Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-10 02:53:18] php@pateconsulting.com I have 2 files: index.html and user-auth.php. The index.html gathers the data and sends it to user-auth.php via a simple form using the get method. index.html ---------------------------------------- <html> <head> <title>Login</title> </head> <body> <form method="get" action="user-auth.php" name="login"> <table border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td>Username:</td><td><input type="text" name="username"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Password:</td><td><input type="password" name="password"></td> </tr> </table> <p align="center"><input type="submit" name="btnsubmit" value="Login"></p> </form> </body> </html> ---------------------------------------- user-auth.php ---------------------------------------- <? echo "Usename: $username<br>Password: $password"; ?> ------------------------------------ The variable values appear in the url: http://192.168.1.73/user-auth.php?username=user&password=&btnsubmit=Login However, nothing appears on the user-auth.php page even though the echo command should display them. When I do a View -> Source, all I see is "<br>".
