[snip] // Theme echo ' <form name="theme" action="options.php" target=right class=menu> <select name="theme">'; for($i=0;$i<sizeof($theme_name);$i++) { echo "<option value='".$i."'>".$theme_name[$i]."</option>\n"; }
echo '</select> <input type=submit name=get value=select METHOD=POST>'; // or: echo '</select> <input type=submit name=get value=select METHOD="POST">'; $var_from_dropdown = $_POST['theme']; exec("echo $var_from_dropdown > /tmp/varfromdropdown"); the exec line seems to works since it created the file. But it stays emty. [/snip] You need to place METHOD=POST in the original form tag and remove it from the submit tag. Try that HTH!
