$sale_value would have worked if it hadn't been in single quotes, I believe. (Assuming it was populated.).

Which it wasn't.. ;-) according to Gary's last post. He assigned it now with 'sale'.. however, I think it should rather be in double quotes ("sale") if he wants to get the posted value. echo $sale_value; now works because sale_value has been assigned a value. But: echo $_COOKIE['sale_cookie']; I would guess will still not work.. until landing on the next page, or reloading the first page. When you put it in quotes, you

were making the cookie's value a string instead of a variable. So, the value would actually have literally been $sale_value, rather than the value for that variable. It is working with $_POST['sale'] because there are no single quotes. :-p.

Gary, if you want to post your "working" code, we could probably tell you the "why's"... and it would also cater to my curiosity. ;-) Donovan -- =o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o=o D.
