Make sure IIS is not running. That'll cause all kinds of trouble.

I opened the html file using IE 6.0. What I'm thinking is there may be an issue with some setting on the web server. The php statements I posted were the first few statements in the script, so apparently the script didn't see the variables, so I'll have to review the httpd.conf and php.ini files to find whatever settings is preventing the acctnum, year, and month from being passed to the php script. You say: I opened the html file using IE 6.0 I don't like the sound of that. Do you mean you double-clicked the file and it opened in IE or do you mean you put Q:\... into the IE address bar or what? What you should be doing is putting http://localhost/your-file.html in the IE address bar. What is your document-root? Is the Q:\thingy part of it? -- Cheers -- Tim -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
