Hi
I Tried Single and Double Quotes.....$_POST array is still empty I also took out the Submit part as well ...still nothing This is such a simple example I don't know what else to do to simplify it. So I'm left with ... Buf := 'FirstName=Gary'; here is the Entire PHP Script... <?php $First = $_POST['FirstName']; echo "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"; echo $First; ?> What else could possibly be wrong? I do MUCH appreciate all your help trying to make this work.
