Hi Michael, I have set up a couple test pages using session variable like this: --------------------------------------- <? session_start(); ?> <html> <head> </head> <body> <? if (isset($radars_form)) { $products = $radars_form; session_register( "products" ); print "<p>Your products have been registered</p>"; } ?> <form method=post> <select name="radars_form[]" multiple size=6> <option>RA772 <option>RA40 Series <option>RA720 <option>RA723 <option>RA725 <option>RA713 <option>Radars General </select> <p /> <input type="submit" value="choose"> </form> <a href="autopilots_form.php">Next page</a> </body> </html> ---------------------------------------------- then the second page like this - ---------------------------------------------- <? session_start(); ?> <html> <head> </head> <body> <? if (isset($autopilots_form)) { $products = $autopilots_form; session_register( "products" ); print "<p>Your products have been registered</p>"; } ?> <form method=post> <select name="autopilots_form[]" multiple size=6> <option>ap11 <option>ap12/ap14 <option>ap20 series <option>ap35 <option>ap45 <option>ap9mk3 <option>tiller/wheel pilots <option>wp5000 </select> <p /> <input type="submit" value="choose"> </form> <a href="plotters_form.php">Next page</a> </body> </html> ----------------------------------------------- and the last one like this ----------------------------------------------- <? session_start(); print session_encode(); ?> <html> <head> </head> <body> <? if ( isset($autopilots_form)) { print "Your choices:<ol>"; foreach ( $autopilots_form as $p ) print "<li>$p"; } if ( isset($radars_form)) { print "Your choices:<ol>"; foreach ( $radars_form as $p ) print "<li>$p"; } ?> <a href="radars_form.php">back</a> </body> </html> ----------------------------------------- The last won't work right because of the if statements. How do I get it to print all the results? I tried adding and between the if statements, but that doesn't work, as I expected, I don't see anything in my php books that will help with this bit. I want to be able to pick items from all pages, and at the end print them to the screen and email them to a person. I welcome any help I can get, Thanks Chip Wiegand > Mick > > On Tue, 30 Jan 2001, Chip wrote: > > > I am trying to build a multi-part form and am > > using the example from the book Beginning PHP4 > > by Choi, Kent, Lea, et al. in chapter 8. > > Here's what I want to do - > > form_page1 - 10 input fields size=3 > > then onwards to > > form_page2 - 5 input fields size=3 > > then onwards to > > form_page3 - 5 input fields size=3 > > (and about 5 or 6 pages more) > > form_page10 has submit button > > then the thankyou page with a list of the > > items chosen on the previous pages. > > > > These items will be brochures, the text-boxes > > are for a quantity.
