Instead, you are trying to use a variable ($comp) that has not been defined. This is not usually a problem with PHP. However, PHP has many different levels of error reporting. The most strict level of error reporting will complain if a variable is not set when you use it. Try doing the two following things: Change the line that reads: if ($comp) { to if (isset ($comp)) { - or - Add this line at the top of your code: error_reporting (E_ALL & ~ E_NOTICE); This will lower the error reporting to a level that is easier for beginners to deal with. Good Luck! --zak >ex: >if ($comp) { > bla bla bla >} else { >echo "<form name='form' action='$PHP_SELF">"; >echo "<input type='text' name='comp'>"; >echo "<input type='submit' value='get it'>"; >echo "</form>"; > >or > >echo "<form name='form' action='$PHP_SELF">"; >echo "<input type='text' name='comp'>"; >echo "<input type='submit' value='get it'>"; >echo "</form>"; > >print "$comp"; > > >It always said that : >Warning: Undefined variable: comp in c:\homepage\modify.php on line 10
