Re: Re: [PHP] textarea

dear mr. wong, went through the information provided by the links you gave me. but it did not clear my doubt. i'm sorry for troubling you but what i want to ask is the following: in a form in a PHP page i have the following: <textarea name=descrip1 rows=5 cols=60 name=\"descrip1\"></textarea> the first form is posted to the next which tries to retrieve the value of the above textarea as follows: <textarea name=descrip1 rows=5 cols=60 value=\"$descrip1\"></textarea> but i am not getting the value of textarea of the first form retrieved in the second. thanks, diksha. _______________________________________________________________________ Odomos - the only mosquito protection outside 4 walls - Click here to know more! http://r.rediff.com/r?http://clients.rediff.com/odomos/Odomos.htm&&odomos&&wn
