Hi, > You want to pass the variables while the URL Is still clean? The > only way I know, is to pass them trough a form as you yourself > wrote. To pass other variables to script, use hidden form elements > for each variable. However, I suggest passing the variable without > a form unless it must be securely passed. which method does PHP use to pass variables? When I use a hidden-form element this value must be send to the script as well (in the HTML header or HTML body) and the URL is "clean". So it should be possible to simulate that behavior with the header() function or something like that?!? When I use Header("Location: $BASEURL?aVar=" . rawurlencode($aVar)); everybody can see the variables. Isn't it possible to simulate the "hidden-form element"-version with that function? Stephan
