Well, there's sort of a way to do that. Don't do anything. :-) The variable is already there, waiting for you to use it. You may want to study up on "scope" however: http://us.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php If you are in a function, you need to pass $name to that function, or you need to declare it "global" Passing it in is almost always better. If you just want the original $_GET data, raw and unfiltered, $_GET is a "superglobal" and you can juse it anywhere, any time. (Ditto for $_POST and all the others) -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want? I want you to buy a CD from some indie artist. http://cdbaby.com/browse/from/lynch Yeah, I get a buck.
