It's hard to say without surfing to your site and trying it, and looking at the PHP source and HTML source. The most common answers, in order of usage, are: #1 You spelled the name="val1" and the $_POST['val1'] differently. Spelling counts. :-) #2 You don't understand the HTTP interaction, and are expecting it to do things in a way it just plain does not work. This is the hardest one to diganose and treat, as it's difficult to figure out what beginners THINK the web is doing, much less convince them that they're wrong. :-) The best solution here is to get Firefox, install the LiveHTTPHeaders extension to Firefox turn it on, visit a few simple/example sites that do what your site does to see how they work, and then visit your site to see what it does. #3 A distant third, but possible, cause, is various PHP settings such as GPC order and register_globals and that one about populating the long names can be different than one expects. Review your php.ini settings and search for "GPC" "register_globals" and, errr, "long_name" or "long_var_name" or something like that. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
