And you could, at some point in debugging, use var_dump($_POST). But in the normal course of events, the data in $_POST isn't sent "back" to the browser by PHP under the hood. That said: You should not be cramming things into $_POST. $_POST is what comes *FROM* the browser. Treat it as "read only" unless you want to make yourself miserable down the road some day. What are you putting into $_POST and why? And how does that communicate from one script to another??? Are you cramming things into $_POST and then passing them on through cURL or something??? -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
