Wow, thanks. I can't believe I made this mistake. This group is sooooooo helpful. I could probably have looked at this another 10 hours and not seen this. Thanks again. Also, I'd like to apologize for the double post. I posted the first with an email address different from the one I subscribed to the list with and I thought it wouldn't be accepted, so posted the second with the "correct" email address. Surprisingly, they both posted! Not sure how this happened. Stut wrote:

I've written my php script to accept either: 1) url parameters, when first invoked (so in this case I'm getting variables out of the $_GET global array), but then I create a form with method=PUT and, when this form is submitted and comes back into this same php script, I'm looking for 2) variables in the $_PUT global array However, I tested this just now and, for some reason I can't fathom, though the form I create has method=PUT, when it is submitted and comes back to my php script, $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] still contains "GET". Am I missing something fairly obvious here (quite possible!)? Once my php script is invoked with parameters in the url (i.e., implicit GET method), am I not able to create a form with method=PUT and have this form come back into my php script with values in the $_PUT global array?? Thanks for any help anyone can give me! I'm stumped!
You want POST not PUT. Nearly all browsers don't currently support PUT requests. -Stut
