Second you can't access arrays like print($xtabel) that will only print the constant Array not the values in there, you're gonna need a loop for that. I think the best solution for you would be to create sessions and register the array within the session. And like I said, making a POST form with a GET URL attached to it makes no sense to me at all. What you could try, but I'm guessing here is the following. print("<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=\"script.php\">\n"); $val = current($xtabel); print("<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=xtabel[] VALUE=\"$val\">\n"); /* You need the [] at xtabel cuz else the older value will be overwritten, this will make it clear to PHP that it's an array/hash*/ while ($val = next($xtabel) { print("<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME=xtabel[] VALUE=\"$val\">\n"); } print("INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT NAME=SUBMIT>\n"); print("</FORM>"); I HAVE NOT!!! tested this but I think it might work. Since I didn't check it might have some typos, you'll have to try I'm low on time and like I said I'm new to this also, so no guarentees :-).
