RE:Re: [PHP] Problems processing a form; please help!

Hi, Thanks to your suggestion, I'm closer to a solution (no more blank screens). I'm using <form name="polls" action="default.php?" method="get"> where default.php is the page where you came from (can enter a vote). But: 1. I'm losing my "original" url arguments; e.g. default.php?nav_id=1&.... (argument for navigation in this case) Any way of preserving these arguments? 2. When I reload the page I "keep on voting". This because of the url: e.g. default.php?poll_id=1&poll_sub_id=2&... Maybe this is because I use an image as a "submit" button?!?! <input type="image" name="test" src="images/polls_submit.gif" width="57" height="14" border="0" alt=" Submit "> So I can't really use the if ($submit) { } construction you suggested?!?! Not enough knowledge about the subject, I know. I really need to get into this stuff... Thanks again, Simon.
