And this is not even the edited data. I >should pass The variable $Edited but I can't get it to work My opinion is that you're running into the classic problem of how to get javascript variables into php variables. As I see it, you have three ways to do this (anyone think I'm wrong, please correct me): 1. You place them into your dB with js and then pull them back out in php: <http://www.devshed.com/c/a/MySQL/Loading-JavaScript-Arrays-with-MySQL-Data/> 2. You use ajax and plug the js variables values into like php variables. If you want to go this route, it's not complicated -- I can demonstrate. Please let me know. 3. You can try in your html using an id="Edited" for js and a name="Edited" for php -- it worked for a previous like-problem posted on this list. But I don't know if it's applicable in your case. hth's tedd -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
