AARRGGHHH! Vague, generalized, woolly!! SHOW US the relevant bits of code. SHOW US what you get printed out, especially anything that isn't what you expect, and tell us exactly what you did expect. > Where I now have done is added this code block into the search page: > > <?php > $queryString = ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']); > $Ind = $_POST['Ind']; > $State = $_POST['State']; > $TType = $_POST['TType']; > $JTitle = $_POST['JTitle']; > $City = $_POST['City']; > $Days = $_POST['Days']; > $Recs = $_POST['Recs']; > > > It is not complete obviously.

The QueryString > though does return the correct values. SPECIFICS, man, SPECIFICS!! SHOW US the form -- we can't even begin to guess what data your script will see without knowing what the form says. Preferably tell us *exactly* what each control on the form was set to when you submitted it. > $queryString = ($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']); What is in $queryString after this? var_dump() it and show us the result. Is it what you expect? If not, what *did* you expect? What is in $_POST before you start the next batch of assignments? var_dump() it and show us the result. Is it what you expect? If not, what *did* you expect? > $Ind = $_POST['Ind']; > $State = $_POST['State']; > $TType = $_POST['TType']; > $JTitle = $_POST['JTitle']; > $City = $_POST['City']; > $Days = $_POST['Days']; > $Recs = $_POST['Recs']; > > > > I'm sure none of this makes sense. It may do, but it's mostly useless without the specifics. Cheers!
