This page is looking for a var, let's say called "$curAction"; $curAction is not present the script knows that you're new to this site and calls a function called "displayWelcome" (wherever this function is defined ;)). <?php $curAction = $HTTP_POST_VARS["curAction"]; switch ($curAction) { case "displayForm1": { displayForm1(); break; } case "displayForm2": { displayForm2(); break; } case "logoff": { displayGoodbye(); logout(); break; } // And so on... } function displayForm1() { ?><form><!-- html goes here --></form><?php } // ...and so forth ?> So this switch casecade handles what content is to be displayed, which looks as if you where getting different pages... Better now? Cheers, Kiko ----- It's not a bug, it's a feature. christoph starkmann mailto:kiko@nfq.de http://www.fh-augsburg.de/~kiko ICQ: 100601600 -----
