Re: Global Vars

$_GET['variable_name'] for GET variables and $_POST['variable_name'] for POST variables. Change the "variable_name" to whatever was in your form, for example the below variable name is "cust_name" <input type="text" name="cust_name"> For session it would be $_SESSION['session_name'] etc etc The above should get you going, but read up in the manual.
