Following extraction helped me to solve the problem that, variables are missing in the *.php after submition. >>Hi there... The problem is actually that in PHP 4.2, Register Globals is automatically defaulted to OFF. This means that variables that were normally in the global space such as GET and POST variables are no longer in the global space by default. PHP Announcement: http://www.php.net/release_4_2_0.php You can still force the old default behavior by changing the php.ini file and set the value for register_globals to "On". This will allow you to access the variables as they are named in the forms Documentation: http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.register-globals << By the way, I found this Information on expert-exchange.com http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/PHP/Q_20293768.html My configuration: PHP 4.2.3 Apache 2.0.43 Windows 2k Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-13 21:25:05] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I think the problem is PHP4.
