1. I would put an url in the action in you form, for example "$PHPSELF" aka the same side sending the form. 2. A form field is global on the site receiving the form and can be accessed like any global variabel. 3. Be aware that the form you wrote doesn't send any value field, it only has a send button.
example: (sends a hidden field named MyVar) -------------------------------------------------- <form method=\"post\" action=\"$PHPSELF\"> <input type=hidden name=MyVar value=\"som_value\"> <input type=submit value=\"Daten eintragen\"> </form> -------------------------------------------------- This sends the value of MyVar to the page itself. This means that you can do your check like this: if (isset($MyVar)) { echo "Daten wurden eingetragen"; } Accessing post_vars on the receiving site is like accessing any global variabel in your script. You can print it with "echo $MyVar;" or "print($MyVar);" at any given point on the receiving site.
