Hi Mike,

Your form method is "GET" right?

The HTTP "GET" method of passing parameters works by appending them to the 
form target URL.

If you change the form method to "POST" then they will be sent as POSTDATA 
with the request for the target and will not appear in the browser URL.

See the HTTP spec for more details.

HTH,

Chris
