What would cause a variable or even a $POST[] value to be erased? [/snip] Refreshing the script causes the variable arrays to be repopulated with empty or blank variables unless a session was used to hold the variables. Refreshing is essentially calling the script without passing any variables.Ah ha! <whew> So... $_REQUEST is the only way to go without getting into sessions? Hidden or other form methods will not work with out sessions, I guess. Damn, I wish I knew that four hours ago! : - ) I thought I didn't want to clutter the URL this time so I'd try that. Ha!
