oops re above: as i was saying, with "--enable-track-vars", the above strategy makes it real easy to globalize form data within functions, or to pass form data arrays to functions: <input type="text" name="test[color]" value="blue"> etc, etc. then in your function, pass $test to extract() to turn the array data into global vars. or function my_func($HTTP_POST_VARS){ extract($HTTP_POST_VARS); // use all your vars by name! }
