Your web server is trying to find a directory with that long name. If you encode the entire string, you need to pass it in a new variable, then break it apart again. > Suggestions? Sorry, I gave some bad advice the first time. All you need to do is urlencode each of the variables individually. Something like this: $item_num_encoded = urlencode($item_num); [...] Then your link will be something like this: add_to_cart.php?item_num=$item_num_encoded Brad -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
