take the following code and do some experimentation:
<?
echo '<pre>';
echo "POST vars: \n";
var_dump($_POST);
echo "GET vars: \n";
var_dump($_GET);
echo '</pre>';
?>
stick that in your page that contain the form and start playing with
different form fields, different form fields names, etc, etc - everytime you
submit you'll know see what's being submitted.
enjoy

Hello, Probably a stupid one but anyway... In PHP. Is it possible to point to a variable with the HTML form name by which it was posted from? Example: //point to the variable with something like or somenthing??? $AddNew.SomeVarthis is not asp.NET/asp.NOT, so "no" to that question. god only knows what you mean by the form examples below...
<form name="AddNew" method="post" action="<? $PHP_SELF ?>"> $SomeVar = "Add"; </form> <form name="DeleteOld" method="post" action="<? $PHP_SELF ?>"> $SomeVar = "Del"; </form> Or do I just have name the variables uniquely?I would, in general, recommend calling every $x. ;-)
Thanks -Will
