Hi all, I'm using PHP to retrieve data from a form and pass it to a 'confirm' page. Here the data is echoed and the user presses a 'confirm' button to finally mail the information to us. This page is a basic html page (confirm.html) with some inline php which displays the relevant information. At the bottom there is a form 'confirm' button which has the action set to 'confirm.php' Confirm.php simply emails the data. The problem is that the variables are not getting passed to the confirm.php page - presumedly because they are not part of a valid form (confirm.html contains no form fields, just the 'confirm' button) I know the variables are all valid as I can echo them fine on the confirm.html page - I just don't know how to pass them onto the new page when they're not part of a form. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Cheers and thanks kim
