Thanks for your suggestion Mike. I had considered using sessions, but the way my shared server is configured at the moment (php 4.1.2) having cookies disabled also disables sessions. Until my subs run out and I change to another company, I'll have to stick with this method for now, or get a dedicated server.
I could ask the surfer to re-enable cookies, but I think most would click off. I lot of people are surfing with javascript and cookies disabled now. Shame really, as they are both useful. I could use: <a href="nextpage.php?<?php echo strip_tags(SID); ?>">Blah Blah</a> to pass the Session ID, so sessions will work and this is ok. Not sure whether this would be secure? I enjoyed learning about using a "tmp" dir though, and I'm sure this technique will come in for other things later. I've still got you in mind when my subs run out :-) Bob. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Brandonisio" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > A more secure version would be to use this same technique using session > variables instead of hidden form fields.
