Ask your host to set-up a .htaccess file to turn register_globals ON, or you need to do some research in the archives for "register globals"... it's been discussed to death. Basically, instead of a form value being something like $firsName, it's now $_POST['firstName'] or $_GET['firstName'] (depending on the the method specified in the <form > tag). A quick fix would be to take note of the variables you're expecting from the form, and re-assign them at the top of your script(s), eg: <? $first = $_POST['first']; $last = $_POST['last']; $dob = $_POST['dob']; $favcolor = $_POST['favcolor']; ?> <html> ...
