Hi, I have this HTML/JS page that switches images clicking on the radio buttons and call template.php with the image ID as parameter: http://portulan-online.net/einstein.html Now, I need to make it a PHP page, because it is going to receive a parameter from the URL that calls it and pass it as is to template.php

Mário: The key here to remember is that javascript uses ID and php uses NAME for inputs.

That's incorrect. A form will function perfectly well with only name= attributes, and no ids, and it's quite possible for JavaScript to address the form elements using only the names (in fact, it's easier than via the ids as there's a short syntax for it!).

Incorrect or not, it works. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
