Html forms to php scripts

I have the following issue between my html forms and php scripts. Html file (input.html) looks like this: <form action="input.php" method=post> <input type="text" name="ttt"> <p><input type=submit name=submit value="Submit"></p> </form> Php file (input.php) looks like this: <? echo $ttt; ?> I can input text (i.e. superman) and then click submit. The resulting php page returns: supermanttt=superman It seems to me that it must be something in the php.ini file that needs to be changed, but I can't identify what exactly. Any help would be appreciated. php 4.2.2 Tim Van Zee ITS Network Specialist Governors State University
