I personally don't see a problem with using get or post vars, but to keep the user from being able to manipulate it do this. This could also be in a header file included at the top of all pages: //page1.php and page2.php session_start(); $_SESSION['page'] = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; //page3.php session_start(); $page = $_SESSION['page'] // use $page somehow . . . -- Thanks! -Shawn http://www.spidean.com
