Put your action here:
} else {
$content .= get_content("$template", $HTML);
}
+
+ $HTML->{ACTION} = $action;
+
print $content;
}
You COULD be putting it inside a if statement, which may be ingnored.
Putting it JUST above the print $content;
would put it outside of EVERY if statement.
Try that, then post back the result. If you already have it there, then also
post back, I'll look at it AGAIN.
