherwise it can cause some headaches when you try to get the submitted data on the next page. So: <input type="text" name="TrackingNum" value="<?php echo $tracking_num ?>"> You can also shorten the echo/print statement down to: <input type="text" name="TrackingNum" value="<?=$tracking_num;?>"> I've heard that you can leave off the semi-colon, but I just consider it good coding habit to always end statements with semi-colons. - Jonathan -----Original Message----- From: Luis R.
