I didn't notice if someone had replied to this yet or not, but sounds
like a classic globals issue.  Check your PHP.INI to see if you have
globals turned on?  I'm guessing you do for the Unix system but not on
the Windows box.
 
In PHP.INI (make sure you're looking at the same PHP.INI that PHP is
using):
register_globals = Off
 
It's good security to turn them off, then just use:
 
$formvariable = $_GET["formvariable"];
or
$formvariable = $_POST["formvariable"];
or
$formvariable = $_REQUEST["formvariable"];
 
Without seeing your code, it's hard to make any other guesses as to what
could be wrong.
 
Hope that helps.

        Trying this again. IT makes no sense that from one page to the
next the variable values are not being carried. They are in Unix, just
not in the code on windows? How do you process form data normally?
